THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE TWO BROWN AND TAN LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN, AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.

THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE IS JUST TWO NEAR INVISIBLE SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING JUST WHY THE LP IS IN THE INCREDIBLE CONDITION THAT IT IS!!

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IS IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES TO BE SEEN. THERE IS ONE NEAR INVISIBLE TINY MARK ON THE OUTER RIM OF SIDE 2

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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THE SILENT BITS ARE  NEAR SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

THERE IS THE VERY ODD SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A FEW OF THE MORE SILENT SPOTS, AND ON SIDE 2 DURING THE FIRST 20 SECONDS OF THE OPENING TRACK THERE ARE 4-5 TINY TICS, OTHER THAN THAT JUST A FEW RANDOM LITTLE DUST POPS

YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND A COPY THAT PLAYS BETTER THAN THIS ONE

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT !!! IT IS THAT GOOD

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

SEMI LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE .

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY CLEAN. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE. AND ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT. 

THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE, AND INCREDIBLY NOT ONE LINE NEAR THE SPINE OR ANY OF THE OTHER EDGES FOR THAT MATTER, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THERE IS JUST THE BAREST SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP END

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. WITH JUST THE TWO RIGHT TIP ENDS HAVING THE BAREST TOUCH OF RUB

THE SPINE ITSELF IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED WITH ALL OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

JUST THE BOTTOM TIP END VERY LIGHTLY RUBBED

THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST AS NEW!! RAZOR SHARP AND LOOKING AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRINTED AND PUT TOGETHER. FURTHER PROOF THAT THE RECORD HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE.NOT EVEN A THUMB NAIL NICK ANYWHERE ALONG IT

THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN SUPERB CONDITION . AGAIN NO LINES WHATSOEVER

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS 2 PRISTINE INNER PANELS. JUST MINT!!!
