QUALITY 159g
It is the much RARER LOUD CUT version which was pulled shortly after it's release in 1965, which are now becoming increasingly difficult to find in any condition.
There are many light marks to the vinyl, which is why she is graded VISUALLY as VG..
However, after giving her a gentle vacuum clean I played her all the way through I certainly didn't find any jumps or skips-just RAW, clear sound!
I found a tiny bit of VERY soft crackle in the transition between What Goes On, into Girl and a couple of soft pops in the next transition between tracks..But again: nothing offensive what-so-ever....I am being rather critical.
Lovely shine and weight.
SHE SOUNDS LOUD!
I was INCREDIBLY happy with the audio reproduction. There was barely any background noise-Nothing particularly noticeable at all...Even the run-ins were lovely and quiet, as were the transitions between tracks (aprt from the aboce stated and even that wasn’t an issue)-a sure testament to quality vinyl produced in 1965!
WONDERFULLY CLEAN & CLEAR AUDIO REPRODUCTION
GLORIOUSLY RAW
The Bass line really comes across on Norwegian Wood-I've never noticed it quite so pronounced before...Interesting :)
NO SKIPS/STICKS OR JUMPS.
Labels:
VG+
Nice and clear on both side.
There are only very light spindle marks, visible when angled towards the light.
Minimal central hole wear.
Lovely and bright.
NO WRITING
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES PROVIDED AND CLICK ON THEM TO GET EVEN LARGER IMAGES-WITH MORE DETAIL
Also-why not check out my feedback for true gradings and happy customers.
Cover:
VG(+).
Shiny front cover...
VERY strong clear and clean spine.
Strong corners, with a small degree of light rubbing.
Garrod and Lofthouse flipbacks in SOLID condition.
I can see some spidering to the front laminate, with a line to the top left and bottom right corner and some small crescents near the opening. With small fingers of spidering emanating from the seams....Nothing terrible at all.
NO WRITING
NO SPLITS
Please see the detailed images for yourselves.
A solid example-with just some light wear to her due to use/storage-but don't we all?!?
Inner:
Near Mint
I HAVE JUST UPGRADED THIS...
It is the all ORIGINAL "USE EMITEX" with the tracing-paper-like-lining.
In TOP condition
NO SPLITS.
NO WRITING.
Barely even any creasing!
ALL IN ALL, A RARE ALBUM IN VERY GOOD(+) SOLID CONDITION THROUGHOUT-EVEN THOUGH SHE CARRIES MANY LIGHT MARKS, THE AUDIO PROVIDED IS CLEAN AND CLEAR THROUGHOUT.
GETTING HARD TO FIND THIS ALBUM IN SUCH GREAT ALL-ROUND CONDITION.
SOUNDS GREAT AND LOOKS GREAT
