    Picked this up from the fabulous Olaf's Record Store in Sevenoaks last week. Wow, probably the best condition second-hand vinyl I've ever purchased. Sleeve is in fantastic condition and the vinyl is spotless and free of any background, pops and crackles! Always a joy when you pick up something so old in such great condition. Fantastic album as well, Costello really is a genius.
