THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE OLIVE GREEN LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE JUST 203  MINISCULE  SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS 40 YEAR OLD ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM AND NEAR FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, WITH JUST ONE TINY HANDLING MARK (NON SOUNDING) ON SIDE ONE. AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES

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

THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION.

THE FIRST THING TO SAY IS THAT IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER. A  REALLY CRISP CLEAN STEREO REPRODUCTION WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED. FAULTLESS!!!

THE VINYL IS SILENT WHERE IT SHOULD BE RIGHT FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE DISC, AND THIS CONTINUES RIGHT THROUGH THE WHOLE ALBUM.

THERE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB, AND THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLES AT ALL. NO CLICKS AND NO STATIC, JUST A MAGNIFICENT FIRST PRESS REPRODUCTION.

I HEARD ONE TINY LITTLE DUST POP ABOUT A MINUTE INTO 'DEAD BABIES' BUT THAT IS ALL

I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF THOUGH

THE SLEEVE

ORIGINAL WB GATEFOLD SLEEVE. THIS SLEEVE HAS A HISTORY OF BEING HARD TO FIND IN A COLLECTIBLE CONDITION DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT IS UNLAMINATED AND HAS ONE OF THOSE  POWDERY FINISHES THAT ARE SERIOUSLY PRONE TO RUBBING AND RING WEAR.BUT MOSTLY BECAUSE THE PERFORATED CALEDAR ON MOST COPIES IS EITHER MISSING COMPLETELY OR THE PERFORATIONS HAVE STARTED TO TEAR MAKING IT VERY LOOSE

THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND THE RED POWDERY SURFACE IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND AMAZINGLY THERE IS NO SIGN OF RING WEAR WHATSOEVER.

THERE ARE 5 SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, AND THE TOP LEFT CORNER HAS A TINY DING

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR AND REMAIN UNRUBBED.

THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN UNBLEMISHED CONDITION, AGAIN ALL OF THE GREENS AND BLUES ARE PERFECTLY INTACT

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A NEAR PRISTINE PAIR OF PURPLE PANELS. THE REPLICA REAR SURFACE IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION, WHILST THE PLAIN PURPLE SIDE HAS JUST TWO TINY FLECKS OF WHITE SHOWING THROUGH.

THE SPINE WITH THE CATALOGUE NUMBER ON IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE IS NO SHELF WEAR.

THE PERFORATED SPINE IS AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED PERFECTLY ATTACHED STILL. FLAT AND NO LOSS OF COLOUR WHATSOEVER

OPENING THE SLEEVE UP TO REVEAL THE CALENDAR SHOWS IT TO BE IN MINT CONDITION. NO BLEMISHES AT ALL APART FROM WHERE THE CORNER DING WAS AND SHOWS A LITTLE CREASE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LEFT EDGE. THE CALENDAR IS PERFECTLY ATTACHED TO THE SLEEVE

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
