THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
SUPERB MINT CONDITION ORANGE CBS LABELS. THE BASE COLOUR IS UNMARKED AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, I CANNOT EVEN SEE ANY SPIDER LINES, AND IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THIS HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED BEFORE TODAY
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL IS IMMACULATE. LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED 39 YEARS AGO. IT GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT.
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 NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.
THIS VINYL PLAYS INCREDIBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES.
THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
SIDE ONE PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION WITH JUST A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE AND BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS, WHILST SIDE TWO HAS A LITTLE LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND DURING SOME OF TRACK TWO AND THE LAST TRACK, AND A A COUPLE MORE DUST POPS
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT!!!
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN THOUGH AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
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. AMAZINGLY THERE IS A NO TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE,WHICH USUALLY BLIGHTS THIS SLEEVE, APART FROM A SLIGHT SHADOW ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES
THE TOP LEFT CORNER IS THE ONLY AREA THAT HAS A LITTLE FLAW, IN THAT THERE IS A SMALL LINE RUNNING ACROSS THE TIP AND THE TIP ITSELF HAS A SLIGHT DING. PROBABLY BEEN DROPPED ON THIS CORNER AT SOME POINT
THERE ARE NONE OF THE USUAL TINY LINES THAT FORM ALONG THE PERIMETER EDGES WHICH IS ALSO VERY UNUSUAL. NO LINES WHATSOEVER NEXT TO THE SPINE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE VERY FIRST ISSUES OF THIS ALBUM DO NOT HAVE THE STICKER ON THE COVER INDICATING THE TWO SINGLES, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, APART FROM ONE TINY SLIVER IN ONE CORNER ON THE BOTTOM AND A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE TOP RIGHT CORNER TIP.
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY MINT, RAZOR SHARP
THE SPINE IS ALSO PRISTINE. NO RUBBING AT THE TIPS, EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE IS NO SQUASHING AT ALL AT ANY POINT ON THE SPINE
THE REAR SURFACE IS PRISTINE AND DOESN'T HAVE ANY RECORD SHAPE OR ANY LINES AT ALL
THE ONE SHEET LYRIC INSERT IS FLAT AND UNCREASED. AND IN MINT CONDITION
THE DIE CUT PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE HAS THE CORRECT PATENT NUMBER 1,125,555 IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER, AND ' MADE IN ENGLAND' IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
