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 AM DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED 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 FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY THROUGH. NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
THIS DISC PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH. WITHOUT ANY SEVERE BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE ODD SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC,HEARD ONLY IN A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES AND I HEARD NO MORE THAN TWO TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT MINUS!!
PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL HEAVY CARDED GOTHIC PRINT SINGLE SLEEVE
THE SLEEVE IS STILL HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL SHRINKWRAP JUST SPLIT AT THE OPENING EDGE TO ALLOW THE VINYL TO BE REMOVED
THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE UNLAMINATED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT. THIS SLEEVE IS PRONE TO RINGWEAR AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE FRONT AND REAR SURFACES, BUT THIS SLEEVE HAS REMAINED PRISTINE
THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE , AND INCREDIBLY NOT EVEN ANY OF THE TINY ONES THAT YOU WOULD USUALLY EXPECT TO SEE NEAR THE SPINE.NONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER
ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE ALL OF THE EASILY RUBBED COLOUR RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP, WITH JUST THE VERY TIP ENDS OF THE TWO RIGHT CORNERS LIGHTLY RUBBED
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED. AGAIN FREE FROM ANY COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. EVEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE PRISTINE
THE REAR SURFACE IS AGAIN IN SUPERB CONDITION WITH NO SIGNS OR COLOUR LOSS OR CREASES. INCREDIBLY ONCE AGAIN NO LINES WHATSOEVER, NOT EVEN NEAR THE SPINE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST A LITTLE BURRING AT THE BOTTOM HALF
THE ORIGINAL PICTURE CARD INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB UNSPLIT AND UNCREASED CONDITION. NO RUBBING OR RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS GREAT COVER MINT !!!!
IT IS THAT GOOD
A REAL VAULT COPY OF THIS LP SET
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
