THE BEST OF THE BEE GEES

IN MAGNIFICENT ONCE PLAYED PLAY MINT MINUS!!! CONDITION

COMPLETE WITH A NEAR MINT !!!!  SLEEVE

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED COLOURED LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE AROUND IT .

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES. 

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.

NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS

THIS 1969 STEREO RECORDING PRODUCES A CRISP CLEAR SOUND THAT IS ALWAYS ASSOCIATED WITH FIRST PRESSES

NO MORE THAN A SPLIT SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN 2-3 TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS !!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED MACNEILL SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY  HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THE YELLOW BASE COLOUR IS PERFECTLY RICH AND VIBRANT. NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE. THE ORIGINAL SHOP PRICE STICKER IS STILL IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER AND CAN BE EASILY REMOVED IF REQUIRED

THERE ARE EIGHT REAALY SMALL AND NEAR INVISIBLE LINES BY THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE PRISTINE COLOUR ALL THE WAY ALONG THE SURFACE WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB SHOWING ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS, AND ALSO ON THE TOP LEFT TIP

THE SPINE HAS FEW LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS ON THE EDGES. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. LIKE THE FRONT NO COLOUR RUB, AND HERE THERE IS JUST TWO TINY LINES BY THE SPINE

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM HAVING THE DATE 50 9 PRINTED IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER INDICATING RELEASE YEAR OF 1969

NO SPLITS NO CREASES AND VERY CLEAN

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE NEAR MINT

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
