THE VINYL
THE ORIGINAL SHEEN HAS BEEN RETAINED AND LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT
AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS, THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A FEW VERY WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN
THE LABELS
DEEP RICH INKS THAT FULL STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE
A CLOSE EXAMINATION REVEALS JUST 3-4 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE GENUINE FIRST PRESS LABELS WITH 'THE GRAMOPHONE CO' RIM WORDING. LATER PRESSES HAD EMI RECORDING AT THIS POINT.
NO BOXED EMI LOGO WHICH IS ALSO A FIRST ISSUE INDICATOR
BOTH LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE GREEN HARVEST BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND IS UNMARKED
THE TEST PLAY
AN ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE 1ST PRESS WHICH PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION
THE FIRST THING TO SAY IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND EVERY NOTE IS LOUD, CLEAN AND CRISP, JUST HOW IT WAS INTENDED TO BE HEARD.
THERE IS NO FRYING BACON, NOR ARE THERE ANY LOUD CLICKS
THE STERO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT AND I ONLY HEARD A COUPLE OF RANDOM SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND DURING THE ENTIRE PLAY
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POP, TICKS OR CLICKS AT ALL DURING THE PLAY
VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE UNLAMINATED AND HAVE A LITTLE SPORADIC RUB
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN SUPERB CONDITION,

PERFECT ENDS AND TEXT
THE REAR SURFACE LIKE THE FRONT HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE RICH DARK COLOUR. AGAIN A GLOSSY LAMINATE
