The CD, JEWEL CASE AND INSERTS are all in excellent plus overall condition - the CD has some very light marks on the reflective side of the disc - nothing serious! Any picky audiophile should be happy with the condition of this rare, out of print CD. The jewel case shows a bit of shelf wear...see pictures with this listing as they are of the actual item.

This CD is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).

Do not let this rarity slip by!
