THE TEST PLAY
THIS RECORD PLAYS LIKE IT'S BRAND NEW FROM 1970
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THEMONO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THERE ARE SO MANY QUIET OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM AND IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO STATIC EVEN IN THE SILENT PASSAGES
NO DUST POPS DURING THE PLAY
THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED AND HAS A REMARKABLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO MINT
BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT CLOUT & BAKER SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A VERY GLOSSY LAMINATE
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE STILL SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE ARE TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
UNUSUALLY THIS SLEEVE HAS NO LAMINATE LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE. IT'S THE BEST EXAMPLE I HAVE SEEN
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE LAMINATE RUNNING ACCROSS THE SURFACE . THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR . BOTH EDGES HAVE UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS FULLY LAMINATED WITH PERFECT TYPEFACE .PRISTINE LAMINATE AND UNBLEMISHED ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS STILL MAINLY WHITE WITH A LIGHT TRACE OF HANDLING ON THE EDGES AND A LITTLE RING RUB AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM ONLY
THE ORIGINAL RED POLY LINED DIE CUT INNER IS IN SUPER CONDITION.
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
