THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE  MATT BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES.

THE SILVER LOGO'S AND TYPEFACE WHICH IS OFTEN FOUND RUBBED AWAY IS IN PERFECT CONDITION ON BOTH DISCS, WITH EACH LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE ARE JUST 2-3 TINY VISIBLE SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLES. JUST A FEW VERY CAREFUL PLAYS FROM NEW

TO FIND THIS LP SET IN THIS VIRTUAL UNPLAYED CONDITION IS JUST IMPOSSIBLE THESE DAYS. 

THE VINYL

BOTH VINYLS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THEY GLEAM LIKE THEY WERE JUST PRESSED AND THERE IS NO FOGGING OR ANY MARKS ON EITHER OF THE ALBUMS.THEY LOOK FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT.

EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE NO WIPSY HAIRLINES. NO EVIDENCE OF ANY MARKS WHATSOEVER

THERE IS ONE TINY LIGHT SURFACE LINE ON THE OUTER RIM OF SIDE C. IT'S NON SOUNDING AND THE ONLY MARK ON THE ENTIRE FOUR SIDES

I HOPE YOU AGREE THAT THE REPRODUCTION FROM THIS SET IS JUST BRILLIANT. 

BOTH DISCS PLAY MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. 

TRYING TO FIND A GREAT COPY OF THIS ALBUM IS VERY HARD AS IT WAS A VERY POPULAR LP IN IT'S DAY AND MOST COPIES ARE TRASHED WITH SLEEVES TO MATCH. HERE WE HAVE WHAT I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS A  FAULTLESS PERFORMANCE.

THE FIRST THING TO NOTE IS THAT THE SOUND IS DISTORTION FREE APART FROM THE GUITAR WORK THAT SHOULD SOUND DISTORTED OF COURSE. 

THIS SHOWS THAT THE LP'S WERE PLAYED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY TRACKED STYLUS, AND ONE THAT WASN'T DAMAGED EITHER.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER

YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS RECORD TO TRULY APPRECIATE ITS GLORY

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER

NO POPS OR TICS AND NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF EXTREMELY LOW LEVEL SPECKS OF STATIC IN A LINKING GROOVE OR TWO

THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE SET OF DISCS THAT PERFORM TO THE MOST MAGINFICENT STATE

IT IS A PERFOMANCE THAT I AM DELIGHTED TO CALL AS CLOSE TO MINT AS POSSIBLE FOR A 52 YEAR OLD ALBUM

THE SLEEVE

  TO MATCH THE SUBLIME RECORDS WE HAVE A SLEEVE THAT IS WITHOUT QUESTION, THE BEST EXAMPLE I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS

ALSO AS CLOSE TO MINT AS POSSIBLE

SUPERB E.J DAY AND CO LAMINATED GATEFOLD

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND JUST GLEAMS LIKE A MIRROR. 

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, NO CREASE LINES, NO BENDS, AND ABSOLUTELY NO RING WEAR OR EVEN MILD RECORD SHAPE. .

THERE ARE NONE!!  YES, NOT ONE LAMINATE PRESSURE LINE BY THE SPINE

NONE EITHER ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES

AND JUST ONE LIGHT AND SMALL STRESS LINE BY THE PICTURE OF JIMI

SOMETHING ELSE THAT YOU JUST DON'T SEE  IS THAT THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECTLY SQUARE

NO RUBBING TO ANY OT THE CORNER TIPS

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND THIS IS DUE TO THE SLEEVE RESIDING INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SINCE THE DAY OF RELEASE. THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT ALL THE WAY ACROSS BOTH SURFACES . ALL EIGHT CORNER TIPS ARE PRISTINE

THE SPINE IS  PERFECT. ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECTLY INTACT. THERE IS NO SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND NO LAMINATE PEEL OR FLAKE. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED

THE TWO OPENING EDGES ARE AS SHARP AS THEY POSSIBLE COULD BE,. THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN CLEARLY HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE WHEN REMOVING THE RECORDS FROM THE SLEEVE.

THE REAR SURFACE IS VIRTUALLY AS MAGNIFICENT AS THE FRONT WITH TWO REALLY SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES CLOSE TO THE OPENING EDGE. 

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A FULLY LAMINATED AND GLOSSY PAIR OF PANELS WHICH ARE AS IMMACULATE AS THE REST OF THIS SLEEVE.WITH JUST TWO LAMINATE STRESS LINES ON THE BOTTOM SECTION ACROSS THE TOP AND BOTTOM RIGHT SICES

THE BLUE TEXT IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND THE LARGE PHOTOS ARE JUST PERFECT AND TOTALLY UNBLEMISHED

THE TWO POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES ARE FREE FROM SPLITS. A COUPLE OF CORNER CREASES AND SOME LIGHT AGEING

A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE OF THIS CLASSIC SLEEVE AND LIKE THE VINYL IT GRADES AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO 

AN INCREDIBLE FINAL UPGRADE COPY IN THE MOST AMAZING CONDITION
