IN SUPERB CONDITION-MINT MINUS AUDIO
NEAR MINT SLEEVE
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE PINK RIM ISLAND LABELS ARE IN NICE CONDITION, THE COLOURS ARE UNRUBBED AND PERFECT APART FROM A LITTLE SCUFFING TO THE PINK RING
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED.
THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE AND BARELY VISIBLE SPIDER LINE BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN, AND LOOKS MAGNIFICENT. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS NEAR FLAWLESS AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT ONLY SHOWS ONE SMALL NON SOUNDING MARK ON SIDE ONE
THE TEST PLAY
THE QUALITY OF THE RECORDING IS INCREDIBLE, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CLEARLY. THE PRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT NOR ARE THERE ANY LOUD CLICKS
VINYL NOISE IS NON EXISTANT. SILENT LINKING GROOVES
A VERY CLEAN AND CLEAR SOUNDING 1ST PRESS OF THIS OUTSTANDING ALBUM
NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF VERY TINY TICS OR POPS
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
BUT PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
