THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED , BLUE AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE YELLOW AREA IS VERY CLEAN AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE RED LOGO IS CLEAN AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND CLEAR. 

THERE ARE JUST 3-4 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE.

THE VINYL

BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM HAVING RETAINED  ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE LP WAS HOUSED IN A SLIGHTLY TEXTURED INNER SLEEVE THERE ARE NUMEROUS MINUSCULE FINE WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES VISIBLE WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION

IN ADDITION SOME NON SOUNDING DULL FLECKS IN THE VINYL,AND ONE DULL PATCH ON SIDE TWO TRACK 4

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 BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO ANY LP THEY ARE CONSIDERING PLACING A BID ON, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

FIRSTLY THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION ON THIS VINYL IS JUST SUPERB, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.A POWERHOUSE PRODUCTION THAT IS AS CLEAR AS A BELL

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND ANYWHERE ON THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

THE SILENT PASSAGES ARE SILENT!! AND THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE TO BE HEARD AT ANY POINT.

NO LOUD CLICKS AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, AND NOT EVEN ANY MORE THAN A FEW RANDOM SPECKS OF AUDIBLE STATIC IN THE LINKING GROOVES 

I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH, JUST A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC TICS

I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS VISUALLY EX+

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED EMBOSSED SINGLE SLEEVE IN SUPERB CONDITION

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS NO DEEP CREASE LINES, FOLDS OR BENDS, AND CERTAINLY NO RING WEAR.

THE WHITE SLEEVE IS ONLY MARRED A LITTLE BY A SHADOW OF HANDLING AND AGEING AT THE EDGES

ALL OF THE DELICATE CENTRE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED AND THERE IS NO RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR.

THERE ARE FOUR SMALL PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE . FOUR ALONG THE TOP EDGE, THREE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE VIRTUALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WITH THE COLOURS FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND ONLY THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP SHOWS A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE VERY END.

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE COLOUR IS PRISTINE AND RUNS FULLY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM ,THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF WEAR. THE BLUE AND RED TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. 

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT. AGAIN NO DEEP CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND PRISTINE UN-RUBBED COLOURS. JUST A COUPLE OF TINY EDGE LINES AND A LITTLE HANDLING / AGEING TO THE EDGES
