LEON RUSSELL - CARNEY
A&M KHAKI LABEL UK 1ST PRESS
NEAR MINT AUDIO OUTSTANDING NEAR MINT SLEEVE
THE LABELS
THE KHAKI 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 JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AGAINST 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 TOA MAGNIFYING LED HALO, THE RECORD ONLY SHOWS A COUPLE OF TINY 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
A&M VINYL IS SOMETIMES NOTORIOUS FOR HAVING EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE BUT THIS ONE HAS ABSOLUTELY NONE AT ALL WHERE THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS
ALL I HEARD WHERE IS SIT REALLY CLOSE TO MY SPEAKERS TYPING THIS OUT, WAS A TINY AMOUNT OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO NEAR MINT
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, HAVE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING MACNEILL NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS.
NO RING WEAR JUST A VERY LIGHT OUTLINE OF RECORD SHAPE UNDER THE TOP EDGE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE,N ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EDGE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE STILL SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A SPECK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP[
THE TOP EDGE IS FREE FROM ANY RUBBING WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT TIP END
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A LITTLE LIGHT SHEFL RUB AT THE CORNERS
THE SPINE HAS A FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION IN THE MIDDLE. IT HAS THE CORRECT TAPERED ENDS FOR THIS SLEEVE. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. NO RUB TO THE TOP OR BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE FRONT.
THE LYRIC INSERT HAS NO TEARS OR CREASES JUST A LITTLE EDGE AGEING
