Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.com JANIS JOPLIN - I GOT DEM OL' KOZMIC BLUES AGAIN MAMAMAGNIFICENT MINT MINUS / EX+ PLAYTHROUGH CONDITION
FIRST PRESS ON THE 2 EYE COLUMBIA LABEL LABEL
INCREDIBLE SHRINKWRAPPED SLEEVE WITH PVC HYPE STICKER
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE RED COLUMBIA LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS UNRUBBED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE, AND THERE ARE JUST 1-2 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE TO DEMONSTRATE HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION, NO LOSS OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE WHATSOEVER. IN DAYLIGHT THE RECORD LOOKS IMMACULATE AND UNBLEMISHED IN ANY WAY.
WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO I SEE A SMALL PAIR OF HANDLING LINES ON SIDE A, AND A COUPLE OF TINY DULL MARKS ON SIDE B
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH VERY CLEANLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS GLORIOUS SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THIS LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE AT ALL, AND BARELY NO STATIC WHATSOEVER.
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ALL EITHER
ON SIDE TWO THERE ARE A FEW RANDOM TINY ROTATIONAL TICS ( REALLY LOW LEVEL) MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS / EX+
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT AND YOU BE THE JUDGE OF IT'S QUALITY
THE SLEEVE
INCREDIBLE ORIGINAL SINGLE SLEEVE IN THE SHRINKWRAP AND HAVING THE PVC KOZMIC BLUES STICKER ATTACHED
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNMARKED APART FROM A DING ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. THE COLOURED SURFACE IS JUST IMMACULATE, AND IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS SLEEVE HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC SLEEVE FROM NEW,
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASE LINES , IN AMAZINGLY NOT ONE SMALL LINE NEAR THE SPINE. NOR ARE THERE ANY OTHER LINES NEAR THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A THINIEST SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM TIPS
THE SHRINK WRAP IS PERFECT. TIGHT BUT NOT TIGHT ENOUGH TO MAR THE SLEEVE.
THE PVC STICKER IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION
THE TOP EDGE HAS A LITTLE LIGHT SHELF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM SQUASHING. JUST A DOT OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM TIP END
THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST RAZOR SHARP,APART FROM A TINY SPECK OF FEATHERING AT THE BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS STUNNING AS THE FRONT, AGAIN NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO SMALL LINES ANYWHERE
NO RECORD SHAPE NO RING WEAR!!!
THE COMPANY ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE HAS A TINY SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOTTOM EDGE ONLY. NO CREASES OR AGEING
A REALLY INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE AND I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE IT MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
