Description
PLEASE NOTE - I AM AWAY ON HOLIDAY UNTIL 2nd MAY
I have been a music fan and vinyl enthusiast since the early 1970s and I am selling a large range of records covering a very wide variety of musical styles. They are all authentic original pressings, featuring quality music mostly from the 1970s and 1980s.
They have all been very well cared for, though I will give an honest appraisal of their condition and will put up plenty of photos of the actual items for sale so you can see exactly what you are bidding on. I endeavour to highlight anything in the description which I would want to be made aware of before deciding to place a bid. I am very aware that, as a distance buyer, you are entrusting in the honesty of the item descriptions and I always aim to describe the items truthfully and thoroughly.
All these records are deep cleaned using a professionally constructed wet vacuum system using only the highest purity record cleaning fluids so the vinyl is all very clean, glossy and dust free. Everything listed is, at the very least, very thoroughly test played, (minimum of at least 4-5 tracks across both sides) though almost always played right through on a quality deck and I apply high standards to my vinyl and would never list a record that I would not be perfectly happy to have in my own cherished record collection. In the case of rare or particularly interesting vinyls, I may list records which may fall short in some way of my usual standards, but this would always be very clearly highlighted in the descriptions.
I visually inspect every record under very bright light using an inspection lamp.
A note regarding the most important matter of all - the audio - as with all vinyl, even straight out of the cellophane, there can be light crackle or very light 'pops' during the quiet passages. I have listened carefully, at the very least in part, to all these records, so I will highlight in the descriptions any aspects of the audio playback which I consider to be outside the parameters of the very high standards I apply to my own listening. Please be assured that I would never sell 'fried breakfasts', only high quality records.
All records will be supplied to you in a good quality clear outer wallet to protect your sleeves.
**** DETAILS ABOUT THIS RECORD FOR SALE - PLEASE READ ****

Kate Bush - 'The Kick Inside' - original 1978 vinyl album in excellent condition. The matrix reads YAX - 5389 - 2 / 5390 - 1 with 'Rember (sic) Yourself' etched to the run out.
The vinyl is immaculate and with not so much as a spindle mark in sight and looking at the stunning condition of this vinyl, I would say in all probability that this album was unplayed prior to this evening and I have now played this album through and playback is superb throughout, and I am listening to the album as I type this, currently the sensational 'Them Heavy People', with one of my favourite ever drum beats and the audio is just superb, beautifully crisp and clear and delivering all of that richness and depth characteristic of the music produced from the source of high quality well cared for vinyl. If I was being super-critical, there is a touch of audible crackle to the 'howling' intro to side 1, track 1, 'Moving', but this is purely confined to the intro and from there on in this album plays like a peach.
The unmistakable laminated Garrod and Lofthouse high gloss sleeve is in lovely condition with only the very lightest of any wear commensurate with age and careful handling, i.e. a touch of creasing to the spine and it presents really well in its brand new top quality clear protective jacket.
The vinyl is now housed in a brand new high quality poly-lined inner sleeve for safekeeping and to preserve the original EMI standard 'Care For Your Record' company inner's excellent condition, which is included for completeness and, being dated 1978. adds a lovely authentic period touch to this fabulous album.
This record in a nutshell : you'd have to go a very long way to find as superb looking and sounding a copy of Kate Bush's seminal 1978 debut album as this one. The sleeve is in lovely shape and the freshly deep cleaned vinyl delivers a superb pin sharp audio and this album would make a great addition to anyone's pop/rock playing vinyl collection.
Please take a look at the photographs as these are all of the actual item for sale and provide an accurate indication of this album's lovely condition. I certainly have never seen or heard a better copy than this.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The records will be sent to you very thoroughly packaged in high quality heavy duty cardboard mailers with card stiffeners.
I am always very happy to combine postage.
I will be listing lots of other very varied high quality records over the coming days and weeks and I have other listings currently running so please check out my other items for sale and thank you for looking.
