THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE VERY RICH AND VIBRANT. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN, AND THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLES
ALL 4 SIDES ARE GLEAMING LIKE NEW AND HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE.
IN DAYLIGHT THEY LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS.
EVEN UNDER SPOTLIGHTS MOST COPIES ARE VISIBLY SCRATCHED AND SCUFFED, BUT THIS SET HAS NO MORE THAN A FEW WISPY 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 SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOOVE 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 FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THE RECORDS PLAY WITHOUT DISTORTION
THE DISCS PLAY SUPERBLY, AND I WOULD URGE YOU TO TAKE A LISTEN IN PARTICULAR TO THE QUIET PASSAGES TO HEAR THE CLARITY OF THE SOUND. AND THERE ARE MANY ON ANY YES ALBUM
THE RICH STEREO SOUND IS CRYSTAL CLEAR AND REPRODUCES AS A 1ST PRESS SHOULD
IN ADDITION TO THERE BEING NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE, AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS, THERE IS ALSO NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE EITHER
I SIT NO MORE THAN 12 INCHES FROM MY SPEAKERS AS I TYPE THIS OUT WHILST LISTENING TO THE ALBUM, AND I THEREFORE DETECT EVERY LITTLE NOISE, FAR MORE SO THAT IF I WAS SITTING AT NORMAL LISTENING RANGE
I HEARD ONLY A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE SPECKS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES.
I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD SOUND ANY CLEANER AND I HAVE TO DESCRIBE THE AUDIO REPRODUCTION AS VERY VERY CLOSE TO A MINT GRADE
PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT EXAMPLE OF THIS ICONIC ROGER DEAN GATEFOLD
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN.
THE DEEP RICH COLOURS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THE BRIGHTEST AND CLEANEST I HAVE SEEN ON THIS ALBUM FOR A LONG TIME.
IT HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM NEW, AND SO HAS BEEN PROTECTED FROM ALL OF THE USUAL WEAR
THERE IS ONE SMALL PRESSURE MARK JUST ABOVE THE BOTTOM EDGE
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO PRESSURE LINES AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS THE MOST MINUTE SPECKS OF RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGE
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE COLOUR IS ONCE AGAIN UNFADED, AND ONLY BOTTOM TIP HAS A SPECK OF RUB
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN SUPERB CONDITION
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO MINT CONDITION INNER PANELS
THE TWO DIECUT INNER SLEEVES ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION
THIS SLEEVE GRADES MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
