THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE YELLOW STONES LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE HOLE ON EACH SIDE, VISIBLE ONLY UNDER STRONG ILLUMINATION, TO INDICATE THAT THIS SUPERB STONES ALBUM HAS ONLY EVER BEEN ON A TURNTABLE ONCE SINCE IT'S RELEASE IN 1978
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND LOOKS SUPERB. THIS IS A STAGGERING VINYL AND IT IS VERY CLEAR AS SOON AS YOU HOLD IT THAT IT JUST HASN'T BEEN HANDLED OR PLAYED. IT IS 35 YEARS OLD AND AMAZING TO THINK THAT A POPULAR ALBUM SUCH AS THIS JUST HAS SAT AROUND UNPLAYED FOR ALL THESE YEARS.
EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES. A SUPERB GLEAMING MINT EXAMPLE
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 LP BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY THROUGH. NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
THIS DISC PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH. PERHAPS A SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF SPOTS, AND I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE I HEARD ANY SMALL DUST POP EITHER. IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT A PERFECT DISC, AND A FINAL UPGRADE FOR SURE
SO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO SOUNDBITES AND I AM CERTAIN YOU WILL AGREE, BUT YOU BE THE JUDGE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL 1ST ISSUE WITHDRAWN SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE UNLAMINATED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT.
THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE , AND INCREDIBLY JUST ONE MINUSCULE ONE CLOSE TO THE SPINE.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE PRISTINE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ABSOLUTE TIP END OF THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER WHICH IS MILDLY RUBBED.
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND AGAIN FREE FROM ANY COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. NO SQUASHING WHATSOEVER
TH REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN THE SAME LUSH CONDITION AS THE FRONT.
JUST AN IMMACULATE SLEEVE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE SMALL THUMB NAIL NICK TO SHOW WHERE THE LP WAS REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE
THE CARD INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION, HAS THE THUMB NOTCH ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND THERE ARE NO CREASES OR SPLITS AT ALL
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS GREAT COVER MINT MINUS
A REAL VAULT COPY OF THIS LP SET
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
GARRY
