CONDITION VINYL

RECORD LABEL The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! 

VISUAL CONDITION  Most of these 60s/70s LPs are played into submission or badly marked or scratched, and almost unplayable or are in a sorry state.This one is NOT!!! The vinyl is visually STUNNING with highly polished, glass like surfaces,very similar to mint vinyl. Virtually unmarked under ordinary light!!! NO scratches, NO surface marks!!!Closer inspection under a strong light one can observe only 3 light hairlines. THAT'S ALL, FOLKS!   The visual must grade Excellent +++ if not better!!!! 

SOUND QUALITY  There is a superb prog rock sound and SUPERB audio clarity on this original album, and then maintaining a high standard of audio throughout with superb resonance and 'fat' tones, while still revealing crystal clarity and sharpness in the top end and mid-range - simply fantastic!!! The record plays SENSATIONAL with NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss, NO pops, it has only a touch of ULTRA LIGHT static crackle and only a MEGA LIGHT background sound audible but NO INTRUSIVE!!! (probably due to dust, in fact the vinyl appears in AMAZING condition!!!) Certainly nothing that detracts from the overall IMPRESSIVE sound quality of the album. It plays simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The audio quality is just AMAZING!!! The complete record plays top on all  frequencies!!! VERY VERY clear and deep sound!!!  Only the 1st pressing have this top audio quality!!! Plays 100% flat without any skips or sticks!!!  The sound quality must grade Excellent if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! Graded STRICTLY to the UK Record Collector grading standards.
