THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLUE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. ALL COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND . NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON ANY PART OF THE LABEL.
THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN AND THERE ARE JUST 1-2 VERY TINY VISIBLE SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO MARKS ON THE SURFACE EITHER, AND IT IS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT,AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW NON SOUNDING EMBEDDED DULL STREAK LINES (VERY FEINT) AND A FEW MINUSCULE WISPY SLEEVE REMOVAL HAIRLINES (AGAIN ALL NON SOUNDING)
THE TEST PLAY
THIS VINYL PLAYS ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES. THERE IS NO DISTORTION WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR ANY LOUD CLICKS
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
NO BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SUPERB AUDIO MINT
