SADLY, NOW THAT SUMMER'S ALMOST GONE AND WINTER DRAWS ON, TIME PERMITTING, I SHALL BE CONTINUING THE LISTING OF MORE BLUES, FOLK, ROCK AND SIMILAR LP'S FROM MY QUITE EXTENSIVE, BUT DWINDLING COLLECTION..AGAIN, HOPEFULLY, THEY WILL BE LISTED OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS... MOST ARE IN NICE CONDITION- SO WELL WORTH HAVING A LOOK!!
144 GRAM (approx) VINYL & BOTH LABELS ARE EASILY EXCELLENT+ OR BETTER CONDITION.. THERE ARE A FEW VERY FAINT IN-OUT INNER SLEEVE BRUSHINGS AND SOME LIGHT SWEAT MARKS ON SIDE 2 DUE TO POLYLINED INNER, WHICH DO NOT AFFECT PLAY, AND THERE IS ONE VERY FAINT SPINDLE MARK ON SIDE 2 LABEL, OTHERWISE BOTH BLUE/SILVER LABELS ARE ALMOST IMMACULATE-PLAYS THROUGH WITH MINIMAL SURFACE NOISE & WITH LITTLE DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY.. WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO IMPROVE UPON AND SHOULD PLEASE MOST FOLLOWERS OF LATE 60'S BRITISH BLUES FROM THIS ERA......
MOST OF THE LP'S BEING LISTED HAVE BEEN STORED (ALWAYS UPRIGHT) AND MAINLY UNPLAYED FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, SO WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY BENEFIT FROM A DEEP PROFESSIONAL CLEAN...
THE OUTER 'CLARIFOIL' LAMINATED ROBERT STACE THICK CARD GATEFOLD SLEEVE HAS VERY LIGHT STORAGE WEAR ONLY-THERE IS A TINY AMOUNT OF LAMINATE LIFT ADJACENT TO SPINE, SOFT CORNER BUMPS & A LIGHT BUMP ON TOP EDGE-ALL ONLY MINOR POINTS TO MENTION.. THERE ARE NO SPLITS, CREASES OR UNWANTED WRITING, INNER GATEFOLD IS VERY CLEAN AND UNAGED-THE SPINE IS SOLID WITH ALL TEXT CLEARLY READABLE & BOTH OPENING EDGES ARE VERY SHARP & UNFEATHERED-EASILY GRADES EXCELLENT+ OR BETTER CONDITION AND ONE SUPERB LP THAT SHOULD NOT DISAPPOINT.......
PLEASE NOTE: BEFORE POSTING, ALL VINYLS ARE REMOVED FROM THEIR OUTER SLEEVES TO PREVENT SEAM SPLITS, HOUSED IN NEW POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES, NEW OUTER PLASTIC COVERS AND PACKED WITH AT LEAST 4 (MORE IF NECESSARY) CORRUGATED CARDBOARD STIFFENERS TO MINIMISE THE RISK OF ANY DAMAGE DURING TRANSIT...
