THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE APPLE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE DARK GREEN SIDES ARE VERY RICH AND VIBRANT, AND HAVE LOST NONE OF THE COLOUR AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHITE SIDES ARE VERY WHITE AND HAVE NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN.
THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF BARELY VISIBLE SMALL SPIDER LINES BY THE HOLES
THE VINYL
THE VINYLS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THEIR ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE ARE JUST A FEW ULTRA FINE WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF FINE HANDLING LINES VISIBLE
THE TEST PLAY
THIS DOUBLE ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH ALL FOUR SIDES
NO DISTORTION WHATSOEVER TO THE AUDIO
THE SOUND IS CRYSTAL CLEAR ALL THROUGH THE PLAY
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
ALL I HEARD DURING THE PALY WERE SOME RANDOM MINUSCULE SPECKS OF STATIC AND A FEW LITTLE STATAIC TICS HERE AND THERE, WHICH DO NOT AFFECT THE PLAY QUALITYAN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO BE ABLE TO GRADE VINYL PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT
