THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE MAGENTA AND ORANGE ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN, AND IN FACT AS I GENTLY PLACED IT ON MY TURNTABLE IS COULD HEAR AND FEEL THE EXCESS VINYL INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLE LIGHTLY GIVING WAY, PROVING THAT THIS LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN ON A TURNTABLE

I HAD TO GET A MAGNIFY ING GLASS OUT TO SPOT THE ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE SO CLOSE TO THE HOLE THAT IT REALLY IS  DIFFICULT TO SEE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HAS RETAINED IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IS QUITE MAGNIFICENT. GLEAMING LIKE A MIRROR, IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION, THERE IS NOTHING BUT A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN

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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I JUST KNOW THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS 1970 FIRST PRESS IS THAT IT SIMPLY SUPERB!!!

THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITHOUT ANY TRACE OF DISTORTION CAUSED THROUGH GROOVE WEAR. A STUNNING STEREO REPRODUCTION WITH NOTES BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEANLY.

THE LP HAS SO MANY SILENT OR VERY QUIET PASSAGES THAT ANY SURFACE NOISE WOULD INSTANTLY BE DETECTED

THIS ALBUM HAS ONLY EVER HAD ONE PLAY FROM NEW PLUS MY VERY CAREFUL AND UNDETECTABLE TEST PLAY

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE JOT OF VINYL NOISE

A COUPLE OF RANDOM SPLIT SECONDS OF STATIC HERE AND THERE, AND I CAN'T SAY THAT I HEARD ANY DUST POPS OR TICS WHATSOEVER

BUT IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN IMMACULATE COPY OF THIS LP THEN LOOK NO FURTHER. THIS IS A PRIZED GEM, AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS NEAR MINT!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS SUPERB LP AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

FULLY LAMINATED E.J.DAY LTD GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN.AND THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS SLEEVE HAS BEEN WELL PROTECTED FROM NEW

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. AND AMAZINGLY JUST ONE TINY LAMINATE LINE NEAR THE SPINE AND ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE,  AND ONE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THERE IS ALSO A TINY PATCH OF LAMINATE LIFT IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECTLY ADHERED FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN IMMACULATE CONDITION. AGAIN THIS IS PERFECTLY LAMINATED AND THERE ISN'T ANY RUB OR WEAR, EVEN TO THE TOP END BOTTOM TIP ENDS.

IT IS 100% FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS SUPERB AS THE FRONT, WITH ONE FINE LINE RUNNING NEAR THE SPINE, AND ONE SMALL THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE INNER. A DELICATE BLACK SURFACE THAT IS UNMARKED, AND FREE FROM ANY STAINS ETC

THE INNER IS STILL SUPREMELY WHITE AND TOTALLY UNSPLIT. AND IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION, JUST A LIGHT RECORD OUTLINE

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

IT IS THAT GOOD

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