THE RAMONES
ROCKET TO RUSSIA LP
SIRE (SR 6042)
1977 (THIS ISSUE LATE 70s/EARLY 80s)
STRAWBERRY ETCHED IN RUN OUT
SLEEVE CONDITION: EX
EDGES TOP & BOTTOM: NO SPLITS OR TEARS. NO OBVIOUS RUBBING TO EITHER TOP OR BOTTOM. VERY NICE.
SPINE: JUST A COUPLE OF TINY MARKS AND NOTHING ELSE. NO COMPRESSION. NO WEAR AT ENDS. PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
FRONT: APART FROM A COUPLE OF TINY EDGE CREASES THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. NO CREASES ANYWHERE AND NO RINGWEAR. NO SPLITS, RIPS, WRITING OR TEARS. NO DISCOLOURATION ON THE WHITE AREAS. IN VERY NICE CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE.
REAR: VERY SIMILAR TO THE FRONT WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY EDGE CREASES AND A COUPLE OF LITTLE 'PRESSURE' LINES. NO RINGWEAR AND NO SPLITS, RIPS, WRITING OR TEARS. OPENING EDGE IS STRAIGHT WITH JUST ONE LITTLE 'DENT' NEAR THE TOP EDGE. VERY NICE CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE.
INNER SLEEVE: AGAIN, NOTHING REALLY TO FAULT. NO SPLITS, RIPS, TEARS OR WRITING AND NO DISCOLOURATION. NO RINGWEAR AND JUST THE TINIEST HINT OF A CREASE HERE AND THERE. OVERALL IN LOVELY CONDITION.
RECORD CONDITION:
VISUALLY THE RECORD IS EX++ DISPLAYING JUST A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST, NEAR INVISIBLE MARKS. MOST PEOPLE WOULD GRADE THIS AS MINT. NO SCRATCHES, RUB MARKS OR SURFACE MARKS TO BE SEEN. EVEN IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT THERE ARE BARELY ANY SLEEVE REMOVAL TYPE HAIRLINES. IT'S FAIRLY OBVIOUS THAT THIS RECORD HASN'T BEEN PLAYED A GREAT DEAL. THIS IS A GERMAN PRESSING WHICH HAS THE 2nd PRESS CATALOGUE NUMBER (SR 6042)
BOTH LABELS ARE EXCELLENT WITH NO SPINDLE MARKS ON EITHER SIDE. NO STICKERS, WRITING OR OTHER UNWANTED MARKS.
PLAYBACK IS A SUPERB EXCELLENT (OR BETTER) WITH NOTHING TO SPOIL THE SOUNDTRACK. BACKGROUND NOISE IS VIRTUALLY NON EXISTANT AND THERE IS NO SURFACE NOISE BETWEEN TRACKS, MAYBE JUST THE VERY OCCASIONAL TINY STATIC TYPE TICK. ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES OR OTHER AUDIBLE MARKS AT ALL. PLAYS THROUGH BEAUTIFULLY WITH CLEAR DISTORTION FREE SOUND.
DIFFICULT TO FIND DECENT COPIES OF EARLY NEW WAVE/PUNK LPs SO THIS ONE IS A REAL GEM.
A GREAT UPGRADE COPY
POSTAGE WILL BE SIGNED FOR WITH TRACKING
