THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE DEEP RED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS IMMACULATE AND UNWORN. SO IS THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S . THE COLOURS RUN FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE WHERE THERE ARE 10-15 SMALL SPIDER LINES VISIBLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION IT SHOWS THAT IT HAS BEEN PLAYED SUFFICIENTLY OVER THE YEARS TO SHOW MANY LIGHT SURFACE WISPY HAIRLINES, PLUS A FEW HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES AND A COUPLE IF TINY SCUFFS

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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS IN THE FIRM BELIEF THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH REALLY WELL ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THE FIRST THING TO MENTION IS THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO SOUND. THERE IS NO DISTORTION AND THE AUDIO IS BOTH LOUD AND FREE FROM ANY GROOVE WEARNOISE

NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

YOU WILL HEAR SOME LIGHT OCCASIONAL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND BEHIND THE MUSIC, AND IN ADDITION RANDOM LITTLE TICS AND POPS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EX TO EX+

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS 

THE SLEEVE

TEXTURED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SING LE SLEEVE WITH REAR FLIPBACKS

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES. THE BLACK TEXTURED SURFACE DOES SHOW SOME LIGHT PATCHY RUBBING AROUND THE EDGES AND RECORD SHAPE. THE CORNERS ALSO DISPLAY SOME RUBBING

THERE ARE FOUR REALLY TINY PRESSURE LINES LINES CLOSE TO  THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE EITHER. ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE TOP EDGE HAS MOST OF THE SURFACE COVERED IN THE BLACK BASE COLOUR WITH JUST THE TWO CORNERS SHOWING SOME RUBBING

THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS SHELF RUB ALONG MOST OF THE SURFACE EXPOSING THE WHITE UNDER CARD

THE SPINE ALSO HAS RUBBING TO THE SURFACE AND THE TYPEFACE IS DIFFICULT TO READ BUT YOU CAN STILL MAKE OUT ALL OF THE WORDING

THE OPENING EDGE HAS SOME SMALL PATCHES OF BURRING, AND A TINY TEAR ON THE REAR EDGE

THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS, WHICH ALSO HAVE SOME RUBBING TO THE ORIGINAL BLACK SURFACE

THE LYRIC INSERT HAS A COUPLE OF LIGHT CREASE LINES AND A FEW TINY MARKS

THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE HAS A LITTLE AGEING AND MARKS AND RECORD SHAPE, BUT REMAINS FREE FROM SEAM SPLITS

I GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX

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