THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BROWN AND GREY A&M LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT UNBLEMISHED CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN PLAYED.
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW. IT HAS LOST NONE OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LOOKS AS GOOD NOW AS IT DID THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED. THERE ARE NO MARKS AT ALL ON THE SURFACE OF THE DISC AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN ONE OPIN PRICK SIZED MARK ON TRACK ONE, SIDE FOUR. IT PERFORMS EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP'S PLAY THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE CLARITY OF THE VOCALS AND INSTRUMENTATION IS JUST SUPERB!!! A CRYSTAL CLEAR AND CLEAN STEREO REPRODUCTION, THAT ANY COLLECTOR WOULD BE PROUD TO OWN
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO CLICKS
NO POPS, JUST A TINY NUMBER OF LITTLE TICS RIGHT AT THE START OF SIDE FOUR
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT FOR THE FIRST THREE SIDES AND MINT MINUS FOR SIDE FOUR
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH , HAVE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE ROBOR GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR, AND THERE IS NO MORE THAN A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES
NO PRESSURE LINES AGAIMNST THE SPINE
NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE. NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
ONE TINY CREASE LINE OVER THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE TOP EDGES HAVE A TINY SPECKOF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS AND ONE SMALL SCUFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE REAR SURFACE
THE BOTTOM EDGE ONLY SHOW A SPECK OF RUB AT THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS SOME LIGHT RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS BUT THAT IS ALL
THE OPENING EDGES ARE VERY SHARP WITH A FEW VERY TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS ON THE FRONT SURFACE
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME LOVELY CONDITION AS THE FRONT
THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVES ARE IN NEAR MINT UNSPLIT CONDITION. SOME LIGHT AGEING
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO NEAR PERFECT INNER PANELS, JUST A VERY SLIGHT TRACE IF HANDLING TO THE WHITE AREA
HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
