THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WHICH HAS JUST 3-4
MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES SHOWING JUST WHY THIS SUPERB VINYL HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED IN THE LAST 56 YEARS!!!!
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT CAME OUT OF THE PRESS. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT,AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.
EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM SOME OF THE TINIEST WISPIEST FEATHER LIKE HAIRLINES, PROBABLY FROM EITHER SLEEVE REMOVAL OR CLEANING
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS MONO ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION.
THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE. THE EARLY MONO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE. MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL IS FLAWLESS IN THAT RESPECT
THE NEXT THING TO STATE IS THAT THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. JUST THE OCCASIONAL SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC WHICH IS ONLY HEARD IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND NEVER WHILST THE MUSIC IS PLAYING
NO CLICKS OR POPS AT ANY POINT DURING THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO PERFORMANCE
THE SLEEVE
GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A GLOSSY LAMINATE THAT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. AS MENTIONED THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASE LINES, FOLDS OR BENDS, AND EVEN THE CORNERS ARE TOTALLY SQUARE AND SHARP, WITH ONLY THE TOP RIGHT TIP SHOWING A TINY SPECK OF RUB
AMAZINGLY THERE IS JUST ONE TINY LAMINATE PRESSURE LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND FOUR ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ONE SMALL THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY WEAR AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT. THE LAMINATE RUNS UNBLEMISHED FROM CORNER TO CORNER
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN MINT!!!!!!! CONDITION. THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED EVEN THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE 100% UNRUBBED.
THE SPINE IS ALSO ABSOLUTELY AND 100% TOTALLY FLAT, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.NO SQUASHING WHATSOEVER
THE OPENING EDGE IS AEXTREMELY SHARP WITH JUST A TINY PACH OF VERY LIGHT BURRING IN THE MIDDLE
THE REAR SURFACE ALSO IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, AND INCREDIBLY NO RING WEAR, AND NOT EVEN ANY SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I ANGLE IT INTO A STRONG LIGHT
THE WHITE SURFACE HAS ONLY THE BAREST SHADOW OF AGEING AND HANDLING ON THE EDGES, AND THERE IS ONE LIGHT BROWN FOXING MOTTLE
THE FLIPBACKS ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION
IT IS SO OBVIOUS THAT THIS ALBUM HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN MINT MINUS CONDITION.BARELY A WRINKLE AND TOTALLY WHITE AND UNSPLIT, SHOWING JUST WHY THIS ALBUM IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
SO PLEASE PRESS THOSE PLAY BUTTONS ABOVE AND LISTEN TO A TRULY MARVELLOUS EXAMPLE OF A HARD DAYS NIGHT
