THE LABELS
THE YELLOW SIRE LABELS HAVE A A COUPLE OF LIGHT FOXING MOTTLES ON THEM. THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THERE ARE JUST 1-2 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES ON EACH SIDE
THE VINYL

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
THE SUPERB 1ST PRESS STEREO REPRODUCTION IS LOUD AND MAGNIFICENT. NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING WHATSOEVER.
THE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION IS BOTH CRISP AND CLEAN, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
SOME VERY LIGHT AND BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES ONLY. THE TRACKS ARE PERFECT
I HEARD NO MORE THAN 1-2 TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
THE PLAYTHROUGH EASILY GRADES MINT MINUS
BUT PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
