THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLUE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. I AM STRUGGLING TO SEE ANY MORE THAN ONE TINY SPIDER LINE WHATSOEVER AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR AND HAS CLEARLY LOST NONE OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IT IS UNMARKED AND FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF 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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY 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.
THIS STEREO REPRODUCTION IS TRULY MAGNIFICENT , BOTH LOUD AND CRISP, IT PERFORMS WITHOUT A JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO CLICKS.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC SPECKS IN ONE OR TWO OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND IN THE DEAD WAX RUN OUT TO SIDE ONE
THERE ARE ZERO DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS VINYL MINT MINUS!!!
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO MARKS, STAINS, CREASES, CREASE LINES, DENTS, DINGS OR RUBBING.
THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. THREE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR . AGAIN THIS IS AN AREA WHERE MOST COPIES ARE BADLY RUBBED. THIS ONE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER WITH JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNERS.
THE SPINE IS UNSQUASHED 'FLAT SHAPE' AGAIN NORMALLY FOUND CRUSHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE THE ONLY SPOTS WHERE THERE IS A TINY SPECK OF RUBBING. PLUS A THIN WHITE LINE AT THE TOP
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND NOT EVEN ONE THUMB NAIL NICK ALONG THE EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS INCREDIBLE AS THE FRONT.
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PERFECT INNER PANELS
THE ORIGINAL PLAIN DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT AND UNSPLIT, WITH SOME LIGHT CREASE LINES TO ONE CORNER
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!!!!!
AN ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING COPY OF THIS GREAT ALBUM, AND WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
