Condition:
Vinyl: EXCELLENT
Labels: EXCELLENT
The labels are bright, clean and without writing. Only very light spindle marks can be seen to both sides.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Immaculate 'factory-fresh' deep-gloss playing surfaces which show only subtle paper scuffs in strong daylight. A really strong example.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +
The audio is fantastic. This copy has clearly been played cautiously on good quality equipment. There is no sign of groove/play wear. There are quiet lead-ins to both sides and minimal static in between tracks. There is great channel separation, clear vocals and punchy bass. You will struggle to find a better listening experience.
Sleeve: EXCELLENT-
The sleeves look superb. The front retains a glossy finish with bright colours. A couple of short laminate ripples - usually present from the factory - can be seen on the front. The rear is very clean (just one small area of discolouration) and all three flip-backs are in great condition. All four corners are crisp and sharp with just subtle softening. The opening and top and bottom edges along with the square spine are without any wear.
Inner Sleeve: EXCELLENT
The original inner sleeve is in great condition. It is perfectly clean with no tears, writing or seam splits. The vinyl is housed inside an audiophile quality, anti-static inner sleeve to help protect and preserve the record and inner sleeve.
The record will be sent via an insured courier in a padded vinyl mailer.
