THE RECORD

THE LABELS

THE 2 SHADES OF BLUE ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE AND THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS STILL SOME RESIDUAL VINYL SHARDS IN AND AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE, AND JUST ONE BARELY VISIBLE SPIDER LINE TO SHOW JUST HOW LITTLE THIS SUPERB 1ST PRESS HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

SUPERB GLEAMING ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT DISC IN NEAR MINT FLAWLESS CONDITION. I SAY NEAR FLAWLESS BECUSE THERE IS ONE VERY FAINT LINE RUNNING ACROSS TRACKS 2,3 AND 4 ON SIDE ONE. I PROMISE IT'S NON SOUNDING, AND MY BEST GUESS IS THAT A TONE ARM HAS SKATED ACROSS THE DISC. GOOD JOB IT WAS TRACKING VERY LIGHTLY BECAUSE THE LINE IS JUST A SURFACE ONE. SO IN DAYLIGHT ALL YOU CAN SEE IS THIS ONE LIGHT LINE, OTHERISE IT'S MINT. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AS YOU WOULD EXPECT.

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 NOW DO WITH ALL  MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING ABID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE STUNNING BLUES SOUND GENERATED FROM THIS VINYL IS PURE FIRST PRESS, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY HOW IT WAS INTENDED. DISTORTION FREE AS WELL MEANING THAT THE ONE CAREFUL PLAYS THE RECORD HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A HIFI THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS

THE VINYL PLAYS ABSOLOUTELY SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITHOUT AND  BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR CLICKS. IN FACT THERE ARE SO MANY QUIET PASSAGES ON THIS PERFORMANCE THAT ANY AMOUNT OF BACKGROUND WOULD INSTANTLY BE A PROBLEM

THERE IS THE ODD SECOND OF VERY LIGHT AND BARELY AUDBLIE VINYL NOISE, AND ON SIDE 2 , THERE IS A LITTLE TIC JUST AS THE MUSIC STARTS. OTHER THAN THIS PERHAPS A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAY

AN ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS AUDIO PERFORMANCE THAT I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE MINT MINUS

PLEASE DONT JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE, HIPGNOSIS SINGLE SLEEVE.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES, CREASE LINES OR BENDS. THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR .

INCREDIBLY THERE IS JUST ONE MINISCULE LAMINATE LINE NEAR THE SPINE, NONE IN FACT ON EITHER OF THE OTHER TWO SEALED EDGES

THERE IS A SMALL LINE RUNNING ACROSS THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER TIP, AND ONE LITTLE CHIP TO THE LAMINATE JUST ON THE LEFT EDGE ON THE GIRL'S DRESS

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IMMACULATE. NO LOSS OF LAMINATE AND UNRUBBED

THE SPINE WOULD HAVE BEEN MINT IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE FACT THAT SOMETHING HAS NICKED THE SPINE SOMETIME AND TAKEN A TINY CHIP OUT OF THE LAMINATE WHICH HAS ALSO TAKEN THE TYPEFACE OFF AS WELL. OTHER THAN THIS THERE ARE NO FINGER TO THUMB SQUAHSES, THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT. THE TAPERED ENDS ARE UNWORN AND THE TIPS PIN SHARP, AND ALL OF THE REST OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE

THE REAR UNLAMINATED SURFACE IS IMMACULATE. NO LOSS OF THE COLOURS, NO MARKS, STAINS, CREASES ETC. JUST SUPERB!!!

THE INNER SLEEVE

THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN IMMACULATE CONDITION. NO SPLITS AT ALL AND VERY FLAT AND CLEAN, AND FURTHER PROOF THAT THE VINYL HAS JUST SAT INSIDE THE SLEEVE FOR YEARS  LIES WITH THE FACT THAT ONE EDGE OF THE INNER SLEEVE HAS AGED AND GONE LIGHT BROWN WHERE IT HAS SAT EXPOSED BY THE OPENING EDGE OF THE COVER. THE REST OF THE INNER IS PURE WHITE AND UNCREASED

THIS SLEEVE GRADES NEAR MINT

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