THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE WHITE MAGNET ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS.A WHITE SURFACE THAT IS STILL PURE WHITE, AND FULLY RUNNING UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BRED TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE , APART FROM A COUPLE OF 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 ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND I DIDN'T HEAR MORE THAN THE ODD SPECK OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I HEARD 2-3 TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS !!!
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED SHOREWOOD SINGLE SLEEVE
USUALLY FOUND TERRIBLY RUBBED DUE TO THE POWDERY UNLAMINATED SURFACE. HERE HOWEVER IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND THE MAIN BODY OF THE FRONT IS VERY CLEAN WITH JUST A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RING WEAR AT THE VERY TOP
THERE IS ONE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE WHICH IS MORE OF A THUMB LINE AS IT REACHES UPWARDS FOR ABOUT AN INCH AND A HALF. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ONLY VERY LIGHTLY RUBBED WITH SOME SMALL WHITE FLECKS VISIBLE ON BOTH EDGES
THE SPINE IS JUST OUTSTANDING. 100% FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED.EVERY BIT OF THE DELICATE COLOURS ARE PRESENT AND RUN FROM TOP TO BOTTOM
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND PRISTINE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS CLEAN AS THE FRONT WITH NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS THE FRONT. JUST ONE LINE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE IN THE RIGHT CORNER
THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES, UNSPLIT , NO MARKS OR STAINS, JUST A LITTLE AGEING TO THE EDGES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
