    SECRET AFFAIR -BUSINESS AS USUAL

    SUPERB MINT AUDIO

    RECORD LOOKS UNPLAYED

    MINT MINUS SLEEVE IN SHRINKWRAP



     

    THE RECORD

     

    THE LABELS

    THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES VISIBLE

    THE VINYL

    THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS.

    EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS IT STILL LOOKS UNPLAYED

    THE TEST PLAY

    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 NEAR PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH

    NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS

    NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NEAR SILENT LINKING GROOVES

    NO CRACKLE, CLICKS OR POPS

    NO  TICS ANYWHERE, SILENT LINKING GROOVES

    I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS AUDIO MINT 

    PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

     

    THE SLEEVE

    NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE

    THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE COLOURED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT.

    THE SHRINKWRAP IS NATURALLY SPLIT AT THE OPENING EDGE BUT NOWHERE ELSE. IT IS TIGHT TO THE SLEEVE BUT NOT TIGHT ENOUGH TO BEND THE SLEEVE

    NO RINGWEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

    THE ORIGINAL HYPE STICKER SITS IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER UNDER THE SHRINK, AND THE VIRGIN STICKER SITS ON TOP OF THE SHRINK

    THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

    THE TOP EDGE HAS PERFECT COLOUR AND A LITTLE RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER
    THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL

    THE SPINE IS FLAT AND HAS PERFECT TEXT. 

    THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP AND HAS NO FEATHERING

    THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE FRONT

    I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS

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