THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PASTEL COLOURED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN. SO IS THE BLACK TYPEFACE. THE SPINDLE HOLE IS ALSO UNWORN, THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE ON THE LABEL, SHOWING JUST WHY THIS ALBUM HAS REMAINED UNPLAYED FOR ALL THESE YEARS. THERE IS STILL SHARDS OF RESIDUAL VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT THIS LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS. AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO BE SEEN, NOT EVEN THE USUAL WISPY HAIRLINES. JUST A COUPLE OF ANGEL HAIRLINE 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 ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS IN THE FIRM BELIEF 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 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 SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND OF COURSE ON ANY YES ALBUM THERE ARE MANY SILENT PASSAGES.
THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY, WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
NOT ONE SPECK OF BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND, EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES, AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE
I AM CERTAIN THAT I DIDN'T HEAR ANY MORE THAN ONE TINY DUST POP THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
YOU WILL NEVER GET A BETTER COPY OF THIS EVER!!
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT!!!
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED AND DELICATE SINGLE SLEEVE . THIS IS SUCH A HARD SLEEVE TO FIND IN THIS SORT OF CONDITION. THE FACT THAT IT IS UNLAMINATED USUALLY ASSURES SEVERE COLOUR LOSS TO THE DELICATE POWDERY SURFACE.
THE ONLY WAY TO ENSURE THAT THIS COULD NOT HAPPEN WAS TO PROTECT IT FROM DAY ONE INSIDE A PLASTIC SLEEVE (AND LEAVE IT THERE). I AM DELIGHTED TO SAY THAT THE LP'S ORIGINAL OWNER HAD THE FORESIGHT TO DO JUST THAT. AND HERE WE HAVE WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS A PERFECT SLEEVE.
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY CLEAN. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE. THE PASTEL COLOURED SURFACE IS TOTALLY UNBLEMISHED, UNRUBBED AND JUST PRISTINE.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE, AND NOT EVEN A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE, JUST A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF IMPRESSION UNDER THE TOP EDGE
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO LINES CLOSE THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE EITHER. ALSO NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN A BETTER EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. THE LIGHT GREEN SURFACE RUNS FULLY FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNRUBBED
THE SPINE ITSELF IS JUST IMMACULATE. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, WITH EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE PRISTINE AND UNBLEMISHED
THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST AS NEW!! RAZOR SHARP AND LOOKING AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRINTED AND PUT TOGETHER. FURTHER PROOF THAT THE RECORD HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE.NOT EVEN A THUMB NAIL NICK ANYWHERE ALONG IT
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION THAT ANY COLLECTOR TO COULD WISH TO HOPE FOR
THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT ,UNSPLIT AND UNCREASED
A REAL TREAT TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT !!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
