THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. ALL COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT WITH AN UNRUBBED RED LOGO AND SILVER TYPEFACE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN AND THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE .
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. GLEAMING LIKE NEW IT IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING HALOO THE RECORD STILL LOOKS MINT
THE TEST PLAY
AN ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING AUDIO REPRODUCTION FROM BEGINNING TO END, AND A STEREO RECORDING THAT HAS TO BE HEARD.
THERE ARE MANY OUTSTANDING PASSAGES OF MUSIC ON THIS ALBUM AND NONE OF THEM ARE DISTURBED BY ANY UNWANTED NOISES. NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT, MEANING THAT ANY PLAY THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED SINCE NEW WAS CONDUCTED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAS A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED.
THE RUN IN GROOVE IS SILENT AS ARE THE LINKING GROOVES
THE MUSIC PLAYS WITHOUT ONE IOTA OF BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER. THERE ARE NO CLICKS AND VIRTUALLY NO STATIC
I CANT SAY THAT I HEARD ANY LITTLE DUST POPS EITHER
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THIS INCREDIBLE VINYL GRADES MINT
TAKE A LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS PRISTINE HAVING, A VERY SHINY SURFACE NO CREASES, CREASE LINES FOLDS OR BENDS AND NO LOSS OF COLOUR THROUGH ANY RUBBING OR WEAR OTHER THAN A VERY THIN SLIVER OF WHITE JUST OVER THE BOTTOM EDGE IN THE RIGHT HAL
THERE ARE JUST TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE, WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS ALL OF THE BLACK RUNNING ACROSS THE SURFACE WITH A SPECK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE BLACK COLOUR RUNS NICELY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND ONLY HAS A COUPLE OF WHITE FLECKS VISIBLE ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM LEADING EDGES, AND A SPECK ON THE BOTTOM TIP
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS CLEARLY THAT THE LP HAS HARDLY EVER BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE.
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.JUST FIVE TINY LINES AGAINST THE SPINE
THE HEAVY PAPER LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS IN UNSPLIT, UNCREASED CONDITION, JUST A LITTLE RECORD IMPRESSION
THIS SLEEVE EASILY GRADES MINT MINUS
