CUSTOMER UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2022
For the past 2 years GG_Supersounds has been listing records that in the main are in Mint or very close to it condition. We continue to track down and list the very best records that we are able to for our ever growing customer base For those that have been with us over that period of time will know that there are two business partners listing on the site. One from Horsham and the other from Bognor Regis From time to time this has been confusing for our customers as there often 2 invoices to pay where purchases are made from different locations by one customer To rectify this we have decided that the Horsham location will continue to list on GG_Supersounds, whilst the Bognor Regis location will now list on GG-Superstuff.
IT WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE TO BUY FROM BOTH LOCATIONS AND HAVE COMBINED SHIPPING, BUT THIS WILL BE RELIANT OF THE TWO OF US MEETING UP, AND WILL THEREFORE USUALLY TAKE MORE TIME, BUT IT IS DO-ABLE
Nothing Else Changes - Still the same superb selection of the best records will be available
FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED PRIOR TO LISTING SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING

IN MAGNIFICENT MINT MINUS CONDITION
NEAR MINT SLEEVE
ONE OF A SET OF THREE IMMACULATE RORY GALLAGHER ALBUMS THAT WE HAVE UP FOR AUCTION AT THIS TIME. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS TATTOO FROM 1973.
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE TWO SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR AND HAS CLEARLY LOST NONE OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IT IS UNMARKED AND EVEN UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH
NO DISTORTION MEANING NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO CLCIKS OR POPS
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO DUST POPS OR TICS
A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES HAVE AN ALMOST INAUDIBLE SPECK OF STATIC
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
TAKE A LISTEN AND GRADE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
FIRST PRESS E.J.DAY SLEEVE
THIS IS ANOTHER OF THOSE SLEEVES THAT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN A COLLACTABLE CONDITION, DUE TO THE FLIMSY POROUS CARD
THIS ONE IS FAR SUPERIOR TO MOST I HAVE SEEN OVER THE YEARS
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND ONLY SHOWS SOME LIGHT GREYING ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES FROM RECORD SHAPE
THERE IS ALSO A SMALL BROWN MARK ON THE SPINE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER
THE SPINE IS AN INCREDIBLE 'FLAT SHAPE' AGAIN NORMALLY FOUND CRUSHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND NOT EVEN ONE THUMB NAIL NICK ALONG THE EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE IS SIMILAR TO THE FRONT
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
