THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE ISLAND PALM TREE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. , THE COLOURS ARE WHITE WHERE THEY NEED TO BE AND RICH AND VIBRANT WHERE THERE IS NO WHITE. THERE ARE JUST TWO TINY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ON EACH SIDE TO SHOW WHERE THIS LP HAS HAD JUST A COUPLE OF CAREFUL PLAYS, PLUS ON SIDE ONT THERE IS STILL RESIDUAL VINYL ATTACHED TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE ORIGINAL SHEEN HAS BEEN RETAINED AND THE VINYL LOOKS MINT IN DAYLIGHT. NO FINGERMARKS, NO SIGNS OF POOR HANDLING. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A SPOTLIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. A STUNNING PRISTINE VINYL
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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 LP FROM START TO FINISH TO ALLOW ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER TO HEAR THE EXACT ALBUM BEFORE DECIDING TO BID
THE LP'S 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 LP SOUNDS.
THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO PERFECTION
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF SPECKS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC
NO TICS OR POPS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH HAVE A LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD IN NEAR PRISTINE CONDITION.
THE FRONT SURFACE WHICH OFTEN HAS COLOUR LOSS, IS JUST SUPERB. RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAS RETAINED JUST ABOUT ALL OF THE DEEP COLOUR, JUST THE ABSOLUTE MINIMLA SPECK OF GREYING UNDER THE TOP EDGE, AND ABOVE THE BOTTOM EDGE. SERIOUSLY VERY MINIMAL!
NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, NOR ANY BENDS OR DINGS. NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO PRESSURE LINES AGAINST 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 HAVE VIRTUALLY ALL OF THE EASILY RUBBED COLOURS INTACT WITH ONLY A FEW TINY SPECKS OF RUB VISIBLE
THE SPINE IS JUST FANTASTIC! IT IS PERFECTLY SQUARE, HAS NO RUBBING OR COLOUR LOSS ANYWHERE, OTHER THAN A TINY SPECK OF THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. EVERY SINGLE LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE HAS A LIGHT RIPPLE JUST IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER AREA, AND A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE. NO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. ONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE BLACK AND WHITE INNER PANELS.
THIS IS A ROBOR SLEEVE
THE BLUE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SPLIT FREE, CREASE FREE CONDITION
I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
