ARTISTE, RECORD TITLE  AND LABEL: 
 Bollywood OST “ Jhuk Gaya Aasman Angel 3AEX 5156 (pressed in India) Music Direction: Shankar Jaikishan

 
An original 1968  Indian pressed Angel LP. The jacket generally looks excellent. One side of the vinyl has some visible hairlines which did not affect playing or cause skips and generally  plays VG ++ to  excellent( see detailed results of my visual and play grading below) .I have housed it in new custom made acid free paper sleeves .The last time, I came across a lot of Bollywood records in reasonable good condition here in Singapore was about 6 years ago. The feedback on that that sales could be viewed at page 6 of my feedback pages.


I have been inactive on EBay for the last few years as I opened a shop here in Singapore and I will be placing the harder to find albums on eBay in addition to my own local sales. As I tend to clean and play grade all opened copies, I will only be placing a rather limited quantity each time. Details of such cleaning and play grading are indicated below.

 GRADING RESULTS: Visual grading: The jacket generally looks Excellent. Other than some surface scuffs at the right hand side on the reverse, there are no visible flaws like seam splits or tears.
Side 1 has about 4 visible lines which could not be felt . There was some roaring sound at the beginning of each side at the dead wax and 3 or 4 light clicks/pops on track 3 of that side. Side 2 only had some light roaring sound at the beginning at the dead wax and one light click towards the end of track 1.The vinyl maintains its lustre. The  playing could generally be graded as Excellent. The sonics were crisp and sharp. Tracking was at 1.7g on Linn LP12.
How I Clean and  Grade my Records Cleaning is usually done on a Loricraft PRC4D cleaning machine and using the US made Walker Audio stage cleaning solution.
Playback Equipment:  Playback is through a Linn LP12 turntable/ Radikal/Urika/Keel Naim Aro tonearm/Lyra Helikon SL cartridge> Amplification is through a Naim 52 preamp/2x135s into a factory rebuilt Wilson Watt Puppy. For Monos I use a second Aro/Miyajima Mono though I change them occasionally as the arm tubes can be easily transferred from one deck to another.
 Shipping costs    I use brand new custom made  plastic sleeves for the sleeve and anti static plastic sleeves for the vinyl. Shipping is always by Airmail and by registered post as it allows one to track items in case of delays.  Shipping costs in pounds are: 
UK/USA/Europe  16 GBP Each additional LP/12” : 6.5 GBP Rest Of The World: ask for rates


 Postage is via Airmail, "signed for" delivery. I prefer signed for delivery as it allows me to "chase" on my side if buyers do not get their items within 2 weeks though so far this has only happened with Italy.  I will  inform buyers of the registration details through Email on posting.Forms of payment that I accept include:·   
    PAYPAL (preferred choice)
