THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE MAUVE AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW TINY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES
A GLEAMING MARK FREE RECORD
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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 DOUBLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE 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
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND SHOULD BECAUSE THE DISC CLEARLY HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THERE ARE SO MANY QUIET OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM AND IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER
JUST A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN AA COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED AND HAS A REMARKABLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO MINT MINUS
BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE
BY ROBERT STACE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS CLEAN BRIGHT COLOURS THAT HAVE REMAINED UNRUBBED
THERE IS A REALLY TINY PAPER SNAG IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
SHARP SQUARE CORNERS
THERE ARE FOUR TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGES HAVE ALL OF THE COLOUR RUNNING ACCROSS THE SURFACE WITH ALL FOUR CORNER TIPS UNBLEMISHED
THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE LIGHT SHELF RUB
THE SPINE IS FULLY COLOURED WITH PERFECT TYPEFACE . THE TOP AND BOTTOM ENDS HAVE A LITTLE RUB
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE FRONT WITH DEEP RICH COLOURS. AND NO LOSS THROUGH RUBBING
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PERFECT INNER PANELS
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED DIE CUT INNER IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION, WITH JUST VERY MILD AGEING
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
