Vinyl has been well looked after and still retains a nice sheen plays through with no skips, sticks or jumps and excellent audio / production overall with some occasional background in some of the quieter bits a classic album release from Joni. There are a few light hairlines under the lamp and a few very faint surface but visually in lovely condition overall. There is a very light warp mainly to A which doesn’t catch on the deck nor detract from any playback but can be however downgraded accordingly. Labels are clean and complete with no stickers or writing and no spindle wear to the centres. Plain white poly lined inner sleeve. Outer sleeve has no splits, stickers or writing and a readable thin spine and is in lovely original shape with some light storage rub and some very light wear. Nice shape overall.

Vinyl visually is stunning and still retains a nice sheen. There is a very light warp which doesn’t catch on the deck nor detract from any playback the album plays through perfectly with no skips, sticks or jumps and excellent audio / production throughout on this later mid 80’s classic JONI release. Literally minimal wear a couple of minimal hairlines under the lamp visually in lovely shape. Labels are clean and complete with no stickers or writing and no spindle wear to the centres. Outer gatefold sleeve has no splits or writing and the vintage Our Price sticker still on. Sleeve is lovely otherwise with a readable medium spine and lyrics on the inner gatefold. Very light marks a very solid example for its age.

All records are properly play tested through headphones unless otherwise stated or still sealed.. All vinyl is also inspected under a bright halogen lamp and carefully graded.. I use the standard U.K. record collector grading system appreciating that opinions differ.. I never add more than one + or - to my gradings and never grade a record as M unless it’s bought new by myself and still sealed. Even then an M graded record is extremely rare in anyone’s grading system.

…

Vinyl is graded first then outer / inner sleeves, posters inserts etc. Vinyl is always separated from sleeve in transit (Unless stated) Record will come in a polythene protective sleeve with a new anti static inner sleeve when the inner is printed or a new one is required (Unless stated) Posted with two record stiffeners in sturdy vinyl mailer (Unless stated) Vinyl is always posted signed for, insured with proof of postage also retained. Any international postage is also always signed for, tracked and with healthy insurance.
