Description

FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.com ROBIN GIBB - ROBIN'S REIGN

1970 UK 1ST PRESS

INCREDIBLE  MINT MINUS AUDIO ALL THE WAY THROUGH

OUTSTANDING NEAR MINT SLEEVE 

 

THE LABELS

THE RED LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. 

THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UN-RUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE A FEW SMALLSPIDER LINES AGAINST THE SPINDLE HOLE

 

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES, AND IN DAYLIGHT THIS HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TOA MAGNIFYING LED HALO, THE RECORD ONLY SHOWS A COUPLE OF BARELY VISIBLE WISPY HAIRLINES

THE TEST PLAY

THIS VINYL PLAYS EVERY BIT AS SUPERBLY AS IT LOOKS. FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS STEREO SOUND IN EVERY WAY.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, OR LOUD CLICKS OR SMALL ONES FOR THAT MATTER

CERTAINLY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS WAS INTENDED

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF STATIC AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT  
NO TICS OR POPS 

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO  MINT MINUS

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

 

THE SLEEVE

 

FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE DEEP RICH COLOURS  ARE STILL IN THE BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE. NO COLOUR FADE WHATSOEVER

THE LAMINATE IS EXTREMELY GLOSSY AND ONLY HAS A LITTLE LIFT ALONG THE SPINE

NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND  THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE STILL SHARP AND SQUARE  

THE TOP EDGE HAS PERFECT LAMINATE. THERE IS A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS PRITINE ALL THE WAY ACROSS

THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND UN-SQUASHED, AND THE SURFACE IS SMOOTH AND UNDAMAGED. NO RUB TO THE TOP OR BOTTOM TIPS OR ANYWHERE ELSE. THE ENDS ARE TAPERED

THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP 

THE REAR SURFACE IS AS DEEPLY COLOURED AS THE FRONT. HAS THE SAME SLIVER OF LIFT ON THE SPINE


THE CORRECT POLY INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED

I AM REALLY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

 

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