Labels: EXCELLENT +
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Both surfaces are pristine and totally unmarked in daylight, showing no scuffs, marks or scratches whatsoever. Close & careul inspection directly beaneath halogen light reveals just a few barely visible wispy inner-sleeve removal paper hairlines but amazingly no other marks or wear at all.
Play: EXCELLENT +
This superb copy has received just a few extremely careful plays on top quality equipment. ALL tracks play without any traces of background noise, groovewear distortion or any clicks, pops or other signs of audible wear. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
Cover:
EXCELLENT
A clean, firm & flat example with a clean & glossy front laminate which bears just a single light crease towards the upper right corner and three faint 'thumbnails', but no other signs of wear. Apart form minor shelfwear to the lower right corner, all are square and unbumped and both opening edges are unworn & undamaged. The rear panel is clean with just a faint scratch below the upper flipback but no writing, stains or missing paper. All the flipbacks are intact, both seams unsplit and the spine is fully & clearly worded.
Inner-sleeve:
EXCELLENT
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & halogen light based upon UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I play every record I sell at volume on high-end audio equipment and list all visual and audible faults.
- Unless stated, all records lie 100% flat & play without distortion, jumps or sticks. All sleeves/covers have no writing, splits or tears.
- The listing photos have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are packed strongly & securely in custom-made record maling boxes with the disc removed from the cover. All text & images © Bright Field Music 2008
