THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN TOP CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPE FACE IS IN PRISTINE UNRUBBED CONDITION. THERE ARE 8-10 SMALL SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS SUPERB WHEN EXAMINED IN DAYLIGHT

EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY SOME WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES AND A FEW SMALL FINE HANDLING LINES

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 NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME 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

I RECORDED IT IN MONO SO THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO LISTEN TO IT AS WAS INTENDED

THIS MONO ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION. THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE  REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE. 

THE EARLY MONO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE. MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL HAS NONE

GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE ALL YOU HEAR IS SILENCE. NO HEAVY CRACKLES ANYWHERE, AND THIS INCREDIBLE STANDARD IS MAINTAINED ALL THROUGH BOTH SIDES. I CANNOT SAY THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD A COPY OF THIS ALBUM IN SUCH MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL CONDITION. EVEN THE VERY VULNERABLE 'MICHELLE' WHICH HISTORICALLY HAS HEAVY VINYL NOISE IS VIRTUALLY FREE FROM ANY EXCEPT FOR SOME VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE STUFF ON OCCASION

NO LOUD POPS AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. JUST THE OCCASIONAL SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE STUFF

NO CLICKS AND JUST A FEW BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE!

I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO !!!!!!!

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A GLOSSY LAMINATE THAT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. .

VERY CLEAN AND SHARP GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SINGLE SLEEVE

THERE ARE JUST FOUR SMALL LAMINATE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. THREE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, EIGHT ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND FOUR SMALL THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE ALL THE LAMINATE RUNNING ACROSS THE SURFACES WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP ANDS, AND A SMALL SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION.  THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED EVEN THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE 100% UNRUBBED.

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE

THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE ALSO IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, AND INCREDIBLY NO RING WEAR, AND  NOT EVEN ANY SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I ANGLE IT INTO A STRONG LIGHT

THE WHITE POROUS SURFACE IS STILL INCREDIBLY WHITE WITH  JUST THE BAREST SHADOW OF HANDLING NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE FLIP BACKS ARE PERFECTLY ADHERED WITH THE BOTTOM ONE JUST HAVING A LITTLE BIT OF PICKING TO THE RIGHT CORNER AREA

THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN MINT MINUS CONDITION.BARELY A WRINKLE AND TOTALLY WHITE AND UNSPLIT, SHOWING JUST WHY THIS ALBUM IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!!  


 

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
