THE WAILERS - THE BEST OF THE WAILERS

REALLY NICE ON BEVERLY'S RECORDS

OUSTANDING SLEEVE STILL IN SHRINKWRAP

 

DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE TITLE OF THIS ALBUM IS 'THE BEST OF' THIS IN FACT WAS NOT A COMPILATION OF PAST RECORDINGS, BUT IN FACT A NEW SET OF RECORDINGS FROM 1969-70

USUALLY JAMAICIAN VINYL IS FULL OF CRACKLE, BUT THIS ONE HAS VIRTUALLY NONE, JUST SOME RANDOM TICS AND POPS

THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE MAGENTA AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION, WITH ALL OF THE COLOURS RICH AND VIBRANT. SIDE TWO HAS A LITTLE FOXING . I CAN'T SEE ANY SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE AT ALL

THE VINYL

THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT THIS LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. AND EVEN WHEN PRESENTED TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS STILL NOTHING MORE TO SEE THAT A A LITTLE PATCHY CLOUDINESS

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

IT IS CLEAR FROM THE SECOND THE STYLI HITS THE VINYL THAT THIS IS GOING TO PLAY SUPERBLY. AS I MENTIONED AT THE TOP JAMAICAN VINYL IS NOTED FOR BEING PARTICULARLY POOR AND FINDING A COPY THAT DOESN'T HAVE SERIOUS EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE IS VERY RARE. THIS HAS VIRTUALLY NONE JUST THE ODD TINY SPECK HERE AND THE, BUT CERTAINLY NOTHING TO DETRACT FROM THE MUSIC

THE MONO REPRODUCTION IS JUST AWESOME, AND BOTH LOUD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR 

THERE ARE NO LOUD CLICKS OR BACKGROUND CRACKLE ANYWHERE

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR ARE SOME RANDOM POPS / TICS. THIS DESPITE THE FACT THAT THERE ARE NO MARKS ON THE VINYL THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS. IF I HAD THE CHOICE TO HAVE EITHER VINYL NOISE OR A FEW POPS, I WOULD CHOOSE THE POPS ANYDAY

PLEASE TAKE A FULL LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE VOLUME AND MAKE YOUR OWN MIND UP

I WILL LET THE LISTENER JUDGE IT'S GRADE, BUT PLEASE COMPARE IT TO HOW JAMACIAN VINYL NORMALLY SOUNDS AND I THINK YOU WILL BE DELIGHTED

SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A FANTASTIC COPY THIS ALBUM THEN LOOK NO FURTHER

 

 

THE SLEEVE

HEAVY CARD SINGLE SLEEVE, STILL IN THE IMPORT SHRINKWRAP WHICH HAS PROTECTED THE SLEEVE FROM THE USUAL DAMAGE AND RING WEAR

THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN PERFECT CONDITION ALL ACROSS THE SURFACE, THE IMPORT STICKER HAS BEEN PLACED ON THE SHRINKWRAP SO CAN BE REMOVED IF NEEDED. THERE IS ALSO SO VISIBLE TAPE ON THE RIGHT EDGE AT THE TOP. THIS IS ALSO ON THE SHRINK AND NOT THE ACTUAL SLEEVE

THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES AGAINST ANY OF THE EDGES, AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION, WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP ENDS WHERE THE SLEEVE IS EXPOSED FROM UNDER THE SHRINK

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THERE IS A THIN CRACK TO THE PAPER AT THE BOTTOM

THE OPENING EDGE IS IN SHARP UNBLEMISHED CONDITION

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME STUNNING CONDITION AS THE FRONT. NO RING WEAR LIKE MOST COPIES

I GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS

 

 

 

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