I HAVE ACQUIRED A COLLECTION OF STUNNING VINYLS THAT BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO HANDLED BOTH VINYL AND SLEEVE METICULOUSLY. INCREDIBLE ALBUMS THAT I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING WEEKS. THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO COLLECT VINTAGE VINYL IN THE SORT OF CONDITION THAT YOU COULD ONLY DREAM ABOUT..LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID, AS I HAVE RECORDED EVERY SINGLE SECOND

MY LONG STANDING SERIOUS COLLECTOR CUSTOMERS WILL APPRECIATE THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PRISTINE MUSEUM GRADE  ALBUM. NEW CUSTOMERS AS WELL, IF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY INTO COLLECTING THEN THIS MUST NOT BE PASSED UP

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED EMI LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE IS 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 WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ONLY.

THE VINYL

INCREDIBLE GLOSSY CONDITION VINYL, THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE,AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS 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. 

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

NO STATIC AT ANY POINT AND I HEARD NO MORE THAN 2-3 TINY LITTLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

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

IT IS THAT GOOD

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN.

USUALLY THIS SLEEVE IS FOUND WITH THE COLOURS RUBBED, AND HEAVY RINGWEAR, AND IN ADDITION MAJOR CREASES.

THIS ONE HOWEVER IS IN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING CONDITION!!!

THE DELICATE GREY COLOURS HAVE ALL BEEN RETAINED AND THERE ARE NO  HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS ANYWHERE.

THERE ARE JUST THREE  LITTLE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER

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

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES WHICH AGAIN USUALLY SUFFER TERRIBLY FROM SHELFWEAR, ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. NOT ONE JOT OF WEAR AT ALL, APART FROM THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP WHICH IS EVER SO LIGHTLY RUBBED. EVERY OTHER INCH TOP AND BOTTOM IS MINT!!!

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE LIGHT RED COLOUR IS THERE AND EVEN AS FAR DOWN AS THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS WHICH ARE VIRTUALLY PRISTINE AS WELL. JUST A TINY SPECK OF RUB ON EACH TIP END.THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED

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.

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS THE FRONT. THERE ARE THREE SMALL LINES NEAR THE SPINE, AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE

THE ORIGINAL RED INNER SLEEVE IS IN MINT CONDITION. TOTALLY UNSPLIT AND FLAT. UNCREASED AND UNWRINKLED.

VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE  NEAR MINT

AN ABSOLUTE VAULT COPY OF THIS SUPERB QUEEN ALBUM

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