THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE SUPERB GREEN AND PASTEL BLUE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE RICH AND VIBRANT BASE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE,AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE ABSOLUITELY ZERO SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS 1977 1ST PRESS HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS IN A CLEAN AND SHINY CONDITION AND LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE TO BE SEEN. AN ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT MARK, WISP FREE RECORD

PLAYING THE RECORD

WE DO BELIEVE THAT A RARE LP SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE HEARD BY BIDDERS AND SO THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE  INVESTED IN. THE BUTTONS AT THE TOIP OF THE PAGE WILL ALLOW YOU TO HEAR THE ACTUAL RECORD YOUR ARE THINKING OF BIDDING ON

THIS IS A SERVICE WE ARE DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER OUR 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.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.

THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND NO LOUD CLICKS

NO VINYL NOISE AND NO MORE THAN A SPLIT SECOND OR TWO OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC HEARD ONLY IN  A  LINKING GROOVE OR TWO 

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO TICS OR POPS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS

BUT PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOUR SELF

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED TEXTURED CLOUT AND BAKER SLEEVE.

THIS SLEEVE IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS SUPERB  CONDITION. 

THE TEXTURED SURFACE ALWAYS WEARS AND RUBS AND THE SLEEVE HISTORICALLY HAS RING WEAR. 

THIS ONE HOWEVER HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM THE FIRST DAY IT WAS PURCHASED AND HAS ESCAPED MOST OF THE USUAL ISSUES

THE FRONT SURFACE WHICH OFTEN HAS SERIOUS COLOUR LOSS, IS  RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAS NONE WHATSOEVER.  NO CREASE LINES OR BENDS , JUST A LITTE BIT OF RECORD IMPRESSION IN THE TOP RIGHT QUADRANT

THERE ARE FOUR SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE .ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE. 

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO RINGWEAR TO THE COVER, AND INCREDIBLY NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER, EVEN WHEN THE SLEEVE IS ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES  SHOW VERY MINIMAL SHELF RUB. A LITTLE MORE ON THE BOTTOM THAN THE TOP

THE SPINE IS FLAT APART FROM ONE TINY FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION NEAR THE TOP. THERE IS A LITTLE RUB TOP THE TOP TIP END

THE OPENING EDGE IS  VERY SHARP 

THE REAR SURFACE, MATCHES THE SUPERB QUALITY OF THE FRONT AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE RING WEAR THAT USUALLY BLIGHTS THIS SURFACE ON THE SLEEVE. NOT EVEN A SHADE OF RECORD SHAPE EITHER, JUST SEVEN SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, AND THATS ALL.

THE PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS IN UNSPLIT CONDITION. NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND NO WRINKLES. ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE UNMARKED AND THERE ARE NO STAINS

I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

THESE WILL BE LISTED AROUND 6PM DAILY 

Your Purchase will be send inside a very protective square cornered professional package

The record will be removed from the sleeve and placed inside a new poly inner sleeve and separated from the cover
