The Records Looks EX and play Both sides in EX condition
Nice  very shiny and clean vinyl on both sides, play through well with no problems.... audiophile quality crystal clear audio from the lovely conditioned record

I have just realized that the record dosn't sit completely flat on the deck it has a slight half record warp it effects side 2 but is barely noticeable on side 1 can honestly say that it dosnt effect play in any way..my stylus tracks at 1.5grams and the record plays through beautifully both sides..it is a gradually rising and falling that covers over half a revolution

The the laminated flipback Cover is in EX conditions
the garrod & lofthouse half laminated cover shows very little age related wear and has been really well cared for, nice strong spine, clear images, no edge wear (see photos) light staining to a small area on the unlaminated back cover
The labels on both sides are clean and shiny
No Evident Spindle wear
this is a really well looked after copy of the Album with clear audio and a great cover

A word about myself

I am a record collector specializing in 1960’s and 70’s. Rock, psychedelia,Folk Rock, Avante garde, and krautRock.

My Hifi consists of A Linn Axis turntable fitted with a Linn Basik plus tone arm  with an Ortofon 520mk 11 cartridge, I listen to my records through a pair of Rogers LS7’s.

I listen to all the records I sell on this setup, and most records I sell are from my own collection, I wouldn’t sell anything that I wouldn’t be happy to own my self or play on my Hifi, I don’t own or sell crackly or knackered records, I am aware the Audiophile quality stylus are very expensive and no one wants to chip a stylus by playing knackered records.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

I Use the Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

Please note I will use + and – to denote grades in-between the ones mentioned below.

I grade the cover,labels and record separately

"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I provide every record I sell over £10.00 with an inner antistatic sleeve and an outer plastic sleeve to keep your albums in great condition

 Please note: I only use quality record mailers with two cardboard inserts

The flash photo just dosnt do justice to how shiny and clean the vinyl is the flash has picked up every barely seeable scuffs and hairline from where the record has been removed from the cover lots of times
