THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE. THE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE WHITE . ORANGE TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS NO SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW IN DAYLIGHT. IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD ONLY SHOWS A THREE VERY FINE DULL STREAK LINES ON SIDE ONE (NON SOUNDING)
THE TEST PLAY
THE CLARITY OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS JUST INCREDIBLE. EVERY NOTE IS CRISP AND CLEAN, AND THE WHOLE ALBUM SOUNDS SUPERB ALL THE WAY THROUGH.
THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THIS CRYSTAL CLEAR REPRODUCTION
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY WAS A LITTLE OCCASIONAL VERY LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND BARELY AUDIBLE IN SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS OUTSTANDING DISC NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
