    THE RECORD

     

    THE LABELS

    THE  BLUE LABELS ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. 

    THE BASE COLOUR AND BLUE LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS ARE UNRUBBED

    THE VINYL

    THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS SUPERB. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN. 

    IN DAYLIGHT IT IS ABSOLUTELY MINT

    EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS JUST ONE NON SOUNDING SURFACE LINE


    THE TEST PLAY

    THIS EP HAS JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES

    THIS MONO RECORD PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY. 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. 

    MANY MANY 60'S 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 ALUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL HAS NONE OF THAT.

    THE RUN IN IS SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS SILENT

    NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

    NO  CLICKS, OR POPS EITHER, JUST A COUPLESPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC

    PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE OF THE QUALITY OF THIS SUPERB DISC

    I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT 

     

     

     

    THE SLEEVE

    LAMINATED FRONT, NON LAMINATED REAR WITH FLIPBACKS - SINGLE SLEEVE 



    THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, NO MARKS OR STAINS, NO LAMINATE PEEL, FLAKE OR EVEN LIFT

    THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR

    THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE , NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE. NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

     THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE 

    NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AT ALL

    THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FULLY LAMINATED AND HAVE NO DAMAGE OR SCUFFING. ALL FOUR CORNER TIPS ARE PERFECT

    THE SPINE IS ALSO MAGNIFICENT. ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PRISTINE AND UNDAMAGED. EVEN THE  TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE UNWORN. 

    THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP

    THE REAR SURFACE IS UNLAMINATED AND IS STILL WHITE 

    THE FLIPBACKS ARE PRISTINE ON ALL THREE EDGES

    THE IDENTITY TEAR OFF TAG IS STILL ATTACHED TO THE OPENING EDGE

    I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE  MINT 



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