LIVE AID DO THEY KNOW ITS CHRISTMAS/ FEED THE WORLD 7"1984 ORIGINAL COLLECTABLE- NEAR MINT -A7
THIS IS THE RARE ONE THAT GOES BROWN WHEN YOU HOLD IT UP TO LIGHT. THE TRANSLUCENT BROWN CAN ONLY BE SEEN WHEN HELD UP TO DIRECT LIGHT. NOT ALL OF THEM DID THIS AS I HAVE TWO A7'S THE SAME AND ONLY THIS ONE LIGHTS UP! THIS IS A RARE ONE THAT CAME IN ONE SIDED CIRCLE SLEEVE, THESE  MUST HAVE BEEN A MISPRESS, WHO KNOWS HOW MANY WERE DONE IN A BATCH AS I HAVE NEVER CAME ACROSS THIS, AND NO ONE ELSE SEEMS TO HAVE AS WELL? A ITS NOT MENTIONED ANYWHERE ON ANY SITES, OR THE WHOLE INTERNET! WHICH MAKES IT RARE. 
Matrix / Runout (Variant 2 run-out matrix A-side): [lyre symbol]topia FEED 1 A⁷ MPO
PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PICTURES. NOT A LOT OF THESE ONES KICKING AROUND AT ALL.  AND NOT IN THIS CONDITION. MY CAMERA ISNT THAT GREAT. HOWEVER LOOKS BETTER WHEN YOU ARE HOLDING IT. IF YOU LOOK YOU CAN ALSO SEE MY LIGHT BULB THROUGH THE RECORD AND THE DEAD WAX-TURNS A CHOCOLATE BROWN COLOUR. LOOKS QUITE COOL!
RECORD LOOKS AS THOUGH IT'S NEVER BEN PLAYED,  ALTHOUGH MAY HAVE SOME HARLINES BUT HARD TO SEE. I HAVE PLAYED BOTH SIDES AND PLAYS REALLY WELL VERY CLEAR INDEED, AND SIDE 2 IS AMAZING AS WELL WITH ALL THE SINGERS WISHING YOU A HAPPY CHRISTMAS.NO SKIPS NO JUMPS NO POPS- DEFINITELY IN EXCELLENT++ CONDITION. I WOULD RATE IT AS NEAR MINT. THIS IS RARE TO FIND ONE OF THESE IN THIS CONDITION FROM 1984, AS THESE WERE PLAYED SO MUCH. THIS ONE HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER, OR NOT EVEN BEEN PLAYED. 
It is about almost impossible to find any non-sealed vinyl records without any hairline marks. Many of them had them from new, especially if sold with cardboard inner sleeves. They are a result of storage and use and have little impact on sound quality.

COMES IN PLAIN ORIGINAL SLEEVE, ONE SIDED CIRCLE. NOT THE PICTURE COVER, SAME RECORD THOUGH APART FROM IT'S A TRANSLUCENT VERSION. 1ST PRESSING OF BAND AID, DO THEY KNOW ITS CHRISTMAS, WITH BONO, PAUL WELLER, STING, McCARTNEY AND CO..........
MAKE A NICE CHRISTMAS GIFT AS A RARE SURPRISE VERSION.

ALL THE BEST


VINYL - EXCELLENT

COVER - VERY GOOD

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, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised, as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

 

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. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

 The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR-The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR- The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD--The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
