THE GRAHAM COLLIER SEPTET. DEEP DARK BLUE CENTRE. 1967 1ST PRESS MONO DERAM DML 1005. XARL-7784-1A/XARL-7785-1A MATRICES. VINYL PLAYS EXCELLENT.
This is my MO: before listing I always clean LPs on a vacuum record cleaning machine and I always determine audio quality by playing the LP not just by visual inspection.
This is my listening equipment: highly revealing Yamaha PF-800 turntable (easily equal to an LP12), pre/power amps and B&W Matrix Reference speakers. For this LP I have used an Ortofon OM10 MM cartridge.
I grade this LP Excellent with just some very minor background noise to the run-in grooves, between tracks and occasional quiet parts. About one minute into track one on side one there is a split second of high pitched distortion through one speaker during a loud, sharp horn blast. This could be my stylus, my speakers or the record itself, but it’s over in less than a second and only mentioned for accuracy. Towards the end of track two there is a quiet passage of guitar and during this passage there is some background noise (like a low studio analogue tape hiss) which I believe to be on the mastertape itself because it ends the instant the track stops. Again, this is only mentioned for accuracy.
The single slip, front laminated cover is in generally very good condition. There is some creasing to the laminate on the front top left and bottom right corners (see close-up photos). There is a small (1cm) tear to the opening edge towards the top (see close-up photo) – this has been repaired with tape on the inside of the cover to stop the tear progressing. There is a little rubbing to the corners (see photos). The spine is fine (see photo) and the back is clean with just the odd mark. The vinyl is in beautiful glossy condition and the labels are excellent with few visible spindle marks.
An excellent example of this sixties UK jazz classic.
