THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE MATT BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES.
THE SILVER LOGO'S AND TYPEFACE WHICH IS OFTEN FOUND RUBBED AWAY IS IN PERFECT CONDITION ON BOTH DISCS, WITH EACH LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THERE ARE JUST TWO TINY SPIDER LINES ON EACH SIDE OF THE LABEL, PLUS AS I PLACED THE RECORDS ONTO MY TURNTABLE I COULD HEAR AND FEEL RESIDUAL VINYL INSIDE THE HOLE
IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THIS ALBUM HAS ONLY BEEN PLAYED A COUPLE OF TIMES EVER.
THE VINYL
BOTH VINYLS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THEY GLEAM LIKE THEY WERE JUST PRESSED AND THERE IS NO FOGGING OR ANY MARKS ON EITHER OF THE ALBUMS.THEY LOOK FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A FEW WISPY LINES AND A FINE ANGEL HAIR HANDLING LINE ON SIDE A
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 LP SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORDS BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
I HOPE YOU AGREE THAT THE REPRODUCTION FROM THIS SET IS JUST BRILLIANT. BOTH DISCS PLAY MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. TRYING TO FIND A GREAT COPY OF THIS ALBUM IS VERY HARD AS IT WAS A VERY POPULAR LP IN IT'S DAY AND MOST COPIES ARE TRASHED WITH SLEEVES TO MATCH. HERE WE HAVE WHAT I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS A NEAR FAULTLESS PERFORMANCE.
THE FIRST THING TO NOTE IS THAT THE SOUND IS DISTORTION FREE APART FROM THE GUITAR WORK THAT SHOULD SOUND DISTORTED OF COURSE. THIS SHOWS THAT THE LP'S WERE PLAYED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY TRACKED STYLUS, AND ONE THAT WASN'T DAMAGED EITHER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
I SAID NEAR FAULTLESS IN MY DESCRIPTION, BUT I AM BEING VERY PICKY HERE. THERE IS THE ODD BIT OF WHAT I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS LIGHT STATIC IN SOME OF THE QUIETEST SPOTS ( run in and a couple of linking grooves) . I ALSO HEARD ABOUT THREE SMALL DUST POPS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PLAY OF THE FOUR SIDES.
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THiS BEAUTIFUL VINYL SET NEAR MINT!!!
THE SLEEVE
SUPERB E.J DAY AND CO LAMINATED GATEFOLD
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND JUST GLEAMS LIKE A MIRROR. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, NO CREASE LINES, NO BENDS, AND ABSOLUTELY NO RING WEAR JUST MILD RECORD SHAPE. .
THERE ARE JUST SEVEN SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE TWO NEAR THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES. AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, ALTHOUGH THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE CHIP TO THE LAMINATE ON THE TOP EDGE. THE CORNER TIPS ARE ALSO LIGHTLY RUBBED.
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED. THE LAMINATE HAS A FEW TINY SPLITS ALONG THE MIDDLE
THE TWO OPENING EDGES ARE STILL VERY SHARP WITH JUST A FEW TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT WITH JUST A FEW LINES NEAR THE SPINE, AND A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A FULLY LAMINATED IMMACULATE PAIR OF INNER PANELS. NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES.
THE TWO POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES ARE FLAT AND CLEAN AND BARELY HAVE A CREASE LINE ON THEM.THEY ARE BOTH STILL VERY WHITE AND TOTALLY UNSPLIT, WITH JUST SOME LIGHT RECORD SHAPE
THIS SLEEVE EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT MINUS
THIS COPY WOULD GRACE ANY COLLECTION
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
