THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE JET BLACK LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK ON EITHER SIDE, AND NO COLOUR LOSS. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALSO PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN. THERE ARE JUST 2-3 MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING THAT THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN ON A TURNTABLE MORE THAN A FEW TIMES
THE VINYL
SUPERBLY GLOSSY AS NEW DISC WHICH HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS IMMACULATE AND TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND A FEW ULTRA FINE ANGEL HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES
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 DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE 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
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.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS
THIS FIRST PRESS PERFORMS TO THE HIGHEST STANDARD WITH A REPRODUCTION THAT IS BOTH CLEAR, AND CRISP AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND ONLY THE BAREST OCCASIONAL SPECK OF LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A FEW OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS LP NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH TAKE A FULL LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IN COMPLETELY SUPERB CONDITION. THIS IS THE FIRST ISSUE SLEEVE WITH THE STAPLED BOOKLET WHICH HAS THE STAPLES PRESSED THROUGH THE SPINE. LATER ISSUES HAD A GLUED IN BOOKLET AND NO STAPLES
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. AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE TOTALLY PRISTINE AND SQUARE.
THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG EITHER THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGE, AND NOT ONE THUMB LINE AT ALL EVEN NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY UNWORN , AND RUN FULLY FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP. ANOTHER SIGN THAT THIS HAS BEEN PROPERLY PROTECTED FROM NEW. EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ONLY HAVE A PIN PRICK OF WHITE VISIBLE
THE SPINE IS IMMACULATE. FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECT.NOT ONE JOT OF RUBBING ANYWHERE. THE STAPLES ARE PERFECTLY AND TIGHTLY IN PLACE
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 MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES EVER!!
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS IMPRESSIVE AS THE FRONT. THE SLEEVE HAS THE BRAILLE MESSAGE TO STEVIE WONDER IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS AND A STAPLED BOOKLET ALL IN MINT CONDITION
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT
YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER SLEEVE
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
