DEPECHE MODE Construction Time Again
THIS IS DEPECHE MODE, AND THEIR TOTALLY UNIQUE SOUND, AND THEIR 3rd ALBUM, RELEASED ON 22nd AUGUST 1983 !!!! THEY WERE FORMED IN BASILDON, ESSEX, IN ENGLAND IN 1980, AND ARE ONE OF THE BEST BANDS FROM THAT ERA. THIS PLAYS OUTSTANDING AND CERTAINLY WILL NOT DISAPPOINT, AND IT COMES FROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL  1983 UK 1ST PRESS  :: STUMM 13  A1  timtom-cbs  ::  STUMM 13  B2  TY-cbs .

ON THE MUTE RECORDS LABEL :: STUMM 13 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH JUST SOME TINY SPOTS OF LIGHT RUB, AND NOTHING SERIOUS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE IS A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND SOME SMALL CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THERE IS A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ALONG THE TOP ON THE FRONT, AND A FAINT TINY STICKER RESIDUE MARK TOP RIGHT CORNER, ONLY SEEN WHEN THE COVER IS ANGLED A CERTAIN WAY. THERE IS A FAINT RUB MARK ON THE BACK TOP RIGHT CORNER, AND AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE :: VG+ .  

VINYL :: THE AUDIO PLAYS BRILLIANT AND CERTAINLY WILL NOT DISAPPOINT I CAN ASSURE YOU OF THAT, WITH JUST A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START ON TRACK 1, ON SIDE 1, BUT THERE ARE SOME FAINT AND LIGHT TICKS ON THE VERY SHORT HIDDEN TRACK AT THE END OF SIDE 2, AFTER LAST TRACK, "AND THEN..." WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW !!!!

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS LOVELY, AND ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE A FEW FAINT HARMLESS COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A COSMETIC HARMLESS HAIRLINE ON TRACK 1, ON SIDE 1.

AS MENTIONED THERE ARE SOME FAINT AND LIGHT TICKS ON THE VERY SHORT HIDDEN TRACK AT THE END OF SIDE 2. THERE ARE FOUR FAINT TICKS AT THE START AND SOME MORE, AND A FEW LIGHT TICKS AT THE END, AND INTO THE RUN OFFS. TO GIVE YOU  THE BEST AUDIO GRADE, I WILL HAVE TO SPLIT THE GRADES, SO.....

SIDE 1, AND ALL OF SIDE 2, UP TO THE SHORT HIDDEN TRACK, AFTER THE LAST TRACK, "AND THEN...", I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: EX+/NEAR MINT .   BUT I WILL SAY MUCH CLOSER TO NEAR MINT, AND AGAIN NO WAY OVER GRADED !!!!

THE SHORT HIDDEN TRACK AT THE END OF SIDE 2, AFTER THE LAST TRACK, "AND THEN...", I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: VG .   IT IS ONLY A SHORT TRACK AND AT THE VERY END, BUT IT IS A SHAME BECAUSE THE REST OF THE LISTED TRACKS PLAY OUTSTANDING !   

LABELS ::  NICE AND CLEAN :: EX .  

ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER ::  NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, NICE AND CLEAN, WITH SOME LIGHT SURFACE CREASING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL :: EX/EX- .  

ANOTHER DEPECHE MODE CLASSIC, AND AN ORIGINAL 1983 UK 1ST PRESS !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!! ROSE.

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
