THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREEN HARVEST LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. DEEP BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO SIGNS OF HANDLING WHATSOEVER.
NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE OR LOGO'S
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE WHATSOEVER.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE. A PRISTINE VINYL IN EVERY WAY
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 FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND ONLY THE ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN THE FIRST 30 SECONDS OF TRACK ONE
I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS !!!!!!!!!
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
SEMI-LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR. SPECK OF RUB TO THE TWO LEFT CORNERS AT THE EDGES
THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE HAS A SPECK OF RUN TO THE CORNERS AND ONE SMALL WHITE FLECK CLOSE TO THE RIGHT CORNER. THE BOTTOM EDGE ONLY HAS A LITTLE RUB AT THE RIGHT CORNER
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS HAVE A TINY SPECK OF RUBBING ON EACH ONE, AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF WHITE FLECKS ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE AND A FEW ON THE MAIN SURFACE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO NEAR PRISTINE INNER PANELS WITH A LITTLE BROWNING EITHER SIDE OF THE SPINE
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT. NO LINES EVEN NEXT TO THE SPINE
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM IT HAS NO CREASES OR WRINKLES, NO MARKS OR STAINS, AND NO SPLITS EITHER
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
