I BOUGHT THIS RECORD AT AN OYSTER BAND CONCERT IN 1982 OR 1983. UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE MISLAID THE TICKET STUB, SO I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT DATE OF THE CONCERT. I GOT THE SLEEVE SIGNED BY 4 BAND MEMBERS OF THE TIME:
IAN KEAREY ALAN PROSSER IAN TELFER JOHN JONES
PLEASE SEE PHOTO 2 FOR A SCAN OF THE SIGNATURES.
CONDITION
VYNIL
I PLAYED THE RECORD ON 20/2/2015. I USE A 1990s SONY TURNTABLE FITTED WITH A RECENTLY REPLACED STYLUS. IT TENDS TO BE RATHER SENSITIVE TO ANY DEFECTS IN A RECORD.
THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH TRACK A1, WHICH JUMPS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AT THE START. FROM A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE RECORD THERE IS SOME NOTICEABLE/ VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE START OF THIS TRACK. PART OF THE TRACK (APPROX LAST HALF) IS PLAYABLE.
THE REST OF THE ALBUM PLAYS AS IT SHOULD WITHOUT FURTHER MAJOR PROBLEMS SUCH AS FURTHER STICKS, JUMPS, SKATING OR MAJOR CLICKS OR CLUNKS. WHEN PLAYED THROUGH HEADPHONES THERE IS A DEGREE OF STATIC.
SLEEVE AND ARTWORK
GENERALLY IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT IS UNMARKED (OTHER THAN THE BAND'S SIGNATURES). THERE IS SOME RUBBING WEAR TO THE TRAILING EDGES OF THE COVER AND TO THE BOTTOM TRAILING EDGE IN PARTICULAR. THE LAST 3 PHOTOS SHOW THESE MINOR AREAS (THE PHOTOS CAN BE MAGNIFIED).
IN SUMMARY WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY GOOD SOUND COPY IS MARRED BY A DAMAGED AND PART UNPLAYABLE TRACK A1. WHAT I HAVE DONE MYSELF IS TO START THE PLAY AT A2.
A VERY BIG UPSIDE, OF COURSE IS THAT IT IS A SIGNED COPY.
THE RECORD COULD EITHER BE KEPT TOGETHER AS A FILLER COPY AS IS. ALTERNATIVELY IT COULD BE USED AS A DONOR COPY -THE SLEEVE COULD BE USED TO REPACKAGE A MINT VYNIL COPY IN A NON SIGNED SLEEVE.
FROM A NON SMOKING/ PET FREE HOME.
POSTING TO THE UK ONLY.
THIS ITEM WILL BE MAILED TO THE WINNING BIDDER IN A 12" LP RECORD MAILER WITH STIFFENER FOR ITS PROTECTION IN TRANSIT.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
