THE LABELS

THE WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. DEEP RICH  COLOUR THAT FULLY RUNS INTO THE SPINDLE HOLE 

THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS IMMACULATE - NO RUBBING

THERE  ARE JUST 2-3 SMALL SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING THAT THE LP HAS LITTLE PLAY


THE RECORD

SUPERB HEAVYWEIGHT GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS

 UNDER SPOTLIGHTS  ALL I SEE ARE A COUPLE OF ULTRA FINE SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES

TRULY A FANTASTIC BARELY PLAYED AND MARK FREE VINYL


PLAYING THE RECORD


THIS ALBUM PLAYS CLEANLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES, WITH A CLEAN SHARP STEREO SOUND THAT IS LOUD AND POWERFUL

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO SKIPS OR STICKS OR JUMPS

SUPERB CLEAR VOCALS

ALL I HEARD WAS A LITTLE OCCASIONAL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A FEW OF THE LINKING GROOVES

AND A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS

IT IS AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE AND WOULD GRACE ANY COLLECTION

  I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT 


  

THE SLEEVE 

NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE BY MACNEILL PRESS

THE PASTEL GREENS AND BLUES ON THE FRONT SURFACE ARE IN IMMACULATE CONDITION

NO RUBBING AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

THE FOUR CORNERS HAVE A TINY SPECK OF RUB ON THE TIP ENDS

THERE ARE THREE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE

NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE  ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE  OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGES ARE FULLY COLOURED WITH A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGE ARE IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND SQUASH FREE. PRISTINE TYPEFACE, WITH A LITTLE RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS

THE OPENING EDGE STILL  RAZOR SHARP

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT

OPENING THE GATEFOLD SHOWS A LITTLE STORAGE FOXING ON THE WHITE SURFACES
