Matrix numbers
SIDE A = XLP110638 - 1A matrix.
SIDE B = XLP110639 - 1D matrix
Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine and then put in a fresh new poly-lined inner sleeve (the original inner sleeve had been lost by the time this record came to me unfortunately)
CONDITION:
VINYL = EX- (No deep scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, lightish spindle trails, etc. Under a bright grading lamp I can make out some very light hairline marks and a few other faint paper scuffs just visible on the vinyl's surface - although none of these correspond directly to any audible defects. It generally plays pretty well, but there is some very faint occasional surface noise audible during the run-in and between tracks. The record plays strong and vibrant without any distortion or other signs of audio degradation, I did hear the odd faint click or crackle in the background from time to time during a couple of quieter intros, but I weas using headphones to hear this and generally once the music kicks in that's all you can hear.
Overall, although it is not quite perfect and I realise this will affect the value, it is by no means ruined by these very minor imperfections and would still make a good honest copy for someone to play and enjoy - perfect copies of this LP exchange hands for a lot of money these days and although this is not one of those museum pieces, it is still a very serviceable copy that would be great for somebody out there to play and enjoy as it was originally intented.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)
SLEEVE = V.G.- (No big tears, creases or defacing... and still pretty flat. But I had to mark it down dirty areas, discolouration and wear to the edges which has culminated into seam splitting in some areas - see photos for further clarification)
NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the jokers now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.
