THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
BEAUTIFUL PASTEL BLUE LABELS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION, WITH JUST A SMALL BLACK MARK ON SIDE TWO. THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. JUST 2-3 SMALL AND BARELY VISIBLE SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED IN THE 43 YEARS SINCE IT WAS PRESSED.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED. IN DAY LIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS AND THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OF ANY DESCRIPTION, AND ONLY WHEN OFFERED UPTO INTENSE ILLUMINATION AM I ABLE TO MAKE OUT A FEW TINIEST WISPY HAIRLINES, AND A COUPLE OF HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES
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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
A TRUE FIRST PRESS PERFORMANCE WITH A STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. SILENT RUN IN'S AND LINKING GROOVES LEADING TO PERFECT SOUND PLAYED WITHOUT DISTORTION THUS NO GROOVE WEAR
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY SERIOUS BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS, AND NO VINYL NOISE
YOU MAY HEAR SOME VERY VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN SOME OF THE QUIETEST SPOTS, AND I ONLY HEARD IT BECAUSE I SIT NO MORE THAN 18 INCHES FROM MY SPEAKERS AS I TYPE THIS OUT. MOVING TO NORMAL LISTENING DISTANCE AND IT WAS INAUDIBLE
THERE ARE SOME RANDOM LITTLE DUST POPS AND TICS HERE AND THERE
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC'S PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT!!!!
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE
