THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGE AND YELLOW ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE IS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE AND EVEN USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS I CANNOT SEE ANY MORE, AND THERE IS STILL SHARDS OF RESIDUE VINYL INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLES.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM . IN DAY LIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON THIS SPARKLING VINYL,AND IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, APART FROM A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES
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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, IN THE FIRM BELIEF THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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
INCREDIBLE!!! THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO DESCRIBE THE REPRODUCTION. SO MANY SILENT PASSAGES THAT PERFORM TO THE HIGHEST GRADE POSSIBLE
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO LIGHT STATIC EITHER
PERHAPS A COUPLE OF BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT!!!!
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
I AM CERTAIN THIS SET COULD NOT BE BETTERED!!!
THE SLEEVE
ORIGINAL SHOREWOOD UNLAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE.
THIS SLEEVE HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER ALMOST FROM NEW!!
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.THE DELICATE BROWN SURFACE IS UNRUBBED, AND THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES
THERE ARE THREE SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE EITHER AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
NO RING WEAR AND NO RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE DOES SHOW A LITTLE RUBBING WITH SOME SMALL PATCHES OF BROWN SURFACE WORN. THE BOTTOM EDGE HOWEVER IS TOTALLY MINT AND UNRUBBED
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED, APART FROM ONE FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION AT THE TOP WHERE THERE IS ALSO A SMALL SCUFF TO THE SURFACE. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ENDS ALSO HAVE A SPECK OF RUBBING. THE REST OF THE SPINE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR THERE AND IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION WITH PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND AS NEW, AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THE LP HAS REMAINED UNPLAYED FOR ALL OF THESE YEARS. JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS TO THE FRONT EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN UNBLEMISHED CONDITION, AND AGAIN THIS USUALLY SUFFERS FROM RING WEAR, BUT HERE THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY LINES NEAR THE SPINE
THE LYRIC INSERT IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION AND HAS NO STAINS OR MARKS TO THE WHITE SURFACE
THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION HAVING REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE FOR 31 YEARS. THEY ARE TOTALLY WHITE AND UNSPLIT JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT CORNER CREASE LINES
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
