THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE DARK ORANGE FIRST PRESS LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE RED FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ON EITHER SIDE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL IN PERFECTLY LEGIBLE CONDITION.THERE ARE NUMEROUS TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE INDICATING THE VINYL HAS HAD REASONABLE PLAY IN THE PAS 43 YEARS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY SUPERFICIAL SURFACE SCUFFS VISIBLE IN DAYLIGHT AND WISPY HAIRLINES AND FINE HANDLING LINES WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION. HOWEVER THE SOUND REPRODUCTION AS YOU WILL HERE IS NEAR PERFECT
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 AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE FIRST THING TO NOTE IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN ONCE AND EVEN THEN IT WAS PLAYED WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
I HEARD JUST A FEW SECONDS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES, AND I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT THERE ARE MORE THAN PERHAPS ONE OR TWO TINY LITTLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
THIS IS AN EXTRA SPECIAL COPY OF THIS 1969 ALBUM AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING IT NEAR MINT!!!!!!!!!!!
IT REALLY IS THAT GOOD
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO IT IN FULL AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED MACNEIL GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND STILL SHINES LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE LAMINATE SHOWS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND THERE ARE JUST FOUR SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE OF WHICH CROSSES THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER AND FORMS THE ONLY LINE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. THE TOP EDGE HAS NONE AND THERE IS ONE SMALL THUMB LINE CLOSE TO THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ON THIS SLEEVE ARE JUST PLAIN CARD DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE SLEEVE, AND THEY ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION WITH JUST A SPECK OF BURRING HERE AND THERE
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS INTACT WITH ONLY THE VERY TOP TIP HAVING A TINY PIN PRICK OF WEAR. ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, WITH JUST TWO TINY LAMINATE STRETCH LINES IN THE MIDDLE. NO LINES NEAR THE SPINE OR ANY OF THE OTHER EDGES
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS WITH NO COLOUR LOSS OR CREASING ANYWHERE
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT, BUT IS LIGHTLY AGED, AND HAS A FEW MINOR WRINKLES
A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE AND I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE IT NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
