THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE BLUE AND WHITE COLOURED LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS ONE NEAR INVISIBLE SPIDER LINE AROUND IT, SHOWING HOW LITTLE THIS VINYL HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES

 

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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.

NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS

ISLAND/CHRYSALIS VINYL USUALLY HAS A LITTLE VINYL NOISE DUE TO THE PRESSING AND THIS ONE HAS JUST THE BAREST SPECK OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND, WHICH CAN ONLY BE HEARD OCCASIONALLY IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES, OR MOST SILENT PASSAGES 

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN ONE TINY  DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS !!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SEMI LAMINATED  SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY  HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THE DEEP COLOURS ARE ALL UNRUBBED

THE COLOURS ARE JUST PRISTINE. NO RUBBING OR WEAR

INCREDIBLY THERE ARE JUST TWO MICROSCOPIC LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE  BOTTOM EDGE, AND ONE THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH IMMACULATE. NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR. ONLY THE TOP RIGHT TIP END HAS A PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE RED TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE BASE COLOUR IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT.WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM TIP

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT.

THE CARD PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO MARKS OR STAINS.  

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE MINT MINUS !!!

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT

GARRY
