Made in Heaven A2/B2 (Original Limited Edition 1995 release)

This is the now rare original limited edition cream vinyl LP of Made In Heaven released in the UK in 1995.  The previous owner never played the vinyl and I have only listened to it in order to grade and it does not disappoint!  Without doubt the best I have ever heard.

Visual grading

   The vinyl is in absolutely stunning condition and under a bright light I cannot detect any hairlines or scratches at all and obviously has no spindle wear.  Visually Mint as is the audio as described below.

Play grading

'It's a Beautiful Day' has no lead in static which is hardly surprising for brand new vinyl!  The remainder of Side One plays with a clarity and depth that is first class.  The quality is quite simply astounding.  There is complete silence between each track and plays so clearly and loudly through my speakers.  Audio simply doesn't get better than this!  It goes without saying that the side plays without any crackle, skips or jumps.    

'I Was Born To Love You' starts Side Two with just a touch of very quiet lead in static.  It then plays with perfect audio.  Again there is complete silence between tracks and 'Too Much Love Will Kill You' is stunning, quite possibly the best I have ever heard.  I very rarely grade as Mint if the record is unsealed but this is as close to Mint as you will find and is a final upgrade copy if ever there was one.  Any die-hard Queen fan would be exceptionally pleased with this package.

Gatefold cover

The gatefold would be classed as Mint but for a crease that is more noticeable on the back cover and was probably caused by being bent slightly at some point.  It doesn't really detract on what is a lovely gatefold, perfectly clean in every other way.  The edges and spine have no wear and the inside of the gatefold is also in superlative condition.

Lyric inner & Posters

The lyric inner is as new and has no creasing.  The three posters are also in superb condition, again as new.  Also included is the small flyer advertising their releases.
