Welcome to 'Its the vinyl countdown' music auctions. Here you will find some of the most incredible rare records and music memorabilia for your collection. We pride ourselves on auctioning only the highest grade records and items, you will not see anything listed here below EX+ condition, unles the item is extremely rare. You will not see worn covers, warped records or scratched records. We simply do not bother with them.

We list in many cases, 'Archived' & 'mint' condition items, we are able to source from private collections all over the UK. So we hope you can be put at ease that what you are bidding on is of the highest quality.

We play through most of the records, unless the item is clearly mint, or sealed..in which case we don't play them, thus maintaining their 'unplayed' status!  Obviously with some of these rare items there will be the odd 'anomoly' along the way , the odd little static pop or lead in 'sizzle' for a split second.. nothing is perfect we find! all systems differ, but we aim to describe these as accurately as possible for you.... PLEASE ENJOY THIS ITEM YOU ARE NOW LOOKING AT..

THE VINYL   MINT-  STRONG   PLAYS INCREDIBLE

As you can see, this vinyl is the 1977 A-2U pressing  -

Stored from new this LP has seen... INCREDIBLY JUST TWO PLAYS AND ARCHIVED..

We were told the previous owner taped their records onto casette to preserve the vinyls!!

 THIS COPY PLAYS AS GOOD AS WE HAVE EVER HEARD... STUNNING THROUGHOUT.

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is  no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

There are NO  spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There is barely a hint of any whisp lines, and thats it-  nothing else! 

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves.... this is easily as clean a copy as we can hope to hear.

The quiet passages sound really superb..SUPER CLEAN!!!..

A very rare record to see at all these days..

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

 

THE LABELS   MINT 

 

THE SLEEVE     EX+ 

Correct FLAT MATT GATEFOLD UK issued sleeve  - with SUPER WIDE SPINE

PRINTER CREDITS -  GARROD & LOFTHOUSE

 This is in simply incredible condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean. MOST SLEEVES OF THIS LP AS WE ALL KNOW, SUFFER TERIBLY WITHOUT VERY CAREFUL HANDLING..

THIS ONE IS A SUPER EXAMPLE

The edges are all super clean with SOME FINE traces of rub on the edges

 All colours and inks remain in outstanding condition

No  ringwear - no press,  & no white rubbing anywhere - 

SOME LIGHT spider lines on the edge and spine.

Just some very light ip rub on the corners

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition -

The spine is super , has the two white 'tram lines' as all G&L sleeves did..and there is just some light edge rub.

AND the open out of the gatefold is  pristine

WE CANNOT SAY MORE THAN THIS REALLY IS QUITE SPECTACULAR.

 

THE INNER SLEEVE   EX+

Original BLACK CARD THUMB SCOOPED INNER SLEEVE, WITH THE ROUNDED CORNERS (Later ones were not rounded and much thinner)

NO SCISSORING OR DAMAGE ANYWHERE.. THE THUMB GROOVE IS SUPER SHARP, JUST A FEW TINY WHITE SPECKLES ON THE SIDE SEAMS..BUT NOTHING TO WORRY OVER..IT IS AS GOOD AS WE HAVE SEEN..

  LP kept in further poly sleeve inside.

OVERALL... THIS IS ONE OF THE FINEST 'ANIMALS' WE THINK YOU ARE LIKELY TO SEE.. IT REALLY IS A BEAUTY.
