THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PICTURE LABEL ON SIDE 'A' IS IMMACULATE. ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAVE NO WEAR OR RUBBING AT ALL
THE FLIP SIDE HAS ALL THE TRACK LISTINGS AND ALSO HAS A BASE WHITE COLOUR THAT IS UNSOILED AND STILL INCREDIBLY WHITE. THERE ARE JUST 2-3 REALLY TINY SPIDER LINES NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM . ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN
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 RECORDED THE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I AM CONVINCED 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 STEREO SPLIT AND REPRODUCTION ON THIS ALBUM IS JUST SUPERB. CLEAR CRISP NOTES AND WELL PRODUCED TO BOOT. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ON ANY PART OF THE PLAYTHROUGH, NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLING. JUST A CRYSTAL CLEAR SOUND
THE LIGHT HANDLING LINES CAUSE RANDOM CLICKS, POPS, AND TICS THROUGH THE PLAY, AND I WOULDN'T NORMALLY LIST AN ALBUM WITH THESE ISSUES, BUT THIS IS SUCH A RARE ALBUM AND IF YOU CAN PUT UP WITH THE ODD LITTLE IRRITANT THEN THE REST OF THE VINYL IS JUST SUBLIME
SO MY ADVICE IS TO TAKE A FULL LISTN TO THIS GREAT ALBUM AND THEN DECIDE IF IT IS FOR YOU
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EXCELLENT PLUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN THOUGH AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
E.J.DAY AND CO UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND AMAZINGLY ONLY TWO SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. IT IS FLAT AND ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND REMAIN UNRUBBED.
THE SLEEVE WAS PRONE TO SEVERE GRUBBINESS DUE TO THE LIGHT PASETL YELLOW BASE COLOUR. THIS ONE HAS LIGHT HANDLING MAINLY TO THE PERIMETER EDGES
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE THE BAREST TOUCH OF VERY LIGHT RUBBING IN A COUPLE OF SPOTS
THE SPINE HAS SUFFERED A LITTLE DAMAGE TO THE TOP SECTION WHERE THE OUTER LAYER OF CARD HAS SPLIT. THIS HASN'T GONE THROUGH TO THE INNER SPINE, AND JUST MEANS THAT YOU CANT READ THE TYPEFACE . FURTHER DOWN THE SPINE IS IN TOP ORDER, NO SQUASHING AND ALL OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS NEAR THE BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE IS IDENTICAL TO THE FRONT WITH JUST A SHADE OF RECORD SHAPE AND A TINY BIT OF RING WEAR AT THE VERY TOP
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A NEAR PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS
THE ORIGINAL PLAIN PAPER INNER IS IN UNSPLIT, LIGHTLY CREASED CONDITION
THE SLEEVE GRADES EXCELLENT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
