Why go to the expense of paying top dollar for a new COPY of a Classical piece of vinyl when you can own the Original pressing! The Original was produced before the Master Tape had any chance to deteriorate.

 I have listened to many audiophile labels which are usually beautifully packaged and sound smooth which is what you pay for. However, they also sound mostly dull and lacking in drive and dynamics, compared to the Original pressing.

 But don't take my word for it, save yourself the price of an over-produced audiophile COPY and buy this Original record on the Original label with the Original cover work! 

Over-priced audiophile labels are only a good replacement if you can't get hold of the Original record in great condition. Now is your chance to own the Original and not the inferior copy!

 

PLEASE ENSURE YOU READ THE GRADING SYSTEM BELOW BEFORE BIDDING. 

 

THANK YOU

 

( RECORDS ARE USUALLY GRADED BY SIGHT ONLY . PLAY GRADED ONLY IF STATED )

  Grading Level = +/-                                                                                                  White = LP & Blue = Cover   MINT (+/-): Only used when the record has never been played. The cover and packaging would normally be sealed or as new.   NEAR MINT +  (NM+/-): The record looks in new condition and there are no surface marks. If play graded - no surface noise. The cover and packaging look new and are in near perfect condition. This is the top mark for USED LP's   EXCELLENT + (EX+/-) : The record shows little signs of having been played and there is no lessening in sound quality. It may have the occasional light background surface noise, with very few pops or clicks and very few if any, hairline marks. The cover and packaging may have a small amount of shelf wear (possibly a little bit of laminate lift) and maybe a few extra items on the packaging, such as cellotape or pen ink etc. However, it will have no rips, cuts, splits or tears unless stated.    VERY GOOD + (VG+/-) : The record shows sign of having been played many times, with perhaps a little deterioration in absolute sound quality, having a number of clicks and pops, with some background surface noise, noticeable surface marks and some hairline scratch marks. Normal wear and tear, maybe with a little soiling of the cover. It may also include some laminate lift, cover opening cuts or splits and maybe a few extra items on the packaging, such as cellotape or pen ink etc - but without any major defects.   GOOD + (G+/-) : The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeable deterioration. Usually with scratches and some distortion, it may even cause the stylus to jump or stick. As well as normal wear and tear, the cover and packaging can suffer from cuts and rips, folding, scuffing of edges, splits and extra items, probably with discoloration and/or a lot of soiling to the cover and packaging.   FAIR + (F+/-) : The record is still just playable, but has considerable surface noise, distortion and scratches; it will most likely cause the stylus to jump and may even stick in places. The cover and packaging will suffer from major defects and will be torn, stained and / or defaced - my lowest grade possible.
