THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE SILVER LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS AND RED BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE DISC. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN.
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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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
ISLAND VINYL IS NOTORIOUS FOR 'VINYL NOISE' WITH MOST PRESSINGS HAVING THIS .HERE HOWEVER WE HAVE AN ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE NOISE FREE PRESSING
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CLEARLY AND CLEANLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE EITHER
NO CLICKS OR TICS, AND NO VINYL NOISE EITHER
THERE IS NO MORE THAN THE ODD SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES,
I HEARD JUST ONE TINY LITTLE DUST POP THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT !!! IT IS THAT GOOD
BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, GIVE IT A LISTEN AND MAKE YOUR OWN MIND UP
THE SLEEVE
A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE OF THIS NON LAMINATED FRAGILE 1ST PRESS EMBOSSED SILVER SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND CLEAN. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE SILVER SURFACE AND THUS NO COLOUR LOSS AT ALL.THIS IS VERY RARE BECAUSE THIS SILVER TOP SURFACE IS USUALLY FOUND RING WORN AND HEAVILY CREASED.BUT THIS COPY HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER AND HAS ESCAPED ALL THE USUAL DAMAGE. ALL THAT IS VISIBLE IS SOME VERY VERY LIGHT DULLING AROUND THE EDGES
THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND ONE MICROSCOPIC ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES WOULD USUALLY BE FOUND WITHOUT HARDLY ANY SILVER SURFACE LEFT, BUT ON THIS SLEEVE THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH ABSOLUTELY MINT!! ALL OF THE SILVER INCLUDING THE CORNER TIPS ARE IMMACULATE.
THE SPINE IS JUST AS NEW. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. ALL OF THE SILVER SURFACE IS THERE, AND EVEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE PERFECT.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND TOTALLY AS NEW. NO THUMB NAIL NICKS ALONG EITHER EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN SPECTACULAR CONDITION, AGAIN NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE, AND NOT ONE LINE NEAR ANY OF THE PERIMETER EDGES
NO RING WEAR OR EVEN A TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A 100% PRISTINE PAIR OF PANELS. THE GATEFOLD WON'T LAY FLAT AND THIS IS ENTIRELY BECAUSE THE SLEEVE HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE PLASTIC OUTER AND THERE JUST HASN'T BEEN ANY ATTEMPT MADE TO OPEN THE GATEFOLD
THE ORIGINAL BLACK POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN UNSPLIT CONDITION WITH BARELY A WRINKLE ON THE SURFACE
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE MINT MINUS!!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
