THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PINK AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE JUST 3-4 OF THE TINIEST SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE.

IN DAYLIGHT THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES,AND IT LOOKS  FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, APART FROM A COUPLE OF DULL SPOTS IN THE VINYL AND A FEW OF THE SMALLEST WISPY HAIRLINES, AND SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL WISPS

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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS. THIS IS BECAUSE I BELIEVE BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THEY ARE CONSIDERING LAYING A BID ON, AND IT'S A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT, GIVING A CRYSTAL CLEAR AND LOUD SOUND TO THE CUT

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, SHOWING THAT THE LP WAS NEVER PLAYED WITH A STYLUS WORN OR TOO HEAVY EITHER

THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS EITHER

THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY THE ODD LITTLE SPECK OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND NOTICEABLE A LITTLE IN TRACK ONE SIDE ONE, AND IN A FEW LINKING GROOVES AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES 

I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE MINUSCULE DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH, AND A FEW RANDOM LITTLE STATIC TICS

AN OUTSTANDING 1ST PRESS, IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT !!!

DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A LISTEN AND BE THE JUDGE YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN. ALL OF THE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED AND THERE IS NO COLOUR LOSS THROUGH RUBBING. THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE, THERE IS A LITTLE RUB TO THE CORNER TIP ENDS

THERE ARE SIX SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE WITH FOUR OF THEM BEING RIGHT AT THE VERY BOTTOM. THREE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, SIX ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES EITHER NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES DELICATE AND STILL MOSTLY COLOURED WITH A TINY SPECK OF RUB ON THE TOP LEFT AND RIGHT CORNER TIPS, AND A LITTLE MORE ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER AREA

THE SPINE HAS SOME LIGHT SQUASHING AND A LITTLE RUB TO THE TAPERED ENDS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE REAR SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE COLOUR AND LIKE THE FRONT JUST HAS SOME SMALL CREASE LINES NEAR THE PERIMETER EDGES

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS JUST WHY THIS LP HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE UNPLAYED FOR ALL THESE YEARS

THE  ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE  INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN  UNSPLIT AND ONLY LIGHTLY CREASED CONDITION

I AM VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

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