THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE CREAM, LABELS ARE IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES, WHICH HAVE 1-2 BARELY VISIBLE SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS SUPERB. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT,AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.
UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO EACH SIDE STILL LOOKS PRISTINE WITH NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE WISPY LINES
THE TEST PLAY
THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY WELL . THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, MEANING NO GROOVE WEAR.
GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE ALL YOU HEAR IS NEAR SILENCE. NO CRACKLES ANYWHERE, AND THIS INCREDIBLE STANDARD IS MAINTAINED ALL THROUGH ALL FOUR SIDES.
THE RUN IN IS SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS SILENT
NO VINYL NOISE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS, SKIPS STICKS OR JUMPS
NO TICS OR POPS AT ALL
NO AUDIBLE BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF RANDOM TINY SPLIT SECOND SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE STUFF
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE!
I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GIMMIX SLEEVE
IF YOU KNOW THIS ALBUM YOU WILL APPRECIATE HOW INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT IT IS TO GET ONE THAT WOULD BE FIT FOR A DECENT COLLECTUON.
TEARS RUB, CREASES, BENT AND DAMGED INTERLOCK ARE JUST A FEW OF THE THINGS THIS SLEEVE CAN SUFFER FROM

THE LOCKING TAB IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION
THERE ARE TWO VERY SMALL PRESSURE LINES AGAINST THE LEFT SPINE, AND THREE ON THE RIGHT
THE BARE CAR TOP EDGES ARE VERY SHARP
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP EDGES ARE PLAIN BARE CARD AND ARE STILL VERY SHARP
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS FULLY BLACK WITH UNBLEMISHED CORNERS
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM SQUASHING. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. BOTH SPINES ARE FULLY COLOURED WITH PERFECT ENDS
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS PERFECT AS THE FRONT. JUST A TINY RUB ARC AT THE TOP
