THE BYRDS - MR. TAMBOURINE MAN
- CAT:CBS S 62571 (STEREO pRESS)
- MATRIX: SBPG 62571-1A-1 / SBPG 62571-1B-1
THE RECORD LABELS
ABSOLUTELY MINT CONDITION ORANGE CBS LABELS. THE ORANGE IS IMMACULATE AND FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOTH SHARP, CLEAN AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS BUT ONE REALLY SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE ON EACH SIDE OF THE LABEL. SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN ON A TURNTABLE.
THE VINYL
ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE GLOSSY BLACK HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL. REMOVING IT FROM THE SLEEVE AND GENTLY AND CAREFULLY EXAMINING THE DISC REVEALS A SPOTLESS SURFACE. THIS VINYL APPEARS EXACTLY HOW A NEW VINYL WOULD HAVE LOOKED BACK WHEN THIS DISC WAS ORIGINALLY PRESSED. NO OBVIOUS HANDLING MARKS OR ANYSIGNS OF ABUSE. IN FACT EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES. THE VINYL IS REALLY SUPERB!
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT HEARING THE ALBUM IS BETTER THAN ALL MY WORDS, AND SO I HAVE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS ME TO RECORD SOUNDBITES FOR YOU TO LISTEN TO
I HAVE RECORDED 4 TRACKS, 2 FROMEACH SIDE, INCLUDING THE RUN IN WAX, AND LINKING GROOVES. THIS SHOULD ALLOW YOU TO MAKE AN INFORMED CHOICE AS WHETHER TO BID OR NOT
I AM CERTAIN YOU WILL AGREE THAT THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS SUPERB VINYL IS OF A COLLECTIBLE NATURE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT MINUS, IT HAS JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED!
THE SLEEVE
THE OVERALL GRADING OF THE SLEEVE IS EXCELLENT PLUS
THE FRONT SURFACE IS BEAUTIFULLY LAMINATED AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE, AND THE BAREST TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE. BEARING IN MIND HOW THIN THIS SLEEVE I9S, I BELIEVE THIS ONE TO HAVE STOOD THE TEAST OF TIME BETTER THAN MOST COPIES YOU WILL SEE.THE LAMINATE REALLY DOES SHINE AND IT LOOKS SUPERB. THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, WHILST THE SPINE IS CLEAN AND LEGIBLE . THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP AND IT IS OBVIOUS JUST BY LOOKING AT THIS THAT THE RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE COVER.
THE REAR SURFACE OF THIS E.J DAY SLEEVE IS UNLAMINATED AND USUALLY FOUND STAINED AND SHOWING HEAVY AGEING. THIS ONE HOWEVER IS EXCEPTIONAL. THE ONLY LIGHT AGING IS IN THE FORM OF SLIVERS OF BROWNING AROUND THE PERIMETER EDGES. THE WHITE ARE IS VERY WHITE AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR PEN ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE.
THE ORIGINAL BOB DYLAN INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. NO SPLITS, AND VERY FLAT AND VIRTUALLY CREASE FREE.
THE LP WILL BE SENT VERY CAREFULLY PACKAGED AND I WILL PLACE THE LP OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION. YOUR NEW PURCHASE WILL ALSO COME HOUSED IN A NEW STIFF PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.
SO ONCE AGAIN THIS IS A VERY VERY HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE ALBUM IN THE MOST SUPERB CONDITION IMAGINABLE, SO BID WITH CONFIDENCE, AND GOOD LUCK IF YOU DECIDE TO GO FOR IT
