Description

KATE BUSH - " LIONHEART " EMI Records Ltd. Japan (EMS-811135) Stereo, 1978.

Very rare, 1978, Japanese Factory Sample of the '78 Kate Bush album.

This is a "Factory Sample" promo issue with the white label featuring full release label text, inner sleeve and insert.

Japanese issue and pressing.

Professionally cleaned on my Moth cleaning machine.

NOTE: this record is one of a collection I have just bought from an ex-EMI employee. Generally, these recordss have hardly been played... many have clearly had no more than a couple of quick test-plays. Even those which have clearly been used a bit more, have very well looked after and only ever played on a good quality, well set up turntable. Please read the condition description below for acurate detail on the condition of this particular LP.


CONDITION:

VINYL =  EXCELLENT  (No scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, hardly any spindle trails, etc. In normal daylight the vinyl appears perfectly clean, under a bright grading lamp I can make out a few very light paper scuffs - although none of these correspond directly to any audible defects.
On playback, there is some faint surface noise during the silent run-in (probably in the pressing) which disappears as soon as the music starts. It plays really well - strong, clean and without interuptions. Clearly a test pressing which has been used for it's original purpose, then hardly ever been played since.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)



SLEEVE = V.G.+ (No rips, tears, creases, defacing, etc. I have had to mark it down though for some general shelf wear to both the front and back covers and particularly the edges of the sleeve - all from time in storage rather than use and abuse - see photos for further clarification)

SORRY, NO OBI FOR THIS PARTICULAR LP.


NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the jokers now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.


ANY QUESTIONS? PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH!

HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!
