STRICTLY GRADED

Sleeves and vinyls are visually graded after a careful check in bright sunshine on my roof terrace. In the gray days I watch the records under a strong halogen lamp with the help of a magnifying glass. All LPs in auction have been fully heard on a turntable Rega Planar 3 with a moving magnet cartridge Grado Statement 1. I listen EPs and singles 45  rpm. on a turntable Thorens TD 166 BC with a MM cartridge Goldring 1006. Considering that the usual classifications such as Mint, EX, Vg, etc…, etc. ... are not significant to explain the real condition of the records in addition to a total subjectivity of opinion, I always introduce before these classifications a short description concerning any defects I have verified with the exception of Mint minus, the highest grade I declare. I use MINT/MINT exclusively for the still from factory sealed copies.

Notes : music and orchestra Malcolm Arnold. An excellent score characterized by extended and airy melodies with a touch of exoticism well underlining the various aspects of the film story such as adventure, contempt, love, challenge.... Here and there the intervention of pressing and even obsessive percussions. A special mention : " King Dance of Happiness " from the lively and percussive rhythm shortly interrupted by romantic and magic sound atmospheres.
