CONDITION:
See picture of labels for Song Titles.
Pre-Tested for Sound Quality. The record has some light scratches and stuffs that have minimal effect on the quality of the sound. A few low level ticks and crackle, just background vinyl noise. I noticed this on side 1 tracks 3 and 5 and side 2 track 2. This is typical of a good used record where dynamics of the music over power background except on the quieter passages and between tracks. Overall I found the sound pleasant.
Even with the few defect the sound quality is better than reissues. I rate the record VG+. The cover surface is in VG+ condition with slight surface wear. There is some edge wear. I rate as Very Good+.
Description of quality of record and cover. (I include details about condition of vinyl and cover. The grading is conservative.
All records are viewed under halogen light after cleaning on a VPI wet vac cleaning machine using Audio Intelligence cleaning solution and Ultra-pure water raise. All Items have been carefully played on a Clearaudio Performance turntable with a Dynavector XX Mark2 Cartridge.
We treat grading very seriously and use the Record Collector grading scale with the addition of a (+) or (– ) to denote a slight increase or decrease in condition.
Please take the time to study the pictures and note my grading scale below
Grading Guide:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklets etc are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
NEAR MINT: Very close to Mint with only the slightest signs of play and the very lightest paper chaffing only to the surfaces of the record. The cover shows only the very slightest wear
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. A few ticks may be heard during quiet parts and between tracks. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
