I HAVE ACQUIRED A COLLECTION OF STUNNING VINYLS THAT BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO HANDLED BOTH VINYL AND SLEEVE METICULOUSLY. INCREDIBLE ALBUMS THAT I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING WEEKS. THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO COLLECT VINTAGE VINYL IN THE SORT OF CONDITION THAT YOU COULD ONLY DREAM ABOUT..LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID, AS I HAVE RECORDED EVERY SINGLE SECOND
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE JET BLACK BASE COLOUR HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND THERE IS NO COLOUR LOSS ANYWHERE. THIS COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION
A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLES REVEALS JUST 7-8 SPIDER LINES CLOSE BY INDICATING A BARELY PLAYED DISC
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS SUPERB. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION SIDE ONE SHOWS NUMEROUS SUPERFICIAL WISPY HAIRLINES WHICH SEEM TO HAVE NO EFFECT ON PLAYBACK, SIDE TWO HAS JUST A FEW LIGHT WISPY LINES
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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME 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
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, NO HEAVY CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
THERE IS THE OCCASIONAL TINY SPECK OF VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
OTHER THAN THIS THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS
THE ACTUAL CLARITY OF THE VOCALS AND GUITAR WORK IS PERFECTLY REPRODUCED
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
I BELIEVE THIS GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, UNLAMINATED ' FLIPBACKED 'REAR SURFACE SINGLE SLEEVE .GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS SUPERB
THE LAMINATE IS QUITE MAGNIFICENT. IT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SLEEVE ,AND NO BENDS OR FOLDS EITHER
THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINE BY THE SPINE
NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
NO RECORD SHAPE OR ANY RING WEAR
THE TOP EDGE HAS A SMALL SCUFF IN THE MIDDLE RESULTING IN A COUPLE OF TINY SHARDS OF PAPER BEING EXPOSED FROM UNDER THE LAMINATE. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS PRISTINE WITH PERFECT CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE, AND THERE IS NO LOSS OF COLOUR ANYWHERE, AND AGAIN THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT
THE OPENING EDGE HAS A LITTLE BURRING TO THE LOWER HALF
THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS AND THEY ARE NOT DAMAGED IN ANY WAY EITHER.
THE BLACK POROUS SURFACE IS STILL IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION . NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE
THE GREASEPROOF PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB UNSPLIT CONDITION. AND THERE ARE NO CREASES,
THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT
