THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
SUPERB MINT CONDITION ORANGE CBS LABES. THE BASE COLOUR IS UNMARKED AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO UNMARKED AND UNRUBBED AND IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE MINISCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING THAT THE LP HAS ONLY HAD THE ONE CAREFUL PLAY FROM NEW
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL IS IMMACULATE. LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED 36 YEARS AGO. IT GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT. ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION CAN I SEE A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES. BUT THIS IS A SUPERB DISC IN EVERY WAY
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 FOUR THREE MINUTE EXCERPTS FROM THIS ALBUM, I HAVE RECORDED THE FIRST TRACK FROM EACH SIDE WHICH INCLUDES THE DEAD WAX RUN IN, I HAVE ALSO RECORDED THE LINKING GROOVE TO THE START OF ONE OTHER RANDOM TRACK FORM EACH SIDE OF THE ALBUM. THE REPORDUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS
THE LP'S PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. THERE IS THE VERY OCCASIONAL BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POP HERE AND THERE BUT THIS ALBUM SOUNDS AS GOOD NOW AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SHOREWOOD SLEEVE. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS OR SCRATCHES. THERE IS A VERY LIGHT TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE, AND I DO MEAN VERY LIGHT. THERE ARE NONE OF THE USUAL TINY LINES THAT FORM ALONG THE PERIMETER EDGES WHICH IS VERY UNUSUAL. THE GOLDEN STICKER IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER IS FIRMLY FIXED AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT PATCHES OF HANDLING.
THE TOP EDGE IS TOTALLY UNWORN, WHILST THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A MINISCULE TRACE OF SHELF WEAR. THE SPINE IS UNSQUASHED AND ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE TINY THUMB NAIL NICK WHERE THE RECORD WAS PULLED FROM THE SLEEVE ONCE.
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVEN BETTER THAN THE FRONT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RECORD SHAPE WHATSOEVER
THE ONE SHEET LYRIC INSERT IS FLAT AND UNCREASED. THERE IS THE LIGHTEST TRACES OF AGING TO THE PERIMETER EDGES IN THE FORM OF LIGHT TANNING
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
