THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE SPACESHIP LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED.THE DISC LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISCS, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN SOME EMBEDDED DULL FLECKING WHICH HAS NO IMPACT ON THE AUDIO WHATSOEVER
A STUNNING RECORD
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS VINYL SOUNDS
THE VINYL PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
NO VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE, AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS
THIS AUDIO IS EASY TO GRADE MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH PASTE ON SURFACES
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS FOUR SHARP AND SQUARE CORNERS AND AN UNDAMAGED SURFACE.
YES THERE IS THE USUAL RUB THAT YOU GET WITH AMERICAN PRESSINGS BUT COMPARED TO SEVERELY RING WORN COPIES THIS ONE ONLY SHOWS LIGHT GREYING
THERE ARE ZEO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH JUST IMMACULATE. NO LOSS OF COLOUR OTHER THAN A SMALL DOT OF RUB TO THE TOP RIGHT REAR CORNER TIP, WHERE THERE IS ALSO A VERY SMALL SPLIT
THE SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. NOT EVEN A FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION. NO RUBBING OR LOSS OF COLOUR AT ANY POINT ON THIS SPINE. ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IDENTICAL TO THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO NEAR PRISTINE INNER SURFACES, JUST A LITTLE EDGE RUB
THE 'NEW IMPROVED DIMENSIONAL STEREO' INNER SLEEVE IS IN MINT CONDITION
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE EX
