THE RECORD

THE LABELS

SUPERB DEEP BLUE LABELS WITH RED LOGO AND SILVER TYPEFACE. THE BASE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER LOGO AND TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.  THERE IS ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS SUPERB VINYL HAS BEEN ON A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE DISC HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TO BE FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A HANDFUL OF TINY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL NON SOUNDING 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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MT 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 SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER, AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO DUST POPS JUST A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE AND BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC TICS IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES ON SIDE ONE

THIS IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS 1ST PRESS VINYL

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST PURE FIRST PRESS WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD EXACTLY AS IT WAS INTENDED

IT'S A CRACKING ORIGINAL 1973 FIRST PRESS, AND IN A VERY VERY COLLECTIBLE CONDITION

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS

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

FOR ME THIS IS EASILY A FINAL UPGRADE COPY
