VINYL IN AWESOME CONDITION! !!!

 ABSOLUTELY AWESOME AUDIO THROUGH OUT NEAR MINT ON MY SYSTEM !! 

This audio was faultless on my system throughout graded as near mint! (no) clicks ,pops, at all,just Crystal clear and very vibrant! Earliest for the best audio!! 

The Vinyl  Excellent ++

On initial visual inspection the playing surface looks awesome, Glossy mirror finish with just one or two very feint unfeelable hairlines. Any marks that could possibly be seen under a strong would be caused by the vinyl been slid in and out of its sleeve! Importantly There is NO needle scratches or audio sounding marks that I heard at all  !!!!! 

SUPER LOOKING CONDITION , !!!!

The Audio Quality NEAR MINT

I have played this through track for track at very loud volume on a top REGA system,  the audio is awesome! 

Cristal clear and vibrant through out, with (no) distortion or any signs of groove wear at all  !!!! 

Certainly (no) clicks pops or jumps!!  As good as it gets in my opinion!! 

THIS AUDIO IS RATED AT THE VERY TOP ON ALL FREQUENCIES! 

GRADED AS NEAR MINT!! 

UNBELIEVABLE FOR A VINYL THAT IS 43 YEARS OLD!!!!! 

IN MY OPINION THESE ORIGINAL PRESSINGS PRODUCE THE BEST AUDIO QUALITY CAN NOT BE SURPASSED BY LATER PRESSINGS !!!

The Labels:  MINT

These are superb ! ONLY ONE FAINT SPINDLE LINE can be seen only on each side,angled in strong light.

Confirming this has definitely been played ONCE or TWICE ONLY !!!  For a vinyl that is 39 years old , AMAZING !!

Please note! i am highly critical about the audio quality on my records as it is my prime interest above rarity! This plays awesome you will not be disappointed, also this being the 1st and very early is highly collectible and sought after!!!
