THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED AND PLUM LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE WHITEBAND IS STILL WHITE AND NOT SOILED AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.  THERE ARE JUST 3-4 MINUSCULE SPIDERS LINE BY EACH HOLE SHOWING WHY THIS VINYL IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL  IS  CLEAN AND MARK FREE. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF ULTRA FINE ANGEL HAIRLINES VISIBLE.

 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 JUST KNOW THAT POTENTIAL BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE,MEANING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THE LP HAS RECEIVED WERE COMPLETED ON SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FIRST PRESS ALL THE WAY. JUST CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL

THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE JUST THE ODD SECOND OR TWO OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE STUFF

I HEARD 2-3 LITTLE STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS CLASSIC ALBUM AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED AND VERY HEAVILY TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM THE USA. THIS IS NOT A MISTAKE OR A SWAP IT IS GENUINELY HOW THE VERY 1ST COPIES OF THIS ALBUM WERE RELEASED HERE IN THE UK. THERE ARE MANY EXAMPLES OF WARNER/ATLANTIC UK PRESSINGS TO BE SITUATED IN US SLEEVES. FOUR WAY STREETS ANOTHER CSNY ALBUM ALSO HAS THE SAME PAIRING.

THIS US SLEEVE IS FAR HEAVIER AND SUPERIOR THAN THE UK CERSION. THE COVER IS MORE LIKE A BOOK THAN A SLEEVE. BERY THICK CARD WITH AN ELEPHANT HIDE TEXTURED FINISH

THIS IS USUALLY AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE TO FIND IN A REAL COLLECTIBLE CONDITION BECAUSE THE BROWN SURFACE IS SO EASILY WORN THROUGH, AND MOST COPIES LOOK TERRIBLE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND IN STUNNING ORIGINAL CONDITION. BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER FROM NEW THERE HAS BEEN NO RUBBING TO THE TEXTURED SURFACE THEREFORE THE BROWN SURFACE IS STILL A VERY DEEP BROWN. THERE IS THE TINIEST STAIN IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND ZERO LINES AGAINST THE SPINE . NO LINES ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE PASTE ON PHOTOGRAPH IS ALSO IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION AND REMAINS UNBLEMISHED. THE GOLD TYPEFACE IS ALSO IN PERFECT MINT CONDITION.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALSO MINT. WITH ALL OF THE BROWN COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE PERFECT

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT , 100% UNSQUASHED WITH  ALL OF THE COLOUR RETAINED , THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE MINT

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE SMALL THUMB NAIL NICK ALONG THE REAR EDGE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME STUNNING STATE AS THE FRONT.  

NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE ON EITHER FRONT OR BACK SURFACES OF THIS SLEEVE.

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS

THE  POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT  AND STILL VERY WHITE AND UNCREASED HAS THE PRINT DATE ON 1170 (NOV 1970) IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER

HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE MINT

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