Description



Have confidence in my grading. All records are inspected under strong l.e.d. lights and graded using the record collectors guide - see grading guide at the bottom of my page. I take every care to describe accurately, please take the time to read my feedback comments.


I have a collection of 60,s 70,s heavy rock, prog rock etc that I will be listing over the coming months. These are all in fantastic condition and include some very rare first pressings. I will be listening to all these prior to listing to ensure absolute accurate descriptions.




Catalogue no; STL5492


Matrix nos; 1Y2, 2Y2




Sleeve in stunning excellent ++ condition, would be near mint but for a very small area of surface damage on the back which looks like it could be a factory flaw. 


Original inner in excellent condition.


Labels in excellent + condition, one spindle mark on A side.




Vinyl visually in excellent + condition, a few very faint sleeve removal scratches visible under led lights. Lies completely flat on turntable. 


I have played the Lp through in full on my Thorens TD125. Playback is fantastic with just a couple of the tiniest spots of crackle audible. I have not cleaned it. 


Stunning Copy all round. 





Any additional information or photos required please ask.

Please check my feedback.





Record grading;




Mint- item is factory sealed.

Near mint - item has been opened but has no marks visible under led lights.

Excellent- record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality.

Very good - record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.

Good - record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated.

Fair - record is still just playable, displays considerable surface noise and may even jump.

I also use + and - when a record falls between two grades and try to put a brief description of any noticeable faults and to photograph and faults.
