This auction is for the vinyl LP - ELTON JOHN - MADMAN ACROSS THE WATER. 1971 LP DJM RECORDS - STEREO - DJLPH.420. BRILLIANT LP, IN A BEAUTIFUL CONDITION, TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH THE BOOKLET STILL ATTACHED INSIDE, WITH THE LP BEING ON THE TRANSLUCENT RED VINYL THAT WAS AROUND AT THE TIME. MATRIX NUMBERS; SIDE 1: DJLPH 420-A1, with what also appears to be a feint 9 and a H, SIDE 2: DJLPH 420 B4, with what also appears to be a feint BT and a 2 and Rasputin. ( Please see label close-ups for track listings etc ). Please note - I play all my records, both sides, to check for any defects, I will mention anything I notice in the condition report. Listened using my mid-range Audio Technica ATLP 120 deck with an Ortofon cartridge. PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE ALBUMS..
Condition: The TEXTURED GATEFOLD picture sleeve and BOOKLET inside = excellent. The spine is strong and clear. There is NO record break-through to the edges. Overall the cover = excellent condition. The labels = excellent condition. I have played both sides of this album and they play great. The TRANSLUCENT RED has a few very light marks / hairlines, o/w the vinyl = excellent condition. Overall a great, enjoyable listen, with NO sticks or jumps. Please note, any white flashes or shadows on my pictures are usually from the spot lights I use for photographing things, or the sun (if it's out), they do not appear on the actual cover or vinyl....
Where appropriate, the record will be taken out of its picture sleeve ( or inner sleeve if applicable ) to prevent record breakthrough damage to the original sleeve whilst in transit, it will still remain in a protective paper sleeve. The item will then be put into a new Covers 33 400g poly protective cover to keep it safe. All my records are sent out in a strong cardboard package marked '' vinyl records - please do not bend '' + '' fragile ''. When grading my records I use the Record Collector Magazines grading guide: Mint = Brand new condition. Excellent = The record will show some signs of being played, but very little lessening in sound quality. The cover etc. may have slight wear or creases. Very good = The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major sound deterioration, despite noticeable surface marks / light scratches. The cover would have normal wear and tear - no major defects unless mentioned. Each description might be tweaked with a + or - . I play all my records and will mention anything noticeable.
