The record is also a bit uneven (NOT a sharp edge warp)  - though this does NOT affect the play in ANY respect!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!
