THE VINYL   EX+  

As you can see, this vinyl is the 1973 SWEDISH CUPOL  HEAVYWEIGHT PRESSING  -

NOT A RE-ISSUE ON POLAR (WHICH CAME OUT AFTER SHE HIT THE BIG TIME!)

Stored from new this LP has seen WELL BELOW AVERAGE plays only, and remains in SUPERB condition everywhere.

THE VINYL REALLY IS IN STUNNING CONDITION -

This HEAVYWEIGHT pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings.

We can SEE A FEW spider lines around the centre hole!!   and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There are a few light whisp lines on the vinyl, and thats it-  nothing else!  No scratches or marks.  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, and therefore there are a few little dust specs on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard only some light lead in static in the opening dead grooves ...possibly the odd dust pop which will not sound next time through we doubt.

Yes...the whole record plays quite superb.

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.
