Visual and Play of the LP
This wonderful LP has been not only visually rated, but also each track has been played and listened to all the way through on a quality deck with a new stylus.
The play of both sides is Excellent. I detected no sticks, no hops, no jumps, no ticks, not even any background crackle. Completely flawless in fact.
Side 1 - is visually near-perfect. Rated EX+ In normal lighting just one light scuff mark can be seen. Under the strongest light at an angle two extremely light surface scratches can be found. Sound quality was flawless EX/NM throughout.
Side 2 - is visually rated EX++ . In normal light the surface is completely flawless. In very strong light two extremely small scuff marks can be found on track1. On play the sound was EX/NM throughout, I could not even detect any background noise between tracks.
