  TO LISTEN TO THE RECORD, PLEASE PRESS PLAY ON THE PLAYER, AND WAIT FOR IT TO LOAD. IT CAN TAKE UP TO A MINUTE. THE NEW SOFTWARE IS SLOWER THAN THE OLDER ONE. BY THE TIME YOU HAVE READ THROUGH THE DESCRIPTION IT SHOULD START TO PLAY

THE LABELS

STUNNING ORANGE RCA LABELS THAT ARE  IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. I CAN'T SEE ANY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED IN THE 34 YEARS SINCE IT WAS PRESSED

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS VIRTUALLY NEVER BEEN PLAYED.IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS.THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OF ANY DESCRIPTION, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE AT ALL

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 DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY 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 WITH A CRISP CLEAN FIRST PRESS SOUND THAT CAN ONLY BE ASSOCIATED WITH THESE 1ST PRESS VINYL OFFERINGS. THE REPRODUCTION IS EXCEPTIONAL AND THIS PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER

THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR CLICKS

THE ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN ONE OR TWO SILENT PASSAGES

NO DUST POPS OR EVEN ANY STATIC TICS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH MINT 

DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS.

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE OBI STRIP IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO CREASES OF ANY DESCRIPTION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FREE FROM ANY RUBBING. 

THERE IS THE TINIEST SHADOW OF RECORD IMPRESSION

THERE ARE JUST TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A MINUSCULE DING TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT ONE

THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY COLOURED AND BOTH CORNER TIPS ARE MINT. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ALSO PERFECT 

THE SPINE IS IN SUPERB FLAT AND UNSQUASHED CONDITION. ONE PIN PRICK OF RUB AT THE  BOTTOM TIP. PRISTINE TYPEFACE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND JUST BY LOOKING AT THE FACT THAT THERE ARE NO THUMB NAIL NICKS IT IS CLEAR THE LP HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE COVER.

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION, WITH ALL OF THE COLOURS BEAUTIFULLY MAINTAINED. AGAIN NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES. 

THE JAPANESE LYRIC INSERT IS ALSO IN FLAT CONDITION WITH A TINY CREASE ON THE TOP RIGHT CORNER TIP

THIS SLEEVE WITHOUT A DOUBT GRADES NEAR MINT

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