NICK DRAKE - FRUIT TREE - THE COMPLETE RECORDED WORKS
3LP BOX SET
PLAYS MINT / MINT MINUS
NEAR MINT BOX
THE RECORDS
THIS SET CONSISTS OF ALL THREE LP'S THAT NICK DRAKE RECORDED. FIVE LEAVES LEFT, BRYTER LAYER AND PINK MOON. IT ALSO CONTATINS THE FOUR TRACKS HE RECORDED SHORTLY BEFORE HE DIED THAT WERE NEVER RELEASED
THE LABELS
THE ISLAND LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES AROUND ANY OF THE HOLES ON DISCS TWO AND THREE AND JUST 1-2 ON ONE SIDE OF DISC ONE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAY LIGHT AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE A MAGNIFYING LED HALE, ALL THREE DISCS LOOK MINT
THE TEST PLAY
I HAVE PLAYED JUST ONE OF THE THREE RECORDS (DISC ONE)
THE FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY , BUT WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU EXPECT FROM AN UNPLAYED VINYL.
AS I MENTIONED AT THE TOP OF THE LISTING, THE VINYL HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED AND MY ONE CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL LEAVE NO TRACES WHATSOEVER.
SO THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE BECAUSE THE DISC IS MINT, AND NO VINYL NOISE EITHER.
SUPERB CLEAR AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH
THE ODD MINUSCULE SEPCK OF STATIC
AND ON TINY TIC ON SIDE TWO
NOTHING EMBEDDED
VINYL THAT I WOULD GRADE AS MINT / MINT MINUS FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THE LID ON THIS BOX SET IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.
DEEP RICH GLOSSY COLOUR AND NO SCRATCHES OR DENTS ANS NONE OF THE EDGES HAVE ANY PRESSURE LINES AGAINST THEM
THE CORNER TIPS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THEM AND THATS ALL
THE FOUR SIDES OF THE LID ARE ALSO IN TOP CONDITION WITH THE ONLY SPECK OF RUB SHOWING ON THE SEALED CORNERS
THE BOX LID CORNERS ARE NOT SPLIT
THE BASE OF THE BOX IS ALSO IN GREAT SHAPE
OPENING THE BOX REVEALS TWO WHITE INNER PANELS, AND LIKE THE LID THE BASE HAS FOUR UNSPLIT CORNERS
THE THREE LP'S ARE IN MAGNIFICENT MINT CONDITION. THE SLEEVES ARE FLAWLESS AND THE BLACK POLY LINED INNERS ARE PERFECT AS WELL
THE BOOK IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION
THE BOX AND CONTETNTS GRADE MINT MINUS
