LP catalog # SAX 2367
CONDITION Details:
The LP jacket is in NEAR MINT minus condition. The jacket is almost completely intact, with just a tiny seam split at the bottom seam. It has the marvellous flipped back seams, both top and bottom (and spine). The jacket does show some minor shelf wear - primarily rounding and slight bending of corners and weakening of seams. The colours on the front of the jacket are clean, vivid and bold (see picture below for more detail).
The LP is in Near Mint Minus condition! The vinyl retains most of it's original sheen and gloss. The record has one small mark about mid way through the Don Juan performance that sounds (light ticking) for 8 revolutions - otherwise everything is near mint. It may have some slight spider marks and/or finger prints, which are caused by sliding the LP in and out of the inner sleeve - typically these types of light, superficial marks do NOT sound on most audio systems. We spot play graded the LP on our audio system and found it to be in Near Mint minus condition throughout.A Short Note About LP GRADING -- Mint = Only used for sealed items.
- Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
- Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
- Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
- Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.
Please understand that this is a very old record - as such, one cannot expect the record to sound like a brand new, audiophile pressing! Some noise is inevitable - for best results, always properly clean your LPs before playing them.
The LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).
