MICHAEL CRAWFORD, SARAH BRIGHTMAN, STEVE BARTON & OTHERS 'THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA' 1987 X2LP.

I combine items to reduce p&p cost so if you purchase more than one item please use the 'ADD TO BASKET' button & then 'REQUEST TOTAL' and wait for my invoice before making payment. 

Pressed in the UK and released on Polydor PODV9.

 

Play grades as EX+/EX+/EX/EX+.

Play graded on a Pro-Ject Essentials III Bluetooth deck fitted with an Ortofon OM20 stylus, an Acrylic turntable mat, sent through a Naim Mu-So QB2 Wireless speaker system. 

 

Sounds great! 

On all four sides all musical and vocal passages play clearly & brightly.

 

There are no sticks, jumps or skips and no evidence of any groove wear at all. There are no clicks or tics (see side 3 comment) and only the absolute minimum of very quiet surface noise in the run in areas. 

ON SIDE 3 (From just before half way to just after half way) THERE ARE A FEW VERY QUIET TICS IN JUST A FEW GROUPS OF 2s & 3s. THEY APPEAR TO BE CAUSED  BY AN AREA OF VERY FAINT MARKS VISIBLE UNDER HALOGEN LIGHTS.

 

When tilted under normal lighting four sides appear to be unmarked.

When tilted under halogen lights three sides still appear to be unmarked. For side 3 see above. 

 

Gatefold sleeve grades as EX.

Inner sleeves grades as VG+.

Booklet grades as EX.

I USE RECORD COLLECTOR GRADINGS AND USE A +/- WHERE I FEEL THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE.

See photos.

 

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.

 

I dispatch records in brand new, bought in mailers designed for the process. Before placing in the mailer I take LPs out of the sleeve place both in a polysleeve and between two card stiffeners and if there is a picture sleeve I place the LP in a plain sleeve to prevent knifing of the picture sleeve. [all this costs £0.80/single LP].
