THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ISLAND ROOUGH TEXTURED LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION, THE PASTEL PINK COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE APPEAR TO BE ONLY 3-4 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE
THE VINYL
IN DAYLIGHT THE LP LOOKS ABSOLUETLY SUPERB, AND NOT A MARK ON IT. WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE A A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF SMALL SCUFF MARKS TO BE SEEN
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, AS I NOW DO WITH ALL OF MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CERTAIN THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THE LP SOUNDS LIKE
THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB. THE CRYSTAL CLEAR INSTRUMENTATION AND VOCALS ARE PURE FIRST PRESS. THERE IS CERTAINLY NO GROOVE WEAR TO THIS RARE RECORDING WHICH WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN SOME DISTORTION TO THE SOUND. THERE IS NONE.
ISLAND RECORDINGS HAVE LONG BEEN LAMBASTED FOR THE POOR QUALITY OF VINYL USED IN THEIR EARLY LP'S WHICH HAVE OFTEN RESULTED IN UNWANTED VINYL NOISE EVEN WHERE THERE ARE NO MARKS. BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE 4 RECORDINGS BECAUSE IT'S ALL THERE GOOD AND BAD.
WHAT YOU HAVE HERE IS FOR THE MOST PART IS NOISE FREE LISTENING, COUPLED WITH SOME LIGHT VINYL NOISE FROM THIS ISLAND PRESS. A FEW RANDOM POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAY, BUTULTIMATELY IT IS THE MUSIC WHICH COMES THROUGH LOUD AND CLEAR
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS FOR YOURSELF
I WOULD GRADE THIS ALBUM EXCELLENT PLUS / NEAR MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHINE TO THE LAMINATE,AND LOOKS SUPERB. THE ONLY CREASE LINE IS ACROSS THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER. OTHER THAN THIS JUST 4 SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE JUST PRISTINE AGAIN. NO SHELF WEAR AT ALL.
THE SPINE IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. ALL OF THE LAMINATE INTACT AND THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS TO SHOW WHERE THE ALBUM WAS REMOVED A FEW TIMES
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME GREAT SHAPE AS THE FRONT
THE SLEEVE LIKE THE LP GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS / NEAR MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
