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 JUST 1-2 TINY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LPHAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS IN A CLEAN AND SHINY CONDITION AND LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION HOWEVER THERE APPEARS TO BE A DULL CLOUDY (NON SOUNDING) EFFECT OVER PARTS OF THE VINYL, PLUS SOME WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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, SOMETHING I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL OF THE VINYL THAT I LIST. I AM CERTAIN BIDDERS OUT THERE WILL APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD THEY ARE THINKING OF BIDDING ON RATHER THAN LEAVE IT TO POT LUCK.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY 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,SHOWING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THAT THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED HAS BEEN COMPLETED WITH A STYLUS THAT WAS BOTH UNWORN, AND TRACKING AT THE CORRECT WEIGHT.

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

NO VINYL NOISE JUST SOME VERY LIGHT STATIC HEARD ONLY IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES

OTHER THAN THIS THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO HEAVY CLICKS

THERE ARE NO DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT !!!

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 MINT CONDITION. THE TEXTURED SURFACE ALWAYS WEARS AND RUBS AND THE SLEEVE HISTORICALLY HAS RING WEAR. THIS ONE HOWEVER HAS ESCAPED MOST OF THAT

THE FRONT SURFACE WHICH OFTEN HAS SERIOUS COLOUR LOSS, IS  RICH AND VIBRANT AND ONLY HAS SOME VERY LIGHT GREYING AT THE EDGES.  NO CREASE LINES OR BENDS APART FROM A THUMB PRESSURE POINT IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER.

THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE .NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE 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 CORNER TIP ENDS HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT RUB

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE MOSTLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, WITH THE COLOURS FULLY RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP, AND ONLY THE VERY TIP ENDS SHOW A SPECK OF RUB

THE SPINE IS FLAT APART FROM A COUPLE OF TINY FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS. THERE IS NO LOSS OF THE COLOURS AT ALL, APART FROM A SPECK AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS

THE OPENING EDGE DOES HAVE SOME BURRING

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 THE THUMB PRESSURE POINT IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER

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!!!!

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
