Description: No records that I sell will be less than VG, and most will be VG+ or better, at least for now. I've had these at least 30 years, so they're either first presses or early reissues. You are buying or bidding on a 1973 1st press Terra Haute press LP, Deep Purple - Made In Japan Warner Bros. 2WS-2701. I did play test this and found it to be to VG+ to EX. It plays excellent with one caveat, there is a tiny chip on side III just a little way into the second track "Lazy".(see last pic) This didn't cause a skip, just a tick or pop for about 4 or 5 rev. A very enjoyable listen. This has company paper sleeves, one has about a 3 inch seam split. I'm not a collector so I don't really grade jackets, but I would say this cover is VG to VG+ with no seam splits but plenty of ring wear and some cover paper separation on spine, as well as a little white ?? paint maybe at top of spine and a little on same area of front cover. Jackets should be able to be judged by you with eBays magnifier feature. (see pics). I give up on trying to get matrix pics. I try to match on Discogs as best as I can. If you want to know the matrix numbers better than my interpretation email me, I'll try to get decent pics. This has short ultrasonic clean (if it's needed) and distilled water spin clean rinse. I will combine shipping.(see pics, they are the biggest part of description) You get what you see in the pics. Check shipping details. My records ship properly packaged in actual record mailers that I purchase. See my other listings. Please leave positive feedback when received if you are pleased with purchase. I will leave positive feedback in return. EX+ (Near Mint): Vinyl: Nearly flawless, with possible minor scuffs or hairlines only visible under strong light. EX (Excellent): Vinyl: Bright, with minor surface wear and hairlines, not affecting play. VG+ (Very Good Plus): Vinyl: Obvious wear, scuffs and hairlines, plays with some noise but no major sound issues. A little crackle or faint tick. VG (Very Good): Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, somehow plays with persistent noise but no skips. PLEASE READ! If there is a problem please contact me before leaving negative or neutral feedback, and we can work something out. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
