THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE ORANGE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ON THEM AT ALL. THE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE ZERO TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND TO THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS DYNAFLEX DISC IN CLEAN CONDITION. IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A FEW WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES ON THE SURFACE ONLY, AND SOME DULL EMBEDDED SILVER FLECKS ON SIDE ONE.

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 NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE LP BEFORE LAYING ANY BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

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

THE REPRODUCTION IS CLEAN WITH EVERY NOTE BEING CRISP AND CLEAR. CERTAINLY NO DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, AND NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE VERY ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY ADUIBLE STATIC HERE AND THERE IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES, PLUS A COUPLE OF ROTATIONS OF LIGHT CRACKLE ON THE THIRD TRACK SIDE ONE

THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH, JUST A FEW RANDOM NEAR INAUDIBLE STATIC TICS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
