Rolling Stones Records - CUN 59100 - UK 1979

Vinyl/Sleeve: VG+/EX

Matrix: (a) CUN 59100 A-1

Vinyl: Very Good +  

This record has been cleaned and play checked. Side one has bag rash (clouding or swirling of the playing surface due to long term storage in a PVC sleeve) and as is often the case, it has some light surface noise. This isn't particularly distracting and just sounds like what you'd get from light scuffing, it's just that in this case, it doesn't look very nice. There is also a 4mm scuff mark in track four that isn't feelable. Side two is unaffected although there are a few light tics during the intro to Sister Morphine. The labels have little in the way of spindle trails and there is little to suggest that this has had a lot of play. 

Sleeve: Excellent  

The zipper sleeve is in really nice condition with almost no edge wear, no ring wear and only a light wrinkle/crease on the back of the sleeve around about the belt line. The die-cut parts of the front sleeve have no damage - just the tiniest of wrinkles, and the zipper is still attached and fully functioning. The insert is also in excellent condition and looks like it's never left the sleeve more than a couple of times. This sleeve rarely pops up in such nice condition.

Side One:  Brown Sugar / Sway / Wild Horses / Can't You Hear Me Knocking / You Gotta Move      

Side Two:  Bitch / I Got The Blues / Sister Morphine / Dead Flowers / Moonlight Mile   

Combined postage offered to UK destinations ONLY. I'll send an invoice if you've bought more than one record.

A few words on Vinyl Grades.........

My vinyl grades are pretty much in line with those commonly used here on eBay and other specialist vinyl sites. The descriptions I provide are of equal significance as they will include any details I would consider useful to know when deciding whether to purchase a vinyl record. I normally examine a record’s playing surface in more than one daylight condition, this is because the lighting at different times of day tend to reveal details that might not be noticeable at other times of day. For example, bright angled morning light shining through a window will reveal a multitude of fine lines and dust that are often superficial, and these can distract from significant surface imperfections which might be more noticeable later in the day. Sleeve grades shouldn't really require an explanation, needless to say, the photos and descriptions should speak for themselves.    

Mint (M) : Never played, and the only way you can be fairly confident that it hasn’t been played, is if the record is still sealed (and that’s not foolproof).

Near Mint (NM) : A record that shows hardly any evidence of being played – both in appearance and sound quality.

Excellent (EX) : A record that may have minor surface marks and/or minimal surface noise or tics.

Very Good + (VG+) : The record will be close to excellent but may have some distinct marks or hairlines that may even be feelable - but not to excess. Sound quality may be slightly impaired with light surface noise/crackle or tics.

Very Good (VG) : The record will have several marks or scratches, and/or sound quality that isn’t that great

Good+ (G+) : This will be a record that has many surface marks or scratches and poor sound quality. I wouldn’t normally sell anything that would grade below this (ie ‘good’ or ‘acceptable’). Anything below this grade would probably have skips and I rarely sell records that have skips.
