Various ‎– The Singing Detective: Music From The BBC TV Serial (Big Band Jazz TV Soundtrack LP) (1986)

Superb UK 1st release. 

Featuring original music from the 1940s.

The TV series was written by Dennis Potter and starred Michael Gambon and Joanne Whalley.

Condition
VINYL: VG. Looks clean on visual inspection. A few scuffs, marks and hairlines across both sides, but nothing major – and no deep scratches. Some misting visible in some areas. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is decent throughout. Some mild surface noise at run-ins and between cues - due in part to the quality of these archive recordings. Plays with no skipping, jumping or sticking.
OUTER SLEEVE/COVER: EX. Colours clear and unfaded on superb artwork gloss sleeve. Very minor scuffs to corners. Edges and spine in great shape. Aperture has some nicks and peeling but nothing major. Diagonal crease in bottom right and top left – and a few other creases. Light creases in from spine on front and back. A few creases in from top. No other obvious defects. An excellent example.
INNER SLEEVE: VG. White paper sleeve with curved corners. Minor yellowing, crinkling and creasing. Intact.
