FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.com JUDEE SILL - JUDEE SILL
1971 UK 1ST PRESS
MINT MINUS AUDIO ALL THE WAY THROUGH
OUTSTANDING NEAR MINT SLEEVE
THE LABELS
THE WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS.
THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UN-RUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 2-3 TINY SPIDER LINES AGAINST THE SPINDLE HOLE, AND ON SIDE TWO A PAIR OF INITIALS BARELY VISIBLE ABOVE THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES, AND IN DAYLIGHT THIS HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO A MAGNIFYING LED HALO, THE RECORD ONLY SHOWS A FEW BARELY VISIBLE MINUSCULE WISPY HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THIS VINYL PLAYS EVERY BIT AS SUPERBLY AS IT LOOKS. FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS STEREO SOUND IN EVERY WAY.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, OR LOUD CLICKS OR SMALL ONES FOR THAT MATTER
CERTAINLY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS WAS INTENDED
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN A FEW SPECKS OF STATIC AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, HAVE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE DEEP RICH COLOURS ARE STILL IN THE BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE. NO COLOUR FADE WHATSOEVER
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
A COUPLE OF SMALL SPECKS OF WHITE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL PRESSURE LINE NEAR THE SPINE. TWOALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE FOUR CORNERS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE TIPS
THE TOP EDGES HAVE A SMALL SCUFF ON THE REAR, WITH A DOT OF RUB ON THE RIGHT TIPS
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A SLIVER OIF RUB ON THE FRONT EDGE AND A SPECK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND UN-SQUASHED, AND THE SURFACE IS SMOOTH AND UNDAMAGED. A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF RUB ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE AND A LITTLE ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS DEEPLY COLOURED AS THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO SUPERB NEAR PORISTINE INNER PANELS.
I AM REALLY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
