THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE TEXTURED WHITE LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION.
A SMALL LIGHT BROWN MARK ON SIDE TWO, BUT THE COLOUR FULL Y STRECHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE
THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECT CONDITION
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS 1-2 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES, AND I HAVE EXAMINED IT USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF NEAR INVISIBLE WISPY HAIRLINES
BEAUTIFUL LOOKING RECORD
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS ALBUM HAS THE BEST STEREO SPLIT I HAVE HEARD FOR A LONG TIME
ASTOUNDING CRYSTAL CLEAR GUITAR WORK AND EVERY NOTE HEARD TO PERFECTION
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, CLEAN AUDIO AND ONLY THE ODD RANDOM SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A FEW RANDOM NEAR SILENT PASSAGES
NOTHING TO MAR THE OUTSTANDING AUDIO PERFORMANCE WHATSOEVER
THERE IS ONE TINY POP IN ONE LINKING GROOVE ON SIDE TWO AND THE FINAL TRACK HAS A FEW RANDOM SPECKS OF LOW LEVEL STATIC
SO A BARELY PLAYED LP THAT HAS AN AUDIO GRADE OF NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE FROM ROBERT STACE
THE LAMINATE IS VERY GLOSSY
NO RING WEAR JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE WHEN ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A DOT OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT ONE
THERE ARE SEVEN PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. THREE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, THREE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , ANDTWO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS ALSO A SLIVER OF LAMINATE LIFT ALONG THE SPINE
THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY LAMINATED WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS UNLAMINATED AND HAS A COUPLE OF SPECKS OF RUBBING
THE SPINE IS WAFER THIN
THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH JUST A MINUSCULE AMOUNT OF FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
