THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PASTEL BLUE AND SILVER PAGE ONE LABELS HAVE BEEN PLACED ON THE WRONG RECORD. BOTH MONO AND STEREO USED THE SAME BLUE LABLES BUT THE CATALOGUE NUMBERS WERE DIFFERENT/ POLS 003 FOR STEREO AND POL 003 FOR MONO. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES THE LABELS HAVE POLS 003 ON THEM, BUT THE MATRIX NUMBER AND SLEEVE CATALOGUE NUMVERS ARE BOTH FOR THE CORRECT MONO ISSUE. REALISING THERI MISTAGE A LARGE MONO LABEL WAS STUCK ON PLACE ON EACH SIDE OF THE RECORD. NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE ON THIS ALBUM SO A  REAL RARITY

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL HAS RETAINED ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT STILL LOOKS FLAWLESS. INCREDIBLE CONDITION FOR THIS 1967 VINYL, WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE AND SOME SURFACE HANDLING LINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY 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 REPRODUCTION IS PURE MONO!!! FIRST PRESS WITH EVERY NOTE BEING CRISP AND CLEAR. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION TO ANY PART OF THIS SOUND WHICH IS QUITE INCREDIBLE WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE TYPE OF RECORD PLAYER THAT WAS BEING USED IN THE 60'S.

THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS

NO HEAVY VINYL NOISE WHICH IS AGAIN A LITTLE SURPRISING ON THIS ULTRA HEAVY VINYL

THERE IS SOME VERY OCCASIONAL LIGHT AUDIBLE STATIC IN A FEW OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES, BUT IF YOU PLAY THE RECORDINGS YOU WILL HEAR FOR YOUR SELF THAT THERE IS ONLY THE OCCASIONAL LITTLE LESSENING OF THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE

THERE ARE A FEW LITTLE RANDOM TICS

THE DISTORTION FREE CRYSTAL CLEAR SOUND STANDS OUT ABOVE ANYTHING

FOR ME THE AUDIO PERFORMANCE IS VERY CLOSE TO NEAR MINT, BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

FRONT LAMINATED , REAR UNLAMINATED FLIPBACK GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SINGLE SLEEVE.

THE FRONT SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR, AND THE LAMINATE SHOWS NO DAMAGE TO IT OTJHER THAN SOME EDGE STRESS LINES AND A STRECTH LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THERE ARE EIGHT SMALL LAMINATE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE, FOUR ALONG THE TOP EDGE, SEVEN ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE,AND A COUPLE OF THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE

NO RING WEAR, OR RECORD SHAPE. NO LAMINATE LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99% STILL FULLY LAMINATED AND THE COLOUR FULLY RUNS FROM TIP TO TIP WITH ONLY THE ACTUAL TIP ENDS SHOWING A SPECK OF RUB

THE SPINE IS STILL TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE LAMINATE FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM WITH A DOT OF RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS LIGHTLY BURRED

THE REAR SURFACE IS USUALLY VERY VERY GRUBBY HAVING A POROUS WHITE SURFACE. THIS COPY HAS ONCE AGAIN STOOD UP VERY WELL. THE WHITE SURFACE VERY WHITE WITH ONLY VERY LIGHT EVIDENCE OF AGEING OR HANDLING. TWO SMALL BROWN STAINS OR MARKS INH THE LOWVER HALF. THE FLIPBACKS ARE PERFECT

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT AND BARELY WRINKLED, BUT HAS LIGHTLY BROWNED WITH AGE AT THE EDGES

HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
