THE RECORD
THE LABELS
PRISTINE CONDITION BEIGE AND RED LABELS. THE BASE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE RED LOGO AND BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE ZERO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS SUPERB VINYL HAS BEEN ON A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THE DISC HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TO BE FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY ONE OR TWO VERY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES VISIBLE
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 AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MT CUSTOMERS
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 LP SOUNDS.
THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST PURE FIRST PRESS WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD EXACTLY AS IT WAS INTENDED
THE LINKING GROOVES ARE PERFECTLY SILENT THOUGH BOTH SIDES AND THERE ARE ONLY A COUPLE OF VERY MINOR SPECKS OF NOISE THAT STOP ME FROM GRADING THIS AUDIO A FULL MINT
IT'S A CRACKING ORIGINAL 1975 FIRST PRESS, AND IN A VERY COLLECTIBLE CONDITION
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
