THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGE CBS LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE JET BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE JUST 2-3 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLES INDICATING THAT THIS SET HAS JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A FEW TIMES
THE VINYL
THE TWO DISCS ARE IN IMMACULATE CONDITION, AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOK ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. NO MARKS OR LINES ANYWHERE, AND ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION AM I ABLE TO SPOT A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES.
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 NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THIS VINYL PRODUCES A SUPERB LOUD 'LIVE' PERFORMANCE WITH A STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT FULLY ENHANCES THE QUALITY OF THE RECORDING
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER MEANING THAT THERE IS NO GROOVE WEAR TO THE ALBUM, OR IN OTHER WORDS THE COUPLE OF PLAYS THAT THE LP SET HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETD ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER,ON EITHER DISCS AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER.
NO VINYL NOISE AND ONLY THE BAREST TRACE OF STATIC AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF EACH SIDE DURING THE RUN IN DEAD WAX.
ALL OF THE SILENT PASSAGES ARE TOTALLY SILENT, AND THIS SET PERFORMS TO A MINT STANDARD WITH EASE
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MACNEILL GATEFOLD SLEEVE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND MARK FREE. THE DELICATE PASTEL COLOURS ARE ALL FULLY UNRUBBED AND REMAIN RICH AND VIBRANT. NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE.
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND NO BENDS OR FOLDS JUST ONE VERY TINY DING TO THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP. THERE IS ALSO A SLIVER OF GLUE RESIDUE ALONG THE TOP EDGE NEAR THE RIGHT CORNER.
INCREDIBLY THERE ARE NO LINES NEAR THE SPINE AND NONE ON ANY OF THE OTHER PERIMTER EDGES FOR THAT MATTER.
THE TOP EDGE HAS A COUPLE OF TINY WHITE SPECKS SHOWING THROUGH, WHILST THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS SOME VERY LIGHT RUBBING IN A COUPLE OF PATCHES
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE FULLY PRESERVED WITH JUST THE BAREST BIT OF RUBBING TO THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. EVERY LETTER OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE LITTLE THUMB NAIL NICK ON EACH ONE, SHOWING JUST WHY THE LP'S HAVE HARDLY BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE IN THE LAST 40 YEARS
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME STUNNING CONDITION AS THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PAIR OF PRISTINE INNER PANELS
THE TWO ADVERTISING INNERS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. ONE FEATURES BOB DYLAN, AND THE OTHER A WHOLE HOST OF OTHER BCS ARTISTS. BOTH ARE IN FLAT CLEAN AND UNSPLIT CONDITION
