Description
Hello and welcome to my listing for this original first edition LP, on the Linn Records label from 1989. It’s a first edition copy of the second album by Glasgow’s own The Blue Nile.
My listings are play-graded with a full description of what I hear. I know what's important to you as a vinyl fanatic, and I won't shy away from telling you about any defects I find.
Format: LP
Disc Size & Speed: 12 inch 33 1/3 rpm
Cover Type: Smooth thin card, with a glossy finish.
Cover Condition: The front and rear faces are clean with some very minor creasing. There’s a small patch of edge wear in the centre of the bottom edge. The spine is fine and the printing is legible.
Inner Sleeves: Plain white lined paper inner sleeve.
Insert (if applicable): N/A
Cat No LKH 2, stamped DMC - 9604 A - 3/9 - 89 and DMC - 9604 B - 3/9 - 89
Record Warpage: none
Play Area Visual Condition: Both sides are clean with no marks.
Label Condition: Both labels are clean with no spindle marks. There is a mark from a manufacturing flaw in the cetre of the side 2 label.
Playback Comments: The story goes that Linn Products, being the manufacturer of the LP12 hifi turntable, wanted to create some records that would be worthy of their deck. I think it’s fair to say they succeeded. This is a very nice record indeed with great definition and a wide dynamic range.
Both sides play almost perfectly. I listened on headphones and there is nothing bad to report, except for a few low-level isolated clicks. There are no skips or sticks, or evidence of inner groove damage.
Tracklist:
A1 Over The Hillside
A2 The Downtown Lights
A3 Let's Go Out Tonight
B1 Headlights On The Parade
B2 From A Late Night Train
B3 Seven A.M.
B4 Saturday Night
Payment terms are Paypal or cash on collection if you would like to come and collect it from Glasgow G73. Whichever method you choose, I will dispatch it when I have your cash in my grubby mittens.
UK delivery is free for Royal Mail First Class.
The LP will be packaged in a cruciform mailer, the disc packed outside the sleeve (so as not to cause sleeve damage).
If you have any questions, please ask via ebay messaging. Thanks for looking and good luck!
