THE RECORD

 

THE LABELS

THE BROWN AND YELLOW SUN LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE PALE YELLOW BASE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED , AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE, ALTHOUGH THERE IS A SMALL RED CIRCLE STAMPED ONTO THE B SIDE

THE BROWN TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED.IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS ON BOTH SIDES, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER  INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MUCH TO SEE. THE GLEAMING SURFACE HAS ONLY A FEW OF THE FINEST WISPY HAIRLINES AND A FEW LIGHT HANDLING LINES

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 WHOLE SINGLE FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE SINGLE BEFORE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE SINGLE PLAYS JUST SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES

THE FIRST THING YOU WILL HEAR IS THE ABSOLUTE CRYSTAL CLEAR VOCALS AND MUSIC. IT IS 100% CERTAIN THAT THIS SINGLE HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED ON ANY SYSTEM THAT HAD A HEAVY OR WORN STYLUS BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT THROUGH THE PLAY

THE CLARITY OF THE RECORDING IS ONLY MARRED SLIGHTLY BY SOME LIGHT BACKGROUND HEARD WELL BEHIND THE MUSIC

 

A FEW TICS AND POPS DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS EXCELLENT

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

THE PLAIN BROWN COMPANY SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION.

 

FIRSTLY THERE ARE NO SPLITS TO THE SEAMS

SECONDLY NO RIPS TO THE DIE CUT HOLE

AND THIRDLY NO DAMAGE TO THE TOP OPENING EDGE, WHICH EVEN HAS THE SMALL THUMB NOTCH IN PERFECT CONDITION

 

THERE IS SOME LIGHT RECORD IMPRESSION AND A NAME WRITTEN IN PENCIL

THIS SLEEVE ONLY HAS VERY VERY LIGHT CREASE LINES ACROSS THE CORNERS

 

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT

GARRY
