THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE BLACK AND SILVER DEEP GROOVE UNBOXED LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE DEEP RICH COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 2-3 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.

THE VINYL

THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN SUPERB CONDITION, REALLY GLOSSY AND NOT DULL LIKE MOST WORN OUT COPIES. IN DAY LIGHT THE DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS

EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE 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 DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WILL 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

THE RECORD PLAYS AS NEW ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITHOUT DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED STYLUS AND ALSO UNWORN .

PLEASE PLAY THE SOUNDBITES AND THEN YOU WILL TRULY APPRECIATE JUST HOW MAGNIFICENT THIS 1958 RECORDING TRULY IS

ABSOLUTE CRYSTAL CLEAR MONO REPRODUCTION WITH EVERY SINGLE NOTE SOUNDING AS ORIGINALLY INTENDED

FIRSTLY THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE MAINLY DEATHLY SILENT WITH JUST THE VERY ODD MINUSCULE SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A FEW OF THEM

I HEARD NO DUST POPS AND NO STATIC TICS EITHER

WITH ALL THINGS CONSIDERED AND TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE STUNNING CONDITION OF THIS ALBUM I AM GOING  GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS

HERE YOU HAVE A GENUINE BUDDY HOLLY 1958 RELEASE IN THE MOST UNIMAGINABLE CONDITION POSSIBLE. DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, PLAY ALL OF THE SOUNDBITES AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN PERSONAL STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

THE BOTTOM EDGE ONLY HAS A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE CORNER TIP ENDS

THE SPINE IS ONCE AGAIN FULLY LAMINATED, NO PEEL OR FLAKE,  THE ENDS ARE NEAR PERFECT JUST A MINUSCULE SPECK OF RUB.

THE OPENING EDGE IS  SHARP WITH A FEW TINY SPECKS OF BURRING

THE REAR SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE POROUS WHITE SURFACE INTOP WHITE CONDITION  THERE IS THE BAREST SHADOW OF LIGHT NATURAL AGEING MAINLY AROUND THE EDGES. THERE IS NO RING WEAR, JUST A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE
