THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE TAN LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE IS NO MARKS, STAINS OR ANYTHING ELSE TO MAR THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT THEY ARE IN.
THE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE 1-2 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
INCREDIBLE GLOSSY CONDITION VINYL.
LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS, I CAN SEE SOME EMBEDDED LIGHT DULL STREAK LINES AND SOME FINE WISPY HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH CLEANLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
IT'S ALL HERE, RUN IN'S, RUN OUTS, LINKING GROOVES, AND OF COURSE THE MAGNIFICENCE OF THIS FIRST PRESS REPRODUCTIVELY.
NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND MEANING THAT THERE IS NO GROOVE WEAR
YOU WILL HEAR SOME RANDOM LOW LEVEL VINYL NOISE AND A LITTLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
I ALSO HEARD A COUPLE OF TINY LITTLE TICS DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+
PLEASE TAKE A GOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE FROM MACNEILL PRESS.
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN..
THE EMBOSSED LOGO IS PERFECT
THE DELICATE BLACK COLOURS HAVE ALL BEEN RETAINED AND THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS ANYWHERE. JUST A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF GREYING RECORD SHAPE, AND SOME GREYING TO THE EDGES
THERE IS ONE PRESSURE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE . THREE ON THE TOP EDGE, TWO ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES WHICH AGAIN USUALLY SUFFER TERRIBLY FROM SHELFWEAR, ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. NOT ONE JOT OF WEAR AT ALL TO THE TOP EDGE WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS
THE SPINE IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF JUST HOW CLEANTHIS SLEEVE IS. MOST WILL BE WORN THROUGH WITH THE TYPEFACE WORN AWAY. THIS ONE HAS ALL OF THE COLOURS INTACT, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT. THE ENDS ARE PRISTINE
THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS AT THE TOP
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN SUPER CONDITION. EASILY AS NICE AS THE FRONT
THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE REST OF THIS SET
VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
