AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE LP IN MAGNIFICENT BARELY PLAYED CONDITION. THE REPRODUCTION IS REALLY MAGNIFICENT AND I URGE YOU TO TAKE A LISTEN TO THE 4 SOUNDBITES. THIS 1968 STEREO PRESSING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO UPGRADE FROM.
THIS IS THE BAND'S SECOND ALBUM FROM 1968
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE RED AND WHITE DERAM LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE RED IS RICH AND VIBRANT, WHILST THE WHITE IS GLEAMING AND PURE WHITE AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THERE ARE JUST TWO SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. YOU CAN TELL THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED JUST BY LOOKING AT HOW THE RECORD STILL GLEAMS. THERE ARE NO MARKS ON THE SURFACE EITHER, AND ONLY WHEN OFFERED UP TO THE SPOTLIGHT ARE THERE A COUPLE OF WISPY LINES TO BE SEEN
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 FOUR THREE-FIVE MINUTE EXCERPTS FROM THIS ALBUM, I HAVE RECORDED THE FIRST TRACK FROM EACH SIDE WHICH INCLUDES THE DEAD WAX RUN IN, I HAVE ALSO RECORDED THE LINKING GROOVES TO THE START OF THE OTHER TRACKS THAT ON OFFER. THE CLARITY IS AS I PREVIOUSLY SAID SUPERB. CLEAR AS A BELL AND HAS A GREAT STEREO SPLIT. THE RECORDINGS SHOULD DEMONSTRATE THIS CLARITY AS WELL AS HIGHLIGHTING THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO BACKGROUND NOISES, AND THE QUITE PASSAGES REMAIN QUIET.
HAVING FULLY PLAYED THIS SUPERB VINYL I CAN CONFIRM THAT THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING WHATSOEVER, IN FACT NOT EVEN ANY VINYL NOISE WHICH IS PRETTY RARE ON DERAM PRESSINGS. I CAN HONESTLY SAY I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY SMALL DUST POPS EITHER, PERHAPS THE ODD SECOND OR TWO OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF SPOTS, BUT THERE ARE SO MANY QUITERE PASSAGES OF MUSIC ON THIS LP THAT ANY UNWANTED NOISE WOULD HAVE BEEN DETECTED EASILY.
TAKE A LISTEN TO THE 4TH SOUNDBITE WHERE RIGHT AT THE END THE DRUM SOLO GOES DEATHLY QUIET, AND YET THERE IS JUST NO BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER, THIS IS A TRUE REPRESENTATION OF THE ENTIRE ALBUM, JUST MAGNIFICENT!!!
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT !!!
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE
THE FRONT SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE NEW AS THE LAMINATE IS HIGHLY POLISHED. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS OR DINGS. THERE ARE JUST3-4 REALLY TINY LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE AND 2-3 ALONG THE TOP EDGE. THERE IS NO LAMINATE PEEEL, FLAKE OR LIFT ANYWHWERE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER
THE SPINE HAS THE TWO TAPERED ENDS AND ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, THERE IS SOME LIGHT SQUASHING TO THE MIDDLE SECTION.
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION, BEING UNLAMINATED AND WHITE IS IS PRONE TO SERIOUS GRUBBINESS, BUT THIS ONE IS NEAR PERFECT WITH JUST VERY VERY LIGHT TRACES OF HANDLING TO THE VERY PERIMETER EDGES. THERE IS ALSO THREE LETTERS CLT THAT HAVE BEEN PENNED NEATLY JUST UNDER THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS CLEARLY WHY THIS LP HAS 'JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED'
THE BLUE AND WHITE STEREO INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN THE SAME TOP CONDITION. UNSPLIT SEAMS ANS BARELY A CREASE LINE ON IT, JUST SOME LIGHT AGING TO THE GLUED EDGES
I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS INCREDIBLE VINYL AND SLEEVE WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
