THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PASTEL GREEN AND BLUE LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS ONLY ONE TINY SPIDER LINE NEXT TO IT
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES. THE VINYL HAS THAT FEEL ABOUT IT WHEN REMOVING IT FROM THE INNER SLEEVE THAT YOU ONLY GET WITH AN UNPLAYED DISC
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 ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, JUST A LITTLE LIGHT STATIC AT THE START OF SIDE ONE AND VERY OCCASIONALLY IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN TWO TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM NEAR MINT
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS AND CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THERE IS NO LOSS OF COLOUR AND THUS NO RUBBING TO THE FRONT SURFACE.THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER TIP HAS A TINY DING TO IT.
THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE BLACK COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING ON EACH TIP END. THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A FRACTION MORE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER.
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, WITH A SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM TIP. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE WITH JUST A TINY SPECK OF RUB TO ONE LETTER, AND A COUPLE OF SPECKS OF WHITE VISIBLE ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, WITH ONE THUMB NAIL NICK IN THE MIDDLE
THE REAR SURFACE HAS JUST A FEW SPECKLES OF GREYING
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, SOME LIGHT GLUE AGEING ONLY
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
