I HAVE JUST ACQUIRED A SMALL COLLECTION OF A DOZEN OR SO ROCK N ROLL LP's INCL JOHNNY BURNETTE , JERRY LEE LEWIS , FATS DOMINO , LITTLE RICHARD , THE CHAMPS , THE CHANTAYS AND EDDIE COCHRAN , I WILL BE LISTING ALL OVER THE NEXT WEEK OR SO AND I MUST SAY THIS REALLY IS A VERY NICE COLLECTION .
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS RECORD HAS BEEN VACUUM CLEANED ON BOTH SIDES USING MY PROJECT PRO CLEANING MACHINE THANK YOU .
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL RECORDS , CD's , CASSETTES AND DVD's ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED FROM START TO FINISH INCLUDING ALL SIDES FOR ALL DOUBLE AND TRIPLE ALBUMS AND BOX SETS THANK YOU .
ALL RECORDS ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED ON MY TRUSTY AIWA TURNTABLE AND GOOD QUALITY JVC AMP . THIS DOES ONLY HAVE A STD BASS AND TREBLE CONTROL WHICH I HAVE SET ON A HIGH " TINNY " SETTING . I LIKE TO SET IT LIKE THIS AS IT PICKS UP EVEN THE VERY SLIGHTEST BIT OF NOISE SO I KNOW I CAN DESCRIBE EVERY LP CORRECTLY ETC . I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT PLAYED ON BETTER OR TOP QUALITY SYSTEMS WITH GREATER AND MORE TECHNICAL SOUND CONTROL ETC , THESE RECORDS WILL SOUND A LOT BETTER THAN I HAVE DESCRIBED . I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I OFTEN GIVE RECORDS ANOTHER QUICK PLAY ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF TRACKS ON MY PERSONAL TOP QUALITY PIONEER SYSTEM AND I DO FIND THAT MOST OF ANY NOISES LIKE CRACKLE ETC ARE MUCH MUCH QUIETER , SOME EVEN HARDLY SOUND AT ALL . I TEST EVERY RECORD AND FIND THAT MY AIWA WILL COVER MANY OTHER SIMILAR SET UPS THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE , I DID WANT TO JUST POINT THIS OUT , THANK YOU .
Please note that i do tend to use " Very Good Condition " for most of my records , although none are heavily scratched etc and most will just have some general light surface marks only . The only exception to this is if the record does have scratches and lots of marks etc but is very rare and collectable and will be described in great detail . I never use " Mint " or " Near Mint " unless the record is unopened from it's original shrink wrap and is clearly unplayed . Even with these i am wary because if the record has been stored for years in maybe a damp garage or loft etc and has not been opened , then we can only presume it should be mint because we obviously can't actually see the record . Everyone obviously has their own opinions as to what is very good and excellent , but in my case , i tend to think that most , if not all records do have marks to some degree ( lots even from new ! ) purely because they are vinyl and mark easy and have been used over a considerable amount of time in most cases . This is why i use Very Good most of the times . This is also why i do go into great detail with my descriptions , as the term " Very Good " can be a bit vague . I do use " Excellent Condition " sometimes , but in my case , i would class this as not played very much at all , excellent shine and just a handful of the very lightest and small surface hairline marks only , most only being visible under a light , so you know that when i use excellent , i really do mean excellent . Lots of my records as you can see by my feedback are better than described , more better than very good and closer to near ( if not ) excellent and i do pride myself on this fact , this is why i do use mainly " Very Good " but with very detailed descriptions also of which i will say i can go a little OTT with noise and general condition and can often make a record sound bad when it really isn't , i do just try my best to say how it is , but as i say please do check my feedback and you will see you can bid with confidence , thank you .

The Champs Everybody's Rockin' With UK LP Pro Cleaned See Details . On UK London Plum / Silver Print Labels HA-H 2184 .
COVER: Laminated ( front and rear flipbacks only ) cover in a very very strong very good / near excellent overall condition and still overall very nice and clean , this cover really is a very nice example , certainly one of the best i have seen a very long time .
FRONT: Generally very nice and clean and still retains a nice glossy sheen overall with just a bit of usual but light only dulling in places . A very few usual but very light and small surface laminate crease lines in places round the outer edges and three or four very light soft dents near the opening edge , there is one light laminate crease crack line on the bottom edge which i have shown in the photos , this appears to have been caused by the usual but light ringwear mark , there is also one tiny feelable but very light extremely thin knick / line mark near the centre part of the bottom edge , but this really is very small indeed ( approx between 7 and 8mm only ) . A very very few very light and very small general surface marks in places , mainly just a few very light single line / hairlines in places . There are the usual but light only ringwear marks with just a light impression of the outer edge of the record and a very light bit of usual rubbing . A really very nice front cover .
TOP / BOTTOM / LEFT HAND SIDE MAIN EDGES: ( Not Including Corners And Right Next To Corners Please See Corner Description ) . TOP EDGE: No obvious signs of rub wear on the laminated part , just a couple of tiny laminate cracks / knicks . BOTTOM EDGE: The same . LEFT HAND SIDE EDGE: Normally obviously the spine edge , but these flimsy thin card covers of the time had all of the text printed on the rear and there was no actual spine . This edge is pretty much the same but with just three or four tiny laminate cracks and a couple of small very slightly rough patches in places , though only really noticed when you run your finger over the actual edge itself .
MAIN SPINE EDGE: N/A .
OPENING EDGES: Notoriously wear prone edges but these really are still in great shape with really just a few very light and very small bits of denting / very light wear in places mainly only visible on the inside , there is no heavy fraying and no tears , there are three ( on each side ) small what look like patches of old sticker residue marks on the inside of the cover near to the opening edges which i have shown in the photos .  
CORNERS: Some usual but mostly very very light and very small bits of fray / dent wear on the corners , virtually all being confined to the tip ends , slightly more on the bottom corners but still only generally very light and very small and on the tip ends , there is one tiny knick / split on the bottom right corner which has gone onto the main edge but this is really tiny ( approx 4mm ) . There are , being a bit picky a few tiny , very light creases / dents very tight onto the corners , but these really are very small indeed , anything really just consistent with age and use etc , but all being very light only .  
REAR: Still in really great shape overall . A very few light and small general age related surface / handling marks in places , but these are very light only and it still retains it's general whiteness nicely . A few usual laminate surface crease crack lines in places round the outer edges and on the flipbacks , mainly on the bottom flipback , there is a removed sticker mark near the bottom right corner which i have shown in the photos , this does have bits of a faint light blue outline in places round the edges , this is just a mark and there is no surface paper missing etc . There are just two or three very light very soft dents in places near the opening edge , but these really are very light only . There are the usual but very light ringwear marks with just a very light impression of the outer edge of the record and the slightest bit of rubbing in places only . As i say , this cover really is in great shape , a notoriously wear prone thin card cover , i think this one is a very nice example .
INNER SLEEVE: Printed on one side ( pale lilac coloured print ) poly lined paper inner sleeve in very good overall condition . A very few light and very small general surface / handling marks in places and there is some age related foxing / light browning , mainly round the edges , though some of this is just the usual glue residue marks . The usual but generally quite light ringwear marks and a few creases in places , but there are the usual more prominent harder creases caused by the outer edge of the record on and near mainly the bottom corners . Some light normal useage wear on the top opening and side edges and corners , with a little more wear ( not excessive ) on the top corners . I can't confirm if this is the original inner sleeve , but it is consistent with the time period and label . 
LABELS: London plum / silver print paper labels generally in excellent condition . Very nice and clean with just a very very few very light and small usual spindle marks . Both labels are writing free .
RECORD: The overall visual grade under normal average household light conditions is a very very strong near excellent condition on the playing surface , though i think most may say airing closer to the actual excellent side overall with just a very very few extremely light and very faint hairline surface marks on both sides and just a very very very few ( three or four ) other very very slightly more visible but still very very light hairline surface marks in places , most of the fine hairlines i will say are also only more visible when held at certain angles to or under a light , there are no nasty deep gouges / nasty deep scratches etc whatsoever . I will say that there is what appears to be a line which runs round the blank run off just before the actual very end of the run off on both sides , they do appear to be done as part of the manufacturing process and to me appear to be machine done but obviously i can't confirm this in saying this , they can be felt , it passes through the line on both sides with just a noise as it passes through it , i must admit i am at a loss to know what this line is . As i don't know what they are and because of the noise , to be sure , all i did in the end on my second testing was to just take the arm off when the record had finished and before it reached the line and again to be sure i would also recommend this action if you are unsure , actually i doubt most people would have even mentioned them , but as you know , i do like to be thorough with all my descriptions , i have shown this in the last photo so you can see exactly what i mean . Obviously this had no affect on the music playback at all as it is just on the run offs .
AUDIO A SIDE: It plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music playback with amazingly no really obvious noise worthy of mention , there was no nasty crackle and no nasty ticks , in fact all i heard was just a very very very few odd isolated extremely faint pops in places on the music on some quieter parts only and a very few on the silent track changeover lines , but any on the music really were barely heard and very few and far between . Actually a very great deal of this one does play close to virtually noise free on the music ! . There are obviously some usual and often louder noises heard on the silent run ins/offs and silent track changeover lines , though i must say that even most of the silent changeover lines these were very quiet overall . This side on the music really does play and sound fantastic and the audio tones are still awesome . There were no jumps etc when tested on my deck and it still retains a very nice shine . I really can't stress enough how good this side plays and sounds on the music .
AUDIO B SIDE: It plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music playback and plays as above description with just a couple of extremely light pops on the quieter intro only . This side again on the music really does play and sound fantastic on the music and the audio tones are still awesome . There were no jumps etc when tested on my deck and it still retains a nice shine . Again i really can't stress enough how good this one plays and sounds ! .
All in all a very nice overall example of this now very collectable item together with superb overall sound , do turn this one up and enjoy ! . Thank you very much for your time and interest and happy bidding . Please do read the following ref record gradings explained thank you . 
Near Excellent: The playing surface of the record has obviously been played but shows only light signs of this , a few of the lightest non feelable surface marks being mostly very fine hairlines will be present , but it displays no deterioration in sound quality . Some brief very light noise and very occasional usual very light pop maybe present in places and would be acceptable on some quieter parts , but none of this will be loud or constant . Please see the descriptions above for the cover condition .
Please note that whilst I haven’t increased my postage charges for quite a while now , this now other recent price increase , has seen me unfortunately have to put a slight increase on my postage charges . This is also topped with the rise in cost for quality card mailers , jiffy bags , stiffeners , other packaging materials etc , Ebays 10% extra fee for seller postage costs plus their other fees and Paypal now charging 20p per item sold on Ebay plus their other fees . Please also note that I now send ALL non GF LP’s / 12" singles with a minimum of 3 stiffeners and all 7" singles with a minimum of 2 stiffeners ( more if i think they are needed ) , i never and don't agree with making money from postage and with all the added fees / extra stiffeners etc , most of my records including LP's sell for between £2 and £6 so all of this whilst not sounding a lot , does soon mount up and i actually do lose money on posting records , but I do obviously want to still remain competitive and still offer my usual top quality service , sorry again for this , thank you .
