MikesListeningBooth ????  If you'd like to hear MP3 samples of the actual LP listed, please let me know and I can send you a private link. I play all my vinyl in full as part of grading and also record/convert to hi-res MP3. 

Notes:

• 1979 Canada 1st Press on Casablanca/Polygram - NB 7049
• No Barcode

• Excellent quality vinyl makes this a great collectible item
• Also has slight differences in label to the USA and Europe versions: colouring on the label is subtly different and the 'KISS' credit on each song is printed in the original logo format and not in standard font.  

Condition: 

• Please read and remember this is a 38 year old vintage item ???? pics and grading are honest so please look. 
• Graded VERY CRITICALLY under VERY bright spotlight + test play. Pics show item under bright spotlights. 

Vinyl Surfaces EX 

Visual Inspection/Bright Light: VG+

• Moderate hairlines, a few more noticable light scratches and a 'ring' scratch around 1/2 of one track, but doesn't affect play.  
• Great Sheen

Visual Inspection - Bright Daylight: EX

Audio Test - with Audio Technica Deck and Studio headphones. EX+

• Light background noise in gaps between tracks and a few clicks here and there but nothing major. 
• Excellent pressing and great sound quality. 

Vinyl Labels - EX 

• No marks 

• Colours and printed text all perfect 

• Tiny amount of wear on spindle holes 

Outer Sleeve EX+

• Nice sheen all round 

• No major marks, creases on front or back covers. No discolouration.  

• Moderate wear on corners/edges.  

• Moderate to Heavy wear on spine, no crushing, no splits, but visible wear and not all print remains. 

Vinyl Care/Preparation

• I hand-clean every vinyl listed using L'Arc Du Son cleaning solution. This removes old grease, dust etc. to improve the playback quality. This does sometimes leave residue marks, but these don't affect play. 

• Once cleaned, I 'buff' the Vinyl using a very soft cleaning-cloth, then place it into an anti-static black sleeve. This sleeve is supplied with the Vinyl you buy. 

•  I also carefully clean and dry the Vinyl outer sleeves to remove old finger marks, dirt and dust. Once done the sleeves are placed into a PVC sleeve to keep them nice and clean, they are shipped with the plastic sleeve. 

•  Vinyls are then listened to end-to-end before grading, in order to make sure they don't skip etc. BEWARE VISUAL-ONLY GRADINGS...some Vinyls that look Near Mint to the eye have skips, others that look marked play near-perfectly. I've learned that you can't grade a Vinyl without listening to it :) 

•  All of the above is done to help buyers be sure of what they are getting before they spend hard-earned money! 

Shipping & Payment 

• Well packaged in stiff, thick card mailer + Stiffeners for protection. 

• Vinyl will be removed from inner and securely packed during shipping to prevent splits

• I don't make money on shipping ????
