DAVE BURLAND - A DALE'S MANS LITANY
RARE FOLK ALBUM
PLAYS EX+
EX SLEEVE
THE RECORD LABELS
THE RED LABELS ARE MAGNIFICENT. DEEP RED ND THE COLOUR HAS NO MARKS OR FADING AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPIDLE HOLE
THERE IS JUST 2-3 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
HEAVY 1ST PRESS IS IN SUPERB CONDITION AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE ARE JUST A FEW SMALL WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF LIGHT HANDLING LINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERBLY AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO PRESS THE AUDIO BUTTONS AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE TO HEAR IT
FIRSTLY THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS CRISP AND CLEAR, AND CLEAN
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER
NO HEAVY CRACKLE
WHAT YOU WILL HEAR DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH ARE A NUMBER OF TINY LITTLE DUST POPS OR TICS AT RANDOM. TRACK 2 SIDE 2 HAS A FEW VERY VERY LIGHT ROTATIONAL BEHIND THE MUSIC TICS.
A VERY CLEAR AND CLEAN AUDIO DESPITE THE LITTLE RANDOM TICS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC EX+ / EX FOR THE AUDIO
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORK FOR IT, PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT BY YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
THIS IS A NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE FROM MACNEILL PRESS
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS SOME HANDLING TO THE WHITE BORDER AND A TINY PAPER PULL AT THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE PICTURE
THERE ARE SIX PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE. FOUR ON THE TOP EDGE. THREE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE CORNER TIPS ARE RUBBED A LITTLE
THE TOP EDGE HAS A LITTLE AGEING AND A DOT OF RUB ON THE CORNER TIPS
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL
THE SPINE SHOWS AGEING AND HANDLING AND SOME FLATTEING IN THE MIDDLE. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH A LITTLE FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE IS SIMILAR TO THE FRONT
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE VG+
