Zappa In new York - 1978 UK Discreet label 10-track 3rd Issue 2LP Set

1978 UK Reprise label 10-track vinyl 2LP set - Zappa's classic live album recorded December 1976 at the Palladium, New York - this is the censored or reduced version without 'Punky's Whips'.

Vinyls have the generic yellow company labels with top large fonted company name in red with black shadow effect.

Vinyl is held in a gatefold picture cover displaying 'Big Leg Emma' as the 3rd track on Side 1.

Condition: 2xVG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG+(+) (Cover):
Vinyls still retains their original lustre - a single short, light and superficial mark mark is found on one side, but vinyl has otherwise hardly any signs of handling or play.

Side 2, 3 and 4 label has a single or two light, superficial and simple spindletraces - Side 1 label is mint.

Vinyls are overall graded close to mint.

Cover has only faint signs of handling - a touch of wear, almost no wrinkling from edges.
Seams are tight and firm with only a little rubbing to the parts of spine without print - top & bottom spine displays only very light pressure.

Corners are likewise very nice with just a touch of rubbing... very marginal lower opening corner dents... all in all a series of very light imperfections - cover is graded close to near mint/excellent.
