THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO MARKS OR STAINS AND A COLOUR THAT FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED

THE VINYL 

THE SURFACE IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS  FLAWLESS, AND GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.

UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO. I SEE A FEW TINY WISPY HAIRLINESD AND THAT'S ALL

PLAYING THE RECORD

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY. THE REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AND A CRACKING DISTORTION AND CRACKLE FREE PERFORMANCE.

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO LOUD POPS OR CLICKS 

ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY WERE A FEW SPECKS OF VERY LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND AND A FEW RANDOM LITTLE DUST / STATIC TICS 

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THIS SUPERB PRESSING AND BE THE JUDGE AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS DEEP RICH COLOURS
