THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLUE AND WHITE COLOURED LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS ONE SPIDER LINE BY IT
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF TINY WISPY HAIRLLINES, AND A COUPLE OF SMALL DULL STREAKS
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
ISLAND/CHRYSALIS VINYL USUALLY HAS A LITTLE VINYL NOISE DUE TO THE PRESSING AND THIS ONE HAS JUST THE BAREST SPECK WHICH CAN ONLY BE HEARD OCCASIONALLY IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES. NO STATIC AT ALL THOUGH
I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN A FEW RANDOM LITTLE DUST POSP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM NEAR MINT
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THE DEEP COLOURS ARE ALL UNRUBBED, JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF GREYING UNDER THE TOP EDGE
THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL PRESSURE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE, FLOUR ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IMMACULATE WITH ALL OF THE BLACK SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITH JUST THE BOTTOM RIGHT TIP END HAVING A SPECK OF WHITE SHOWING
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE BLACK BASE COLOUR HAS A FEW TINY PIN PRICKS OF WHITE VISIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS GOOD AS THE FRONT
THE DIE CUT POLY LINED WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO MARKS OR STAINS, JUTS A TRACE OF GLUE AGEING ALONG THE TOP EDGE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
