THE RECORDS 

THE LABELS

THE SWAN SONG LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND REMAIN UNRUBBED. THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE SPINDLE HOLE TOTALLY UNWORN. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE WHATSOEVER

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE DISC HAS RETAINED ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT THE LP IS FLAWLESS, NOT A MARK ON IT, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE AT ALL. A TRULY PERFECT VINYL

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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, THIS IS BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED 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 LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

A STUNNING SOUND THAT IS PERFECT WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION AND CERTAINLY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR CLICKS

THERE ARE MANY MANY QUIET PASSAGES IN THIS ALBUM AND NONE OF THEM ARE NOISY NOT EVEN STATIC DURING THE LINKING GROOVES

NOT EVEN ANY LITTLE DUST POPS. EVEN THE RUN OUT GROOVE IS SILENT

OUTSTANDING COPY, AND I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS MINT!!!!

PLEASE TAKE A LONG LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

THE NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD IS IN VIRTUALLY THE SAME CONDITION NOW AS IT WAS THE DAY IT LEFT THE PRINTERS. THE FRONT SURFACE IS PURE WHITE, FLAT AND CLEAN WITH NO HANDLING TO IT AT ALL, THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THE CLINICAL CONDITION

THERE IS JUST THE TINIEST SLIVER OF NATURAL AGEING TO THE VERY OUTER RIM, BUT NOTHING SERIOUS AT ALL

THE 4 CORNERS ARE SHARP TIPPED AND PERFECTLY SQUARE. THERE ARE NO CREASES, CREASE LINES, DENTS.

THERE IS ONE NEAR INVISIBLE PRESSURE LINE AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE UNMARKED AND IN PRISTINE CONDITION. ALL FOUR SURFACES HAVE RETAINED THE COLOUR AND ALL FOUR CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED

THE SPINE IS ALSO MINT. TOTALLY FLAT AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE REAR SURFACE IS JUST AS PERFECT AS THE FRONT, AND THE INSIDE OF THE GATEFOLD IS ALMOST AS PERFECT HAVING ONLY ALIGHT BAND OF AGEING TO THE TOP EDGE

THE INNER SEEVE IS ALSO IN UNBELIEVEABLE CONDITION. AGAIN PURE WHITE, BUT OF COURSE HOUSING THE RECORD IS PRONE TO SPLITS AND RECORD SHAPE. THIS HAS NOTHING AT ALL WRONG WITH IT. THE DELICATE POROUS SURFACE IS FREE FROM ANY BLEMISH . I AM TAKING NO CHANCES WITH IT, AND HAVE REMOVED THE VINYL AND PLACED THE INNER SLEEVE CAREFULLY BACK INSIDE THE SLEEVE, WITH THE VINYL IN A NEW POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE NOW PLACED OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE.

I HAVE NO HESITATION AT ALL IN GRADING THIS INCREDIBLE SLEEVE, MINT MINUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
