THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE JUST 3-4 SMALL SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE. THE ORIGINAL OWNER HAS NEATLY PENNED HIS INITIALS ON SIDE FOUR
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM . IN DAY LIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON THIS SPARKLING VINYL,AND IT LOOKS SUPERB AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES, AND A COUPLE OF ULTRA FINE HANDLING LINES
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 WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, IN THE FIRM BELIEF 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
INCREDIBLE!!! THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO DESCRIBE THE REPRODUCTION. SO MANY SILENT PASSAGES THAT PERFORM TO A VERY HIGH GRADE
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE , JUST SOME VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND WELL BEHIND THE MUSIC
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EXCELLENT ++
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED MACNEILL GATEFOLD SLEEVE.
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE ORIGINAL OWNER PLACED ONE OF THOSE NUMBERING SYSTEM STICKERS IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER
THE COLOURS ARE PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND NO FOLDS OR BENDS THE CORNERS HAVE SOME RUBBING TO THEM AND A LITTLE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE
THERE ARE FOUR SMALL LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE . ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ONLY HAVE THE MILDEST TRACE OF SHELF WEAR, WITH A LITTLE MORE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE IN THE RIGHT CORNER THAN THE TOP EDGE
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THERE IS RUBBING TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS AND A FEW WHITE CHIPS TO THE TOP LEADING EDGE. THE BLUE TYPEFACE IS STILL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGES ARE STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IDENTICAL TO THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A NEAR PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS. A LITTLE LIGHT STAIN EITHER SIDE OF THE SPINE AT THE BOTTOM
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVES ARE ALSO IN NEAR MINT CONDITION HAVING REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE FOR 43 YEARS. THEY ARE STILL FAIRLY WHITE, UNSPLIT AND UNCREASED, WITH JUST SOME VERY LIGHT AGEING TO THE EDGES
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE EXCELLENT ++
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
