THE LABELS

THE GREEN LABELS  ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION, THE PASTEL  GREEN COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST 1 NEAR INVISIBLE TINY SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE HOLE, SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED, IN FACT NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES SINCE NEW.

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HERE LOOKS MAGNIFICENT ON BOTH SIDES AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE apart from some wispy hairlines and a couple of really fine and barely visible handling lines

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 NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB. THE CRYSTAL CLEAR INSTRUMENTATION AND VOCALS ARE PURE FIRST PRESS. THERE IS CERTAINLY NO GROOVE WEAR TO THIS RARE RECORDING WHICH WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN SOME DISTORTION TO THE SOUND. THERE IS NONE. ISLAND/CHRYSALIS  RECORDINGS HAVE LONG BEEN LAMBASTED FOR THE POOR QUALITY OF VINYL USED IN THEIR EARLY LP'S WHICH HAVE OFTEN RESULTED IN UNWANTED VINYL NOISE EVEN WHERE THERE ARE NO MARKS.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FANTASTIC, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD TO PERFECTION.

NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS

THERE IS THE ODD BIT OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD ONLY DURING SOME OF THE QUIETEST MOMENTS, AND NO MORE THAN 3-4 TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM HAPPY TO  GRADE THIS ALBUM NEAR MINT MINUS!!! 

PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE  

SINGLE SLEEVE FROM GOTHIC PRINT FINISHERS

THE FRONT SURFACE IS CLEAN AND HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS ON IT WHATSOEVER. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES , JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT CREASE LINES ACROSS THE TOP RIGHT CORNER, AND EVEN THE TINY LINES THAT USUALLY FORM NEAR THE SPINE ARE JUST THREE TINY IN NUMBER

THE TOP EDGE IS TOTALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, WHILST THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS ONLY THE VERY CORNER TIP ENDS LIGHTLY WORN

THE SPINE HAS ALL OF THE COLOURS INTACT AND IS VIRTUALLY FLAT WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY HALF SQUASHES. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND INCREDIBLY NO WEAR TO THE COLOURS APART FROM THE BAREST SPECK ON THE VERY TOP TIP END ONLY

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND UNBLEMISHED AND SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED

THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION.NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES, JUST 4 TINY LINES NEAR THE SPINE 

NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE.

THE SLEEVE  GRADES NEAR MINT MINUS WITH EASE
