THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

BOTH LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE GREEN HARVEST BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND IS UNMARKED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST 5-6 SMALL SPIDER LINES SHOWING THAT THE VINYL HAS HAD JUST A FEW PLAYS

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. BOTH DISCS LOOK IN PERFECT CONDITION IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE NO MORE THAN A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE

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 BOTH ALBUMS FROM START TO FINISH, AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE FOR MY CUSTOMERS

THE LPS PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS SET SOUNDS. 

BEING A PINK FLOYD ALBUM THERE ARE MANY SILENT OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES ACROSS THE SET AND THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT,PLUS THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. 

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE ON ANY PART OF THIS ALBUM, AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF RANDOM SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC ACROSS BOTH VOLUMES

THERE ARE TWO TINY LITTLE TICS AS SIDE TWO STARTS AND THATS ALL I HEARD ACROSS THE FOUR SIDES, AND ON THAT BASIS I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO PERFORMANCE AS MINT MINUS

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, HAVE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS 

THE SLEEVE

FULLY LAMINATED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE  'GIGI'GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS OR DINGS. THERE IS A THUMB PRESSURE BLEMISH IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER WHERE THE LAMINATE HAS LIFTED EVER SO LIGHTLY AT THAT POINT. VERY SMALL AREA 

THERE ARE THREE TINY LAMINATE STRESS LINES AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE NO SHELF WEAR, OR RUBBING AND THE LAMINATE RUNS ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE FOUR SURFACES WITH JUST THE BOTTOM FRONT RIGHT CORNER TIP END HAVING A PIN PRICK OF RUB

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FULLY LAMINATED. NO WEAR OR RUB AND THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE TWO OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP TO SHOW HOW LITTLE THE LP'S HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE OF THIS GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT 

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS THE TWO INNER PANELS, WHICH ARE UMLAMINATED AND IN SUPERB ORIGINAL UNMARKED CONDITION

THE TWO EMI INNER SLEEVES ARE IN THE BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE, BARELY A CREASE LINE BETWEEN THEM, AND NO SPLITS TO ANY OF THE SEAMS, AND VERY VERY WHITE

HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
