THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PURPLE AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB ORIGINAL UNMOLESTED CONDITION. THE PURPLE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT, AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE WHITE CENTRE SECTION IS ALSO WHITE AND UNMARKED. THERE ARE JUST 3-4 TINY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE TO SHOW THAT THIS LP HAS HAD HARDLY ANY PLAY
HAS THE GRAMOPHONE CO 1ST PRESS RIM WORDING
THE VINYL
THE GLEAMING VINYL THAT HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE. AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD STILL LOOKS MINT WITH ONE TINY NON SOUNDING MARK ON TRACK TWO, SIDE TWO
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC IT SOUNDS.
IT WAS SAID THAT THE MK II PURPLE WERE AT THE TIME THE LOUDEST BAND ON THE PLANET, AND THIS SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION CERTAINLY CAPTURES THAT, HAVING A CRYSTAL CLEAR, LOUD CUT TO IT.
I CANNOT FAULT THE PLAYTHROUGH OF THIS ALBUM. THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT ANY PLAY THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR STATIC EITHER, A STUNNING ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS
NO BACKGROUND OF ANY KIND, NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL PLAY THROUGH MINT
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE AGAINST YOUR STANDARDS
