THE LABELS
THE BLUE AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION, THE PASTEL BLUE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED, THE WHITE HALF ON SIDE ONE HAS FINGERMARK (ALTHOUGH IT ISN'T ACTUALLY A FINGERMARK), AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS THAT THERE IS ONE TINY SPIDER LINE NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ON EITHER SIDE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HERE LOOKS MAGNIFICENT ON BOTH SIDES AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE, APART FROM ONE ULTRA FINE AND NO SOUNDING HANDLING LINE ON SIDE ONE. A STUNNING DISC IN EVERY WAY
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 NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE 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
THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB. THE CRYSTAL CLEAR INSTRUMENTATION AND VOCALS ARE PURE FIRST PRESS. THERE IS CERTAINLY NO GROOVE WEAR TO THIS RECORDING WHICH WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN SOME DISTORTION TO THE SOUND. THERE IS NONE. ISLAND/CHRYSALIS RECORDINGS HAVE LONG BEEN LAMBASTED FOR THE POOR QUALITY OF VINYL USED IN THEIR EARLY LP'S WHICH HAVE OFTEN RESULTED IN UNWANTED VINYL NOISE EVEN WHERE THERE ARE NO MARKS. HERE HOWEVER THE VINYL PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH .
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FANTASTIC, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD TO PERFECTION.
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW RANDOM SECONDS OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES ON SIDE TWO AND I CANT EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS!!!
PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED LIGHTLY TEXTURED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS CLEAN AND HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS ON IT WHATSOEVER. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES NOR ARE THERE ANY CREASE LINES EITHER,AND EVERY INCH OF THE DELICATE COLOUR HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER, AND IMPORTANTLY NO FINGER MARKS OR STAINS EITHER
NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE FIVE SMALL LINES BY THE SPINE.TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE , TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE TWO SMALL ONES JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE RIGHT MAN'S CHIN
THE TOP EDGE HAS A FEW WHITE CHIPS TO THE COLOURED SURFACE, AND A SPECK OF RUBBING TO THE CORNERS, WHILST THE BOTTOM EDGE JUST HAS SOME LIGHT RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE TOP TIP IS LIGHTLY RUBBED AND THERE IS A SMALL SCUFF ON THE 'OB' OF OBSESSION
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP AND VIRTUALLY UNBLEMISHED WITH JUST A FEW TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS VISIBLE
THE REAR SURFACE ALSO HAS ALL OF THE COLOURS PRESENT AND UNRUBBED, JUST A FEW LINES ALONG THE PERIMETER EDGES
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT AND UNSPLIT. WITH SOME LIGHT GLUE AGEING TO THE SEAMS AND A SMALL CREASE TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER
THE POSTER IS ALSO IMMACULATE. HAS NEVER BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE AND EVERY FOLD LINE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE SLEEVE GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
