SUPERBLY GLOSSY AS NEW DISC WHICH HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND LOOK FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY LINES TO BE SEEN
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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW CRISP AND CLEAN THE DISC SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD HOW IT WAS INTENDED.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND, WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY STAGGERING. A LOUD AND VERY POWERFUL STEREO REPRODUCTION, WITH EVERY NOTE AS CLEAR AS A BELL.
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES. NO DUST POPS WHATSOEVER, APART FROM THREE IN THE DEAD WAX INTRO BEFORE THE MUSIC STARTS ON SIDE TWO
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS LP MINT !!!!!! PLEASE LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
IN MY OPINION A FINAL UPGRADE COPY
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IN COMPLETELY SUPERB CONDITION.
THIS HAS CLEARLY BEEN HOUSED IN A PLASTIC OUTER FROM NEW. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN. THERE HAS BEEN NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER, AND THUS THERE IS NO COLOUR LOSS.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY UNWORN , ANOTHER SIGN THAT THIS HAS BEEN PROPERLY PROTECTED FROM NEW, ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE AND EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE TOTALLY UNRUBBED
THE SPINE IS IMMACULATE. FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT.NO COLOUR LOSS AND EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE UNRUBBED
THE OPENING EDGE ONCE AGAIN IS ' AS NEW' RAZOR SHARP, AND IT'S CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM THIS SLEEVE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES EVER!!
