Description
THE ROLLING STONES - 'THE BEST OF THE ROLLING STONES'
This rare & unique German compilation was issued by the 'Deutscher Schallplattenclub' (German Record Club) in 1966
The disc has red & gold Decca labels with the catalogue number: BD 1080-C
Machine stamped matrix numbers: LPD-011500-X & LPD-011501-X
Vinyl weight: 153g
The disc is housed within a fully laminated German printed cover with 'dancing-style' listed after each song on the rear tracklist.
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
Both are clean & unblemished with a collection of light spindle trails around each unworn centre hole but no damage or wear or any of the gold print.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Pristine, deep-gloss playing surfaces which display no noticeable surface marks or scratches when viewed in strong daylight. Even close examination directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp fails to reveals anything more than one or two harmless inner-sleeve removal marks.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +
Wonderful warm & clean sound quality with no trace of any groove/playwear distortion on any track or either channel. My play-check detected slight background on a few of the quieter passages & between tracks and just a single soft 'pop' on 'Heart Of Stone', but no other traces of audible wear whatsoever.
Cover: VERY GOOD
A respectable example of this fragile cover which despite significant age-toning to front & rear panels is otherwise clean & glossy. There is some light shelfwear to the corners & lower edge but no tears or damage to either opening edge. There is a 12cm taped split on the spine but both upper & lower seams are still fully intact. No original inner-sleeve is present.
