THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND UNWORN. THERE ARE 1-2 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE ON EACH SIDE
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISCS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN, APART FROM ONE TINY DULL SPOT ON THE RUN IN TO SIDE TWO. IN DAYLIGHT THEY BOTH LOOK FLAWLESS, AND ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES LIGHTLY VISIBLE
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THIS ENTIRE DOUBLE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I AM CONVINCED THAT POTENTIAL BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE BIDDING ON,
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP'S PLAY WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THAT THEY HAVE RECEIVED HAVE BEEN COMPLETED WITH A CORRECTLY TRACKED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE AT ALL
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
I HEARD A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC AND NO MORE THAN 3-4 OF THE TINIEST DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS REPRODUCTION AS MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH
THE SLEEVE
EURO ALBUMS UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD
A VERY EASILY BLEMISHED SLEEVE DUE TO THE THIN CARD USED TO PRODUCE THE COVER. EURO ALBUMS ARE BEST KNOW FOR SLEEVES SUCH AS QUADROPHENIA AND SLADEST AND HAVE A TIE IN TO POLYDOR RECORDS. THE FEEL OF A EURO ALBUMS SLEEVE IS LIKE NO OTHER, ALMOST SKIN LIKE.
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN BUT DOES HAVE NUMEROUS SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE WHICH SHOW AS WHITE ON THE BLACK BORDER. THERE ARE ALSO A FEW SMALLER ONES ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, BUT NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH SHELF WORN WITH SOME OF THE ONCE BLACK SURFACE NOW MISSING
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, HOWEVER THERE ARE A COUPLE OF LINES ACROSS THE SURFACE WHICH HAVE CREPT ROUND FROM THE FRONT. THE TYPEFACE IS HAS ALSO BEEN LIGHTLY AFFECTED BY THE LINES WHERE THE LETTER U FROM GUITAR IS MISSING
THE SOFT CARD USED IN THE MANUFACTURE HAS ALSO ENSURED THAT THE OPENING EDGES HAVE LIGHTLY BURRED
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT.
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS, WITH THE 8 PAGE BOOKLET STILL FIRMLY ATTACHED TO THE SPINE
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVES ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND CLEAN AND UNSPLIT, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT WRINKLES. ONE OF THE BOTTOM CORNERS IS CREASED
SLEEVE GRADES EXCELLENT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
