Bruce
Springsteen
Darkness on the Edge
of Town

WITH ORIGINAL DIECUT INNER, AND RARE PINK LYRIC SHEET !!!!



FIRSTLY JUST A QUICK INTRODUCTION ABOUT THIS ALBUM.
FIRSTLY, NOT REALLY SURE WHERE IT CAME FROM, AS I CAN NOT EVER REMEMBER BUYING IT, SO PROBABLY LEFT BY SOMEONE BACK IN THE DAY AT ONE OF MY CRAZY PARTIES.
I MUST POINT OUT THAT ALTHOUGH IT PLAYS THROUGH WITH NOTHING SERIOUS I WOULD ONLY GRADE THE AUDIO AS VG+, BUT PLEASE DO CHECK OUT THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION !!!!

THIS IS 'THE BOSS', OR BETTER KNOWN AS MR BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, AND HIS 4th ALBUM, RELEASED ON JUNE 2nd 1978. FROM LONG RANCH, NEW JERSEY, AND HE HAS BEEN MAKING ALBUMS FOR 50 YEARS !!!!

DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!


THIS IS AN ORIGINAL  1978 UK 1ST PRESS  :: SCBS 86061  A1    : SCBS 86061  B1 .


ON THE ORANGE SUNBURST CBS LABEL :: SCBS 86061 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS, AND IN SOLID CONDITION, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, WITH A BIT MORE HEAVIER ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER. THERE ARE SOME BITS OF LIGHT RUB ON THE SPINE AND EDGES, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, SO PLEASE CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS, THANK YOU. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A BIT OF VERY FAINT INDENT WRITING ON THE FRONT TOP LEFT CORNER, WHERE THE COVER WAS USED WHILE SOMEONE WAS WRITING. IT IS VERY FAINT, AND YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE EVEN NOTICED IT, BUT IT HAS TO BE MENTIONED, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ . 

VINYL ::  NOW THE VINYL PLAYS AS MENTIONED ABOVE, WITH NOTHING SERIOUS, SO NO STATIC, CRACKLE, SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, OR CLICKS, AND ALL I HEARD WAS....

ON SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT, THE VINYL LOOKS FINE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ARE THERE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND SOME VARIOUS SIZED COSMETIC HAIRLINES, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  VG+ . 

LABELS ::  AGAIN NO ISSUES, JUST A COUPLE OF VERY FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE :: EX .

ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS INNER ::  NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, WITH DIE CUT CORNERS AND DIE CUT OPENING EDGE, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ONE DESCRIBED ABOVE  :: EX .
