Description

I am selling some of my personal vinyl collection. Many of these records are UK pressings and were purchased by me new in the 1970’s/80’s. They have been extremely well looked after, having only been played a handful of times on Linn or Rega turntables with a light stylus tracking force of 1.5 to 1.75 g.

Unless stated otherwise, the vinyl can be considered as in near mint or excellent condition, shiny and with no significant marks – basically almost as good as when it came out of the original shop. The covers vary in condition but most are excellent just showing the usual signs of storage. Most have been stored in plastic protective covers.

A word about hairline marks. It is almost impossible to find any non-sealed record without any hairline marks - many had them from new, particularly if sold with cardboard inner sleeves. They are a result of storage and use and have little impact on sound quality. Likewise, very few original vinyl records lie totally flat. As for background noise, all records will have some background noise which varies wildly and often reflects the very variable pressing quality. I have bought new heavy pressing LP's in recent years and many of the original records I am selling not only look better but they sound better! I only draw attention to marks, warping or background noise in my listings if I consider them significant.

This album is Neil Young's classic "On The Beach" LP on Reprise K54014.

Matrix marks A4/B4 - UK pressing.

Vinyl grading is a good solid "Excellent Minus/Very Good Plus" according to the Record Collector Guide. Overall the record plays very nicely but there are one or two light marks which play as very low level audible "ticks" the most noticeable being on the quiet "For The Turnstiles" track.

The records have been professionally cleaned using a £3,000 Keith Monks Omni VII Record Cleaning Machine which results in low background noise and opening up of the sound.

Test played superbly on my new Rega RP6 turntable with excellent dynamic sound.

The original cover with rare floral printed inner is in excellent condition as is the inner sleeve. Plastic outer cover and Nagaoka inner sleeve.

I dispatch worldwide in reinforced heavy duty LP mailers with cardboard reinforcements either side.

Please see my other listings with many auctions of classic rock albums to come so save me as a favourite seller. Typical postage prices as follows and combined postage with other albums saves money (double album counts as 2 records):

UK: 1 record £3.50, 2 records £4.50, 3 records £6.

EU: 1 record £5.50, 2 records £7, 3 records £8.50.

International: 1 record £8.50, 2 records £10, 3 records £11.50.

Some countries may require International Signed For so please ask.

Please see my feedback, particularly on other records I have sold, and thanks for looking.
