THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS AND THE BLACK BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE ZERO SPIDER LINES NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE.
THE VINYL
ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE DISC.NOT A FINGERMARK ANYWHERE, AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES
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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE 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
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CLEARLY AND CLEANLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED, AND THIS IS AN EXTREMELY LOUD CUT
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE EITHER, NOR ANY LOUD CLICKS
THIS VINYL AND MY OTHER COPY BOTH HAVE A LITTLE EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT THE START OF SIDE TWO, AND A LITTLE EMBBEDED STATIC IN SOME RANDOM SPOTS. NOT A PARTICULARLY WELL PRESSED ALBUM
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH, JUST A FEW TINY STATIC TICS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH Near Mint
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
STUNNING GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND CLEAN. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE COLOUR AND THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, OR BENDS . A PERFECT EXAMPLE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH IMMACULATE WITH ALL OF THE EASILY RUBBED SURFACE PERFECTLY INTACT THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNRUBBED.
THE SPINE IS MINT, FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. PERFECT COLOURS AND NO SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER.
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
