THE RECORD
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL BLACK AND SILVER 2 BOX LABELS IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND SILVER LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED (APART FROM A VERY TINY SPECK ON THE LEFT OF THE SPINDLE HOLE ON SIDE ONE) .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WHICH HAS NO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES SHOWING JUST WHY THIS SUPERB VINYL IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT,AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.
UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD STILL LOOKS MINT
THE TEST PLAY
THIS STEREO ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE.
MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL IS FLAWLESS!!!
GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE ALL YOU HEAR IS SILENCE. NO CRACKLES ANYWHERE, AND THIS INCREDIBLE STANDARD IS MAINTAINED ALL THROUGH BOTH SIDES.
THE RUN IN IS SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS SILENT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. AND NO VINYL NOISE
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
IF YOU WANT A REALLY STUNNING COPY OF REVOLVER BUY, THEN YOU SHOULD TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN TO THIS COPY
I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE AUDIO MINT
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE. NON LAMINATED REAR WITH FLIPBACKS FROM GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A GLOSSY LAMINATE THAT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. NO PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASE LINES, FOLDS OR BENDS, AND EVEN THE CORNERS ARE TOTALLY SQUARE
THERE ARE FOUR SMALL PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
NONE OF THE EDGES HAVE BROWNED LIKE I SEE SO OFTEN ON THIS SLEEVE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY WEAR AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION. HAS THE TAPERED ENDS AND WHICH OFTEN LOSES THE LAMINATE, BUT THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED AND 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS THE ONLY AREA WHERE THERE IS A MONOR FLAW. THE RECORD HAD BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PVC OUTER SLEEVE WHICH HAS LEFT A RESIDUE OF A HERRINGBONE EFFECT ON THE BLACK. IT'S NOT AWFUL BUT THERE NON THE LESS
THE FLIPBACKS ARE PERFECT AND THE BLACK SURFACE HAS REMAINED TOTALLY UNRUBBED
THE ORIGINAL ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE IS IN GREAT CONDITION.NO SPLITS OR CREASES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
