THE RECORD

 

THE LABELS

THE  GREEN LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. 

THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. 

THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE JUST 1-2 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE


THE VINYL

THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. 

ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISC, AND IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FLAWLESS

UNDER A BANK OF SPOTLIGHTS THE RECORD STILL LOOKS SUPERB, JUST A COUPLE OF SMALL WISPY HAIRLINES


THE TEST PLAY

THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH THE ENTIRE ALBUM

THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER

NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND, MEANING NO GROOVE WEAR
