THE RECORD 

 

THE LABELS

THE COLOURED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN, AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. .

THE YELLOW TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE ARE 1-2 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IS IS NEAR FLAWLESS , JUST ONE LIGHT DULL NON SOUNDING SCUFF LINE ON SIDE A UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO I SEE A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES AND ONE MICROSCOPIC MARK NEAR THE END OF THE FINAL TRACK ON SIDE A  

THE TEST PLAY

 

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.

THE SILENT BITS ARE   SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

I HEARD A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OPF SPOTS
ONE DUST POP EARLY ON SIDE ONE AND TWO TICS IN THE LAST FEW BARS OF THE FINAL TRACK ON SIDE ONE
SIDE TWO HAS A LITTLE OCCASIONAL LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+  

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE 

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND HAS A RESIDUE MARK WHERE THE ORIGINAL HYPE STICKER EAS IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THE REAR SURFACE IS FULLY COLOURED WITH A COUPLE OF EDGE PRESSURE LINES ONLY AND A LITTLE GREYING UNDER THE TOP EDGE

THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT INNER WITH THE FLIPBACKS. ONE PIN HOLE SPLIT ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND JUST A TINY SCUFF ON ONE SIDE. THERE IS AGEING AND A LITTLE STAIN ON THE WHITE AREA
THE LARGE POSTER IS IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION.  SHARP FOLD LINES ONE MINUSCULE TEAR AT THE EDGE OF ONE FOLD LINE, SOME FOXING ON THE BACK
