THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED AND SILVER LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE SILVER BAND IN THE MIDDLE  IS UN-RUBBED AND NOT SOILED AT ALL. -THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.  THERE ARE ONLY 2-3 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES BY EACH SIDE OF THE HOLE SHOWING WHY THIS VINYL IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS-

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL  IS AS CLEAN AND MARK FREE AS YOU COULD WANT.EVEN WHEN PUT UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, OTHER THAN A FEW NEAR INVISIBLE WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I JUST KNOW THAT POTENTIAL BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, AND WHILST THIS TAKES ME FAR LONGER TO COMPLETE, I AM CONVINCED THE EFFORT IS WORTH IT

THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FIRST PRESS ALL THE WAY. JUST CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL. THIS LP HAS BARELY HAD ANY PLAY AND WHAT LITTLE IT HAS RECEIVED WAS CONDUCTED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A PERFECTLY WEIGHTED STYLUS AND ONE THAT WAS ALSO UNWORN

THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST AS NEW!! NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS

I SIT NO MORE THAN A FEW INCHES FROM MY SPEAKERS AS I TYPE THIS OUT AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN THE ODD RANDOM SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC AND A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST STATIC TICS

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A KEEPER COPY OF THIS CLASSIC BOLAN ALBUM THEN I BELIEVE YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER EXAMPLE THAN THIS ONE

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS CLASSIC ALBUM AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS 

THE SLEEVE

FULLY LAMINATED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SINGLE SLEEVE

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE TO FIND IN A REAL COLLECTIBLE CONDITION BECAUSE THE LAMINATED SURFACE IS SO EASILY CREASED, AND MOST COPIES LOOK TERRIBLE. 

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS SUSTAINED ZERO!!! COLOUR LOSS , AND THE LAMINATED SURFACE IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND ALSO NO RECORD SHAPE. NO LAMINATE PEEL, FLAKE OR LIFT.

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND INCREDIBLY ONLY THREE OF THE SMALL LAMINATE PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE EITHER

NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO TINY ONES ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGE IS PRISTINE, WITH ALL OF THE LAMINATE FULL RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, SMOOTH WITH NO ROUGHNESS, AND PERFECT UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IMMACULATE, WITH ALL OF THE LAMINATE IN PERFECT CONDITION AND NO BLEMISHES TO THE CORNER TIPS EITHER

THE SPINE IS VERY FLAT WITH PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE, AND THE LAMINATE IS SMOOTH AND UN DAMAGED. THE SPINES ALSO HAS TAPERED ENDS WITH PERFECT UNDAMAGED TIPS

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND THIS IN ITSELF TELLS A STORY. IT IS PRETTY CLEAR  THE VINYL WAS LEFT UN-PLAYED FOR MANY YEARS

THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS AND THE WHITE POROUS SURFACE IS STILL INCREDIBLY WHITE WITH JUST A TINY SLIVER OF AGEING TO THE OPENING EDGE

THE OFTEN MISSING LYRIC INSERT SHEET IS IN CREASE FREE CONDITION, BUT DOES HAVE SOME LIGHT FOXING

THE PLAIN WHITE  INNER SLEEVE HAS ONE CORNER CREASE AND IS UNSPLIT, AND VERY WHITE

DESPITE THE SMALL BLEMISHES ON THE TOP EDGE IS AM STILL HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
