THE BEST SLEEVE THAT WE'VE EVER HAD IN - ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS.
VINYL
LOVELY COPY. A BARELY PLAYED EX++, HAS BEEN CAREFULLY AND SPARINGLY PLAYED. AUDIO IS REALLY EXCELLENT, LOUD AND DYNAMIC, A WONDERFUL AND CLEAR PLAYBACK, WITH JUST SOME VERY FEINT B/G ON SIDE RUN-INS AND VERY OCCASIONALLY BETWEEN TRACKS. FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE ALBUM IT PLAYS NR MINT ON MY LINN - ONE OF THE BEST PLAYING COPIES THAT WE'VE EVER HAD, AND WILL BE DIFFICULT TO FIND A FIRST PRESS COPY WITH BETTER AUDIO. THE VINYL ITSELF IS OBVIOUSLY BARELY PLAYED, THE ONLY POINT TO NOTE IS SOME RESIDUAL IMPRINT FROM THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER STORED IT CAREFULLY IN A POLYTHENE INNER SINCE NEW, AND THIS HAS LEFT A SMALL 'DULLING' OF THE BLACK VINYL. IT IS PURELY VISUAL, AND HAS NO EFFECT AT ALL ON THE LOVELY PLAYBACK, BUT PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THERE IS A 'DULLING' OF THE RECORD COLOUR. THE CAREFUL STORAGE HAS PAID OFF THOUGH - THE ALBUM IS LOVELY, AND THE SLEEVE IS ALMOST LIKE NEW.
PLAY GRADED ON A LINN SONDEK LP12 WITH ITTOK LV II ARM AND LINN KLYDE CARTRIDGE. ALL GRADING AS PER RRPG GUIDELINES. PLEASE SEE OUR 'GRADINGS EXPLAINED' SHOP PAGE FOR MORE INFO.
SLEEVESUPERB NR MINT UNLAMINATED ROBERT STACE FIRST PRESS SLEEVE, AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS NOW. THIS SLEEVE IS NOTORIOUS FOR IT'S RING-MARKING. THIS COPY HAS JUST THE BAREST OF STORAGE AND JUST THE VERY SMALLEST OUTLINE OF THE ROUND VINYL INSIDE, THOUGH YOU HAVE TO LOOK HARD TO SEE IT. NO MAINMAN LOGO ON THE BACK.
LABELS
