THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREEN AND ORANGE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE WHITE BAND IS NOT SOILED AT ALL . THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE IS JUST ONE NEAR INVISIBLE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE
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 FOR YOU TO LISTEN TO BEFORE DECIDING TO MAKE A BID. I NOW DO THIS WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I KNOW THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE CLARITY OF THIS ALBUM IS SUPERB, AND THE INTRODUCTION TO 'ROCK AND ROLL' IS JUST INCREDIBLE
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
THE VINYL PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE SEMI SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES, AND SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS, JUST A FEW RANDOM LITTLE STATIC TYPE TICS
FOR ME THIS SUPERB VINYL GRADES NEAR MINT!!!!
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A FULL LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED STRONG CARDED GATEFOLD SLEEVE. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. THE COLOURS HAVE ALL BEEN RETAINED AND THERE IS NO RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER. THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
NO RINGWEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGE IS IMMACULATE WITH ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE CORNER TIP ENDS HAVE REMAINED PERFECT.
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED. THE COLOURS ARE ALL PERFECT AND THIS INCLUDES THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS SIMILAR TO THE FRONT. ONCE AGAIN PERFECT UNMARKED COLOURS AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE. NO LINES AGAINST THE EDGES
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE JET BLACK BASE COLOUR. THIS IS VERY UNUSUAL AS MOST WILL BE QUITE HEAVILY WORN. THIS ONE IS WITHOUT DOUBT THE BEST I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS.
THE INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED, AND IMPORTANTLY UNLIKE MANY THIS COPY HAS NO SEAM SPLITS
THE SLEEVE GRADES MINT !!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
