I HAVE ACQUIRED A COLLECTION OF STUNNING VINYLS THAT BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO HANDLED BOTH VINYL AND SLEEVE METICULOUSLY. INCREDIBLE ALBUMS THAT I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING WEEKS.

MY LONG STANDING SERIOUS COLLECTOR CUSTOMERS WILL APPRECIATE THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PRISTINE MUSEUM GRADE  ALBUM. NEW CUSTOMERS AS WELL, IF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY INTO COLLECTING THEN THIS MUST NOT BE PASSED UP

THE LABELS

THE  LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE TEXTURED ORANGE BASE COLOUR HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND THERE IS NO COLOUR LOSS ANYWHERE. THE 1ST ISSUE LABEL IS IDENTIFIED BY THE FACT THAT IT IS TEXTURED AND NOT SMOOTH, AND BY THE NUMBER 33 AT 7 O'CLOCK INSTEAD OF 33 1/3RD. 

THE ORANGE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE  SPINDLE HOLE, A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLES REVEALS JUST 7-8 SPIDER LINES CLOSE BY INDICATING A BARELY PLAYED DISC

THE VINYL

THE LP SHINES LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. WHEN I PLACED THIS UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION I COULD SEE NUMEROUS TINY LITTLE WISPY SURFACE LINES SO PRESUMED THE RECORD WOULD NOT PLAY AS WELL AS THE GRADE I EVENTUALLY GAVE IT. IN DAYLIGHT THE LP LOOKS FLAWLESS OF COURSE. HOWEVER IT IS CLEAR FROM THE PLAYTHROUGH THAT THESE LITTLE LINES ARE SUPERFICIAL AS YOU WILL HEAR IF YOU YOU PLAY THE AUDIO TRACK AT THE TOP OF THE LISTING

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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME 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 DISC PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY , AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS RECORD SOUNDS.

THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THE MONO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. I CANNOT BE CRITICAL OF THIS REPRODUCTION  IN ANY WAY AT ALL.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO ANY PART OF THE PLAYTHROUGH, MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLI.

THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS

THERE IS SOME OCCASIONAL LIGHT AND BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD ONLY IN A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES,AND ONE OR TWO LINKING GROOVES 

I HEARD NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF  STATIC TICS WHATSOEVER

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL  MINT MINUS!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH, AND JUDGE IT BY YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, UNLAMINATED REAR SURFACE WITH FLIPBACKS

THE FRONT SURFACE IS SUPERB!!

THE BROWN LAMINATED SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SLEEVE ,AND NO BENDS OR FOLDS EITHER

THERE ARE JUST THREE MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINES BY THE SPINE

NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE NONE ALONG THE  BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

LIGHT RECORD IMPRESSION VISIBLE WHEN ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAS THE LAMINATE FULLY RUNNING FROM SIDE TO SIDE WITH JUST THE TOP CORNER TIP ENDS HAVING A PIN PRICK OF RUB

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE, AND THERE IS NO LOSS OF COLOUR ANYWHERE, JUST A TINY LAMINATE CHIP ABOVE THE TITLE AND A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE TIP ENDS

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP  

THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS. THE WHITE SURFACE HAS VERY LIGHTLY AGED

ALL OF THE TEXT IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED

THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB UNSPLIT CONDITION. ONE LIGHT CORNER CREASE LINE AT THE BOTTOM AND LIGHT NATURAL AGEING TO THE EDGES MAINLY

THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT!!!

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