THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK ON EITHER SIDE, AND NO COLOUR LOSS.THE PARLOPHONE SIDE HAS A PERFECT DARK BASE COLOUR THAT FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WITH THE GOLD LETTERING BEING PRISTINE, UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE WHITE SIDE IS VERY WHITE, AGAIN WITH PERFECT TYPEFACE

THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE ON EITHER SIDE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

SUPERBLY GLOSSY AS NEW DISC WHICH HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND LOOK FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES

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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW CRISP AND CLEAN THE DISC SOUNDS. 

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD HOW IT WAS INTENDED.

IN MY OPINION THIS ALBUM HAS ONE OF THE BEST AND CLEANEST AND LOUDEST REPRODUCTIONS OF ALL MCCARTNEY VOLUMES. A TRULY AWESOME SOUND!!!

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND, NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A TRACE OF STATIC IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES MAINLY ON SIDE ONE,

I HEARD NO MORE THAN 2-3 TINY DUST POPS  THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS LP MINT MINUS!!!

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IN COMPLETELY SUPERB CONDITION.

THIS HAS CLEARLY BEEN HOUSED IN A PLASTIC OUTER FROM NEW. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN. THERE HAS BEEN NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER, AND THUS THERE IS NO COLOUR LOSS. THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES OR BENDS OR RINGWEAR.

JUST ONE MINUSCULE LINE  CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY UNWORN , ANOTHER SIGN THAT THIS HAS BEEN PROPERLY PROTECTED FROM NEW. COLOUR RUNNING UNINTERRUPTED FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED

THE SPINE IS IMMACULATE. FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT.NO COLOUR LOSS AND EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE UNRUBBED

THE OPENING EDGE ONCE AGAIN IS ' AS NEW' RAZOR SHARP, AND IT'S CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS JUST NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM THIS SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS AS PRISTINE AS THE FRONT IN EVERY WAY. IN FACT EVEN BETTER BECAUSE THE SMALL LINE NEAR THE SPINE DOESN'T APPEAR ON THE REAR.

THE MANUFACTURERS PROPERTY NOT FOR SALE STICKER IS PERFECTLY ADHERED TO THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THE LYRIC CARD INNER SLEEVE WITH THE ROUNDED CORNERS, AND LARGE THUMB NOTCH, IS IN MINT CONDITION. PERFECTLY FLAT, NO CREASES, AND NO SEAM SPLITS
