Description

Colosseum Daughter of Time - Vinyl - 1970 (Vertigo, swirl label)


Band: Colosseum

Album Title: Daughter of Time

Version: Second UK pressing in gatefold cover

Producers: Gerry Bron

Label/Format: Vertigo Records - white background with small vertigo swirl at top.

Label Conditions: Both clean, fresh and attractive with light, mainly quite fine spindle marks.

Cat Number: 6360 017

Speed: 33.3 rpm

Country of Manufacture: England

Original Year of Release: 1970

Outside Cover Front: The front, with its iconic ‘bronzed’ image remains a classic. There are some signs of wear e.g. imperfections/indentations to the lower right portion of the cover. Otherwise, the colours are strong, rich and with clear definition & no ring wear.

Outside Cover Back: The back is virtually immaculate. With no ring wear, this is quite an unusual sight.

Spine and Text: Solid and quite straight with no compression. The spinal text is clear (and for 40 years+) easy to read

Corners: Moderate rubbing to all, good shape is retained.

The Inner Sleeve: original outer natural discolouration 
 (Vertigo swirl) paper with polythene inner. There is evidence     over the years and creasing.

Vinyl Condition/Visual Grading: EXCELLENT: a fine visual copy that is clean, shiny, intense black and solidly pressed. There are some very light surface marks but NO penetrating scratches, hence few pops or significant clicks to be heard. Visually a splendid record that should please many a collector.

Warps: Assume all records I offer have no warping of any significance and all tracking is easy and effortless and should play on all turntables, even ‘budget’ decks.

Album Played For Grading: Yes. [I play ALL records I offer before submitting to Ebay, also the record is played in its entirety unless clearly stated otherwise. I do NOT play snippets or joining grooves to check for sound quality and quietness – I play from the beginning to end via clinically revealing B&W speakers that include the legendary tweeter from their phenomenal Nautilus range that reveals every blemish or minuscule sound present on any record.]

 

Sound Quality and Audio Grading: This 1970’s record plays mostly above its visual grading with little to fault. Strong, distortion-free sound, all frequencies are sharp and clear - sound quality is very high with a wide dynamic range and very detailed sound. Any surface sounds are mainly light and infrequent; the odd trace on the quiet passage here and there, enough to remind it is a record being played, nota clinical digital format.
