THE LABELS

THE BLUE LABLES HAVE HAD AT SOME POINT A STICKER ON EACH SIDE. POSSIBLY FACTORY SAMPLE STICKERS?. ANYWAHY THEY HAVE BEEN REMOVED WHICH HAS LEFT THE RESIDUE MARK AND ON SIDE A , THERE IS A SMALL PAPER SNAG

THERE IS ONLY ONE SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING THAT THE LP HAS LITTLE PLAY


THE RECORD

SUPERB HEAVYWEIGHT GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS

UNDER SPOTLIGHTS   THERE ARE SOME VERY FINE WISPY HAIRLINESON SIDE B  AND TWO OR THREE FINE SURFACE HANDLING LINES, AND THAT SMALL SCRATCH ON TRACK THREE


PLAYING THE RECORD


THIS ALBUM PLAYS CLEANLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES

MOST OF THE TRACKS ARE UNACCOMPANIED BY MUSIC SO THIS WOULD ENHANCE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE VINYL

WHAT YOU WILL NOT HEAR IS

ANY  BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO SKIPS OR STICKS OR JUMPS

90% OF THE RECORDING HAS ABSOLUTELU SILENT BACKGROUND

THERE IS A LITTLE EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT THE START OF SIDE TWO WHICH YOU CAN HEAR IN THE LINKING GROOVES OF THE FIRST TWO TRACKS

TRACK THREE SIDE TWO HAS A SMALL SCRATCH WHICH CAUSES ABOUT TEN VERY LOW LEVEL TICS AS IT PLAYS, BUT I STRESS THESE ARE VERY LOW LEVEL

OTHER THAN THIS JUST THE OCCASIONAL STATIC TIC

BUT OVERALL THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY WELL

  I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO EX+

BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

  

THE SLEEVE 

NON LAMINATED ROBERT STACE SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MAJOR CREASES

THERE IS SOMNE STICKER RESIDUE UNUSUALLY IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER

NO RING WEAR JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM

THERE ARE SEVEN SMALL PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE. ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ONE SMALL THUMB LINE BY THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGE IHAS A SMALL SCUFF IN THE MIDDLE BUT IS OTHERWISE FULLY COLOURED WITH UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION

THE SPINE IS IN PERFECT CONDITION. UNBLEMISHED COLOUR AND TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. PRISTNE TYPEFACE

THE OPENING EDGE STILL RAZOR SHARP 

THE REAR SURFACE IS SUPERBLY CLEAN AND JUST AHS A FEW TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE

 I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX++

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
