THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED AND TAN EMI LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE ARE NO MARKS, STAINS OR ANYTHING ELSE TO MAR THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT THEY ARE IN. THE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE JUST 2-3 SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ONLY. CLE.

THE VINYL

A VINYL THAT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAY LIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS

THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES THAT HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE PERFORMANCE WHATSOEVER, AND A COUPLE OF SUPERFICIAL HANDLING LINES

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 FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. .

EVERY NOTE ALL THE WAY THROUGH THIS ALBUM CAN BE HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED. THIS IS AN IMMACULATE FIRST PRESS AUDIO PERFORMANCE

THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT, MEANING THAT THE ONE PLAY THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, NOR ARE THERE ANY LOUD CLICKS

THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE AND ONLY THE OCCASIONAL SPECK OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND, AND A FEW VERY TINY LITTLE DUST POPS HERE AND THERE

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

IT IS THAT GOOD

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN.

USUALLY THIS SLEEVE IS FOUND WITH  HEAVY RINGWEAR, AND IN ADDITION MAJOR CREASES

THE FRONT SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR AND LOOKS STUNNING.

THERE ARE 5 TINY LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, AND A COUPLE OF TINY PATCHES OF LAMINATE LIFT ON THE TOP HALF BY THE SPINE.

THREE LINES ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND SIX ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE SPINE HOWEVER

THERE IS NO RINGWEAR AT ALL EITHER, AND NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES WHICH AGAIN USUALLY SUFFER TERRIBLY FROM SHELFWEAR, ARE IN  MINT CONDITION. NOT ONE JOT OF WEAR AT ALL, AND THE LAMINATE FULLY RUNS FROM TIP TO TIP. THE TOP EDGE ALSO HAS THE SPINE WORDING REPEATED ON IT, AS A FIRST PRESS SHOULD HAVE

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE AND EVEN AS FAR DOWN AS THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS WHICH ARE PRISTINE AS WELL. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THE LAMINATE IS UNBLEMISHED

THE OPENING EDGE IS WITHOUT QUESTION AS SHARP AS YOU COULD EVER WISH TO HAVE A COPY. IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS CLEAN AS THE FRONT. WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY LAMINATE LINES ON EACH EDGE

THE ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER SLEEVE DOES HAVE A LITTLEWEAR TO THE SURFACE AND IS LIGHTLYHANDLED. IT WOULD APPEAR THE THE BOTTOM SEAM HAS AT SOMETIME SPLIT A LITTLE BUT HAS BEEN INVISIBLY REPAIRED

VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE  NEAR MINT MINUS!!!!!

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