Both records visually in NM- condition: no scratches, a few light marks only visible in bright light. Like new luster.
Play testing reveals excellent clarity and dynamic range with light background crackle throughout. Rare if any 'tics' heard above music. Outer sleeve NM with very little wear. Recording posted on request. Please see photos and ask any questions.

My Vinyl Philosophy
Some sellers rely solely on "visual grading", hiding the fact that even though a record looks pristine, it may sound terrible. Records that I review are play-tested and their sonic qualities described. I won't list pressings which sound muted in any range, compressed, or that are just not recorded "hot" enough. Those with significant noise will be listed only if the record or performance is rare.
As most collectors know, even identical pressings can sound different. Even a brand new record may have defects. Even renowned issues like the original Mercury Living Presence and DG 'tulip' pressings can sound as bad as a budget label. That's why I play-test everything I list.
For the most part I focus on classical vinyl records, and I take it seriously. Please see my feedback and ask any questions. Records are cleaned thoroughly with distilled water and a clean microfiber before play-testing. Condition will improve, of course, with a professional cleaning.
