THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST ONE! TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE AND THAT'S ALL!
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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS 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 VINYL SOUNDS
THE VINYL PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
A TINY SPECK OF FACTORY EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT THE START OF SIDE ONE, JUST SOME VERY OCCASIONAL BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES.
I HEARD NO MORE THAN 2-3 MINUSCULE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS!!!
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS THOUGH
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE. THE DEEP BLUE COLOURS ARE RICH VIBRANT AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED. NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE AND THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PERFECT WITH ALL OF THE BLUE COLOUR PRISTINE AND TOTALLY UNMARKED AND UNRUBBED. EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE PERFECT
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. . AGAIN THE BLUE SURFACE IS PERFECT APART FROM A COUPLE OF WHITE FLECKS VISIBLE WHEN I HAVE PHOTGRAHED IT ON MACRO . NO COLOUR LOSS, NO RUBBING TO THE TIP ENDS, AND PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND EVEN FREE FROM ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS PERFECT.
THE CARD PICTURE / LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNCREASED, AND NO SPLITS TO ANY OF THE SEAMS.
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MAGNIFICENT SLEEVE MINT MINUS !!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
