Description
I have been a music fan and vinyl enthusiast since the early 1970s and I am selling a large range of records covering a very wide variety of musical styles. They are all authentic original pressings, featuring quality music, mostly from the 1970s and 1980s.
They have all been very well cared for, though I will give an honest appraisal of their condition and will put up plenty of photos of the actual records for sale so you can see exactly what you are bidding on. I endeavour to highlight anything in the description which I would want to be made aware of before deciding to place a bid. I am very aware that, as a distance buyer, you are entrusting in the honesty of the item descriptions and I always aim to describe the items truthfully and thoroughly.
All these records are deep cleaned using a professionally constructed wet vacuum system using only the highest purity record cleaning fluids so the vinyl is all very clean, glossy and dust free. Everything listed is, at the very least, very thoroughly test played, (minimum of at least 4-5 tracks across both sides) though almost always played right through on a very good quality deck and I apply high standards to my vinyl and would never list a record that I would not be perfectly happy to have in my own cherished record collection. In the case of rare or particularly interesting vinyls, I may list records which may fall short in some way of my usual standards, but this would always be very clearly highlighted in the descriptions.
I visually inspect every record under very bright light using an inspection lamp.
A note regarding the most important matter of all - the audio - as with all vinyl, even straight out of the cellophane, there can be light crackle or very light 'pops' during the quiet passages. I have listened carefully, at the very least in part, to all these records, so I will highlight in the descriptions any aspects of the audio playback which I consider to be outside the parameters of the very high standards I apply to my own listening. Please be assured that I would never sell 'fried breakfasts', only high quality records.
All records will be supplied to you in a good quality clear outer wallet to protect the sleeve.
**** SPECIFIC DETAILS ABOUT THIS RECORD FOR SALE - PLEASE READ ****
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul Simon - 'Graceland' - original 1986 vinyl album in excellent condition. The matrix reads 925447 A3 / B3 with the stamp of the renowned Alsdorf pressing plant stamped to the run out.
The vinyl is in pretty immaculate condition and retains all of its original glossy sheen with only the very lightest of wispy superficial hairlines, if any at all, visible in bright light and I have played this album through and playback is excellent. I am listening to the album as I type this, currently my favourite track, and indeed one of my favourite tracks of all time, 'I Know What I Know' and the audio is superb, really crisp and clear and delivering all of that richness and depth characteristic of the music produced from the source of high quality well cared for vinyl.
The sleeve is in excellent condition with lovely sharp and square edges and spine and presents really well in its brand new high quality clear protective outer jacket.
The thin paper lyric inner is in excellent condition, though the vinyl is now housed in a brand new high quality poly-lined inner sleeve for safekeeping and to conserve the original.
Please take a look at the photos which are of the actual record for sale and are an accurate reflection of this album's excellent all round condition.
This record in a nutshell : simply one of the all-time greatest rock albums ever recorded and you'd have to go a long way to find as lovely looking and sounding a copy as this one. The packaging is in great shape and the immaculate vinyl delivers a lovely crystal clear sound and this album would make a very worthy addition to anyone's playing rock vinyl collection.
I also have a lovely copy of Rhythm of the Saints for sale, and would be very happy to do a deal on the 2 records if you are interested in both of them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The records will be sent to you very thoroughly packaged in high quality heavy duty cardboard mailers with card stiffeners.
I am always very happy to combine postage.
I will be listing lots of other very varied high quality records over the coming days and weeks and I have other listings currently running so please check out my other items for sale and thank you for looking.
