THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE MATT ORANGE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. CLEAN WITH JUST A COUPLE OF VERY TINY DARK MARKS AND A LIGHT RIPPLE UNDER THE SURFACE ON SIDE ONE, WHICH WAS A FACTORY FLAW

THE VINYL

SUPERB LOOKING VINYL THAT HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TO BE FLAWLESS, AND ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW  WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF VERY FINE SUPERFICIAL AND TINY HANDLING 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 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, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. AND THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT FACT IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION ON THIS FIRST PRESS IS JUST INCREDIBLE. IT HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY PRODUCED AND THE NOTES ARE CRYSTAL CLEAR AND CUT LOUDLY

THERE IS NO HEAVY CRACKLE EITHER, JUST THE OCCASIONAL BIT OF LIGHT AND BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN ONE OR TWO SPOTS

I HEARD PERHAPS 3-4 TINY LITTLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH

THE SLEEVE

 

 

UNLAMINATED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS STILL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE WHITE BASE COLOUR IS STILL VERY WHITE AND ONLY SHOWS VERY VERY LIGHT HANDLING TO THE EDGES. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND JUST FOUR REALLY TINY LITTLE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. TWO OR THREE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, BUT NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE. THE VERY BOTTOM EDGE OF THE SLEEVE HAS A COUPLE OF SMALL SCUFFS TO THE BROWN SURFACE.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH IN PRISTINE UNRUBBED CONDITION WITH THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER

THE SPINE IS THIN AND 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. AGAIN ALL OF THE WHITE BASE COLOUR IS UNRUBBED AND THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS  SHARP, AND CLEARLY SHOWS THAT THE RECORD HASN'T BEEN OUT OF THE COVER VERY OFTEN.

THE REAR LIKE THE FRONT IS STILL VERY WHITE WITH THE SAME LIGHT TRACE OF HANDLING TO THE EDGES

THE ORIGINAL WHITE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN  NEAR MINT UNSPLIT CONDITION, AND PURE WHITE. IT HAS THE CORRECT 1-76 DATE PRINTED IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER

THE INSERT SHEET IS ALSO IN VERY GOOD ORDER. IT DOES HAVE 4 SMALL RESIDUAL DOTS IN THE CORNER OF ONE SIDE WHERE I SUSPECT IT MAY HAVE BEEN BLU-TACKED TO A WALL, BUT OTHER THAN THIS IT IS IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION 

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS

 

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
