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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY 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.
THIS SUPERB FIRST PRESS PLAYS ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS BOTH CRYSTAL CLEAR AND LOUDLY MIXED
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE JUST THE ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD ONLY IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND ONE OR TWO OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW TINY LITTLE TICS/ POPS DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EX++ FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH
BUT PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
