THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE WHITE/PINK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE.
IN DAYLIGHT THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES,AND IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, APART FROM A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES
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, AS I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS. THIS IS BECAUSE I BELIEVE BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THEY ARE CONSIDERING LAYING A BID ON, AND IT'S A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT, GIVING A CRYSTAL CLEAR AND LOUD SOUND TO THE CUT
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, SHOWING THAT THE LP WAS NEVER PLAYED WITH A STYLUS WORN OR TOO HEAVY EITHER
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS EITHER
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND VIRTUALLY ZERO!! STATIC EITHER EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES, JUST A SPECK IN THE RUN IN GROOVES
I HEARD NO MORE THAN 2-3 TINY LITTLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH, PLUS A FEW ROTATIONAL TINY TICS AND THESE OCCUR IN THE LINKING GROOVE TO THE FINAL TRACK ON SIDE TWO
AN OUTSTANDING 1ST PRESS, IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT !!!
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A LISTEN AND BE THE JUDGE YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN. ALL OF THE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED AND THEY ARE SUPERBLY RICH AND VIBRANT. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES ANYWHERE.
THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP HAS A TINY DING AND THERE IS A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT ONE
THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL LINE CLOSE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THERE IS NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99% MINT WITH ONLY THE BOTTOM RIGHT TIP SHOWING A SPECK OF RUB, WHILST THE TOP EDGE HAS A FEW WHITE FLECKS ALONG THE SURFACE
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED,WITH THE DEEP BROWN SURFACE UNRUBBED AND IMPORTANTLY THE WHITETYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. A TINY BIT OF RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE REAR SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE COLOUR AND LIKE THE FRONT IS FLAT AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE TWO LIGHT CREASE LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE TWO NEXT TO THE SPINE, AND ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE TINY CRIMP AND SHOWS JUST WHY THIS LP HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE UNPLAYED FOR ALL THESE YEARS
THE ORIGINAL HEAVY PAPER PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN EXCEPTIONAL UNSPLIT AND UNCREASED CONDITION
I AM VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!!
