THE LABELS
THE EDGE GROOVED BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION.
THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE JUST 3-4 SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS NEAR FLAWLESS. WHEN PLACED UNDER A SPOTLIGHT THERE ARE SOME SMALL HANDLING LINES, AND A FEW 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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS. IN PARTICULAR THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT
THERE IS SOME NATURAL RECORDING VINYL NOISE WHICH IS PART OF THE RECORDINGS AND NOT THE VINYL ITSELF, AND SOME LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES, AND MORE SILENT PASSAGES. YOU WILL ALSO HEAR SOME RANDOM LITTLE TICS AND POPS, BUT NOTHING LOUD DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC EXCELLENT +
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN TOP CONDITION WHEREAS SO MANY OF THESE FLIMSY SLEEVES ARE WORN AND TORN. THIS ONE IS NOT AND IMPORTANTLY NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED WHICH IS VERY UNUSUAL FOR THIS OFTEN ABUSED COVER.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHICH IS AGAIN A RARITY, AND ONLY WHEN YOU ANGLE THE SLEEVE INTO STRONG LIGHT CAN YOU MAKE OUT A SLIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE
THERE IS ONE TINY LINE NEAR THE SPINE. TWO ON THE TOP EDGE, AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, ALSO ONE TINY THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FULLY LAMINATED AND ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. THERE IS A SPECK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS
THE WAFER THIN SPINE IS SMOOTH AND FULLY LAMINATED, AND THERE IS NO WEAR TO THE SURFACE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP, WITH A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS AT THE VERY TOP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT
THE DIE CUT POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR PRISTINE CONDITION. AMAZINGLY NO SEAM SPLITS AND NO MORE THAN ONE CORNER CREASE. SOME NATURAL AGEING
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
