THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED AND YELLOW LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE YELLOW AREA IS VERY CLEAN AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE RED LOGO IS CLEAN AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND CLEAR. 

THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE.

THE VINYL

BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM HAVING RETAINED  ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO MARKS ON THE SURFACE, AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS STILL NOTHING TO SEE, NO WISPY HAIRLINES EVEN.

THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE LITTLE FACTORY DIMPLE ON EACH SIDE OF THE DISC. SLIGHTLY RAISED BUT TOTALLY NON SOUNDING. THE STYLUS TRACKS PERFECTLY ACROSS BOTH OF THEM. TAKE A LISTEN TO THE RECORDING I HAVE MADE AND YOU WILL HEAR FOR YOURSELF (TRACK 3 ON BOTH SIDES)

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. I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO ANY LP THEY ARE CONSIDERING PLACING A BID ON, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

FIRSTLY THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION ON THIS VINYL IS JUST SUPERB, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.A POWERHOUSE PRODUCTION THAT IS AS CLEAR AS A BELL

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND ANYWHERE ON THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

THE SILENT PASSAGES ARE SILENT!! AND THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE TO BE HEARD AT ANY POINT.

NO LOUD CLICKS AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, AND NOT EVEN ANY AUDIBLE STATIC IN THE LINKING GROOVES AND THE RUN IN TO EACH SIDE

I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS MINT 

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE IN SUPERB CONDITION

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS NO DEEP CREASE LINES, FOLDS OR BENDS, AND CERTAINLY NO RING WEAR ,AND THE SHRINKWRAP IS STILL TIGHT, JUST PULLED BACK A LITTLE FROM THE OPENING EDGE

ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED AND THERE IS NO RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR.

THERE ARE THREE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE . NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE VIRTUALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WITH THE COLOURS FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND ONLY THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP SHOWS A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE VERY END.

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE COLOUR IS PRISTINE AND RUNS FULLY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM ,AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNRUBBED THE MAGENTA TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH ONE MINUSCULE THUMB NAIL NICK AND ONE TINY SPECK OF ROUGHNESS, AND SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. 

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT. AGAIN NO DEEP CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND PRISTINE UNRUBBED COLOURS

THE CARD LYRIC SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN AN UNSPLIT, UNCREASED CONDITION. TOTALLY PRISTINE WITH UNDAMAGED CORNERS AND THUMB NOTCH

THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES MINT

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
