THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE BLUE ISLAND LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE  RICH DEEP BLUE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.THERE IS NO RUBBING OR ANY STAINING OR PEN MARKS ANYWHERE. I CAN SEE ONLY ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING, THAT THE LP SET HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED.

THE VINYL

THE RECORDS STILL HAVE ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE, AND LOOKS MAGNIFICENT. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS ON THE DISC,AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TO BE FLAWLESS AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE.

THE LP HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE AND HAS SAT INSIDE THE SLEEVE FOR 35 YEARS

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 ALUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP'S PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW CRISP AND CLEAN THE DISC SOUNDS.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY, JUST THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED

ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY STATIC EITHER, APART FROM A SPECK JUST BEFORE THE MUSIC STARTS

I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE TINY DUST POP THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS!!!. IT'S A REAL STUNNER

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH

THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS EASILY DAMAGED SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE GREYS AND BLACKS ALL REMAIN UNRUBBED AND THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE DIE CUT WINDOWS

THERE ARE A COUPLE OF WHITE LINES ACROSS THE SURFACE WHERE A COUPLE OF THE SMALL LINES NEAR THE SPINE ON THE FRONT SURFACE HAVE CREPT ROUND. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS HAVE RUBBING AND THERE IS SOME SHELF WEAR TO THE TOP LEADING EDGE AT THE VERY BOTTOM

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST ONE OR TWO TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS TO SHOW THAT THE LP'S WERE REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE A COUPLE OF TIMES.
