THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGY RED LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION , RICH AND VIBRANT BASE COLOUR THAT FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. IN FACT ON SIDE TWO THERE IS STILL SHARDS OF RESIDUE VINYL SURROUNDING THE SPINDLE HOLE TO SHOW JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN ON A TRUNTABLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY UNRUBBED AND LEGIBLE, AND FINALLY THERE ARE NO MORE THAN ONE TINY SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE, AGAIN SHOWING THAT THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED.IT IS AMAZING THAT SUCH A POPULAR ALBUM SHOULD HAVE JUST NOT BEEN ON A TURNTABLE MORE THAN A ONCE. THERE IS A LIGHT SURFACE MARK ON SIDE TWO WHICH I PROMISE DOESN'T SOUND, AND IT LOOKS AS THOUGH IT IS IN THE PRESS
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 WHOLE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH INCLUDING THE RUN IN'S, RUN OUT'S AND THE LINKING GROOVES AS I WISH TO DEMONSTRATE NOT ONLY THE ABSOLUTE CLARITY OF THE RECORDING, BUT THE SILENCE IN THE BITS THAT SHOULD BE SILENT. PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD CLEARLY AND WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND NOISE. I HEARD 2-3 SMALL DUST POPS DURING THE FIRST TRACK BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT PLAYS TO PERFECTION!!
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
SUPERB LAMINATED HOWARDS GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE STILL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND IS FLAT AND CLEAN. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, JUST 5 SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE AND TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. THE ORIGINAL STICKER IS STILL PERFECTLY IN PLACE IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND THERE IS NO LAMINATE PEEL OR FLAKE, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE RED TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITON, JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT LINES ACCROSS THE CORNERS
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE UNLAMINATED PANELS SHOWING IMAGES FROM THE FILM
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN UNSPLIT UNCREASED ORIGINAL CONDIITON
A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE AND I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE IT NEAR MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
