Description
RARE-Red Alert EP Third and Final/Border Guards
This is an ultra rare first EP and self release by Sunderland based band Red Alert.It was found in a job lot of other singles without a cover unfortunately and as such does have some scuffs and scratches to both sides.
There is background noise on the run ins on both sides but the record is very loud so they are genuinely not very noticeable when playing.It has been thoroughly cleaned and sounds really strong.
Welcome to my record auctions !!
Many records are from my own personal collection and currently some from a neighbour which I am selling on their behalf.
Each record has been cleaned twice each side on a Project VC-S MK II record cleaning machine using Mobile Fidelity cleaning products.After cleaning they are placed in new anti-static inner sleeves and a new protective outer cover.
The wet clean vacuuming process makes a huge difference as it reduces dust,surface marks(not scratches) and significantly reduces background noise to give a much improved soundstage.
Most of my records are original/early pressings which in my opinion sound far superior to modern pressings.
A word about hairline marks and light scratches.It is almost impossible to find an older non sealed record without some marks as many records had them from new as a result of the inners that they were placed in.
Many records also have background noise which varies according to the quality of the original pressing.I will endeavour to list any faults etc in all of my listings.
I also try to listen to most records or at least parts of tracks after cleaning to assess the sound quality and my two turntables are vintage (30 yrs old) Bang & Olufsen which both are serviced regularly and have superior B&O cartridges fitted.
I take the grading seriously and will usually undergrade as everyone's idea of grading is totally different and very subjective.
