Description
MINT AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH
NEAR MINT SLEEVE WITH SPIRAL INNER
AN ABSOLUTLY STUNNING EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE PSYCHEDELIC ALBUM FROM THE EARLY 70'S. LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN BARELY PLAYED
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE VERTIGO LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOUR HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE. THIS COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION AND EVERY LETTER IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 2-3 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED.AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS!!! THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISCS, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD STILL LOOKS AS GOOD AS NEW
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE SECOND OF VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
NO STATIC AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS THE ONLY AREA WHERE THERE IS A VERY SLIGHT IMPERFECTION. THERE IS A LITTLE LINE OF RUB JUST UNDER THE TOP EDGE AND AN EVEN SMALLER SLIVER ON THE BOTTOM EDGE
OTHER THAN THIS THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND REMAIN FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STATINS
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, NOT EVEN ANY LIGHT ONES AND JUST ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE . ONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A DOT OF RUB ON THE TIP ENDS
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGES HAVE VERY MINIMAL RUBBING, AND THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR
THE SPINE IS PERFECT. 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, UNMARKED, FREE FROM ANY MAJOR COLOUR LOSS AND HAS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE. A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE TOP END
THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS PRISTINE WITH JUST A DOT OF RUB TO THE CORNER TIPS
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVELAS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS
THE SWIRL INNER SLEEVE HAS NO SEAM SPLITS BUT HAS AGED
THE SLEEVE GRADES VERY CLOSE TO NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
