THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE SILVER AND BLACK LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE JET BLACK BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UN-RUBBED. THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE RECORD

STUNNINGLY GLOSSY LP THAT LOOKS FANTASTIC. SIMPLY SUPERB CONDITION. IN DAYLIGHT THE DISC LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND AS NEW. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF NEAR INVISIBLE SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL WISPY LINES. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE COPY OF THIS ALBUM!

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 AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD THEY ARE THINKING OF BIDDING ON.

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATES THE CRISP CLEAN STEREO REPRODUCTION. 

THE VINYL PLAYS ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES.

FOR THOSE THAT ARE FAMILIAR WITH THIS ALBUM, YOU WILL KNOW THAT ONE OF THE TRACKS 'TIL I MET YOU' IS VERY VULNERABLE AND MOST COPIES WILL SOUND DISTORTED ON THIS PARTICULAR SONG. THIS COPY HOWEVER IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THIS SONG, AND EVERY OTHER ONE AS WELL FOR THAT MATTER

YOU WILL  NOT HEAR ANY EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE. THERE IS NO CRACKLING, NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS

ZERO AUDIBLE STATIC AND NO DUST POPS 

WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE THE SOUND QUALITY OF THIS 1976 PRESS IS SIMPLY MAGNIFICENT, AND CONSIDERING IT'S 42 YEARS I AM VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO

GRADE THIS WONDERFUL VOLUME MINT!!! 

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS ALBUM FOR YOURSELF AND I SURE YOU WILL BE IN FULL AGREEMENT WITH ME.

 

THE SLEEVE

 

THIS COPY HASTHE GOLD EMBOSSED 'PROPERTY OF EMI - DEMONSTRATION ONLY - NOT FOR SALE ' WORDING EMBOSSED WITH GOLD LETTERING THE TOP LEFT CORNER ON THE REAR SURFACE

THE FRONT LAMINATED SURFACE GLEAMS LIKE NEW. IT IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES . THIS SLEEVE HAS A HISTORY OF GETTING VERY CREASED VERY EASILY, BUT THIS ONE IS IN SUPER CONDITION

THERE IS NO LAMINATE PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE ON ANY PART OF THE COVER, AND NO RINGWEAR EITHER WHICH THIS SLEEVE USUALLY SUFFERS FROM. NOT EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE 

THERE ARE JUST THREE SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, AND ONE SLIGHTLY LARGER ONE AT THE BOTTOM. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND THREE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, ONE OF WHICH RUNS ACROSS THE RIGHT CORNER TIP. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE WHICH IS ALSO A RARITY.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS THERE AND FULLY RUNS  FROM CORNER TO CORNER , WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP ENDS

THE SPINE IS STILL FULLY LAMINATED. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, WITH THE BLACK TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. 

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE NICKS

THE REAR SURFACE IS STILL INCREDIBLY WHITE. AND VERY UNUSUALLY THERE IS  NO GRUBBINESS TO THIS POROUS SURFACE, JUST A LIGHT SPECK OF HANDLING

THE GOLD EMBOSSED LETTERING IS SHARP AND CLEAR

THE ORIGINAL EMI  INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB  CONDITION. NONE OF THE SEAMS ARE SPLIT EITHER. A COUPLE OF LIGHT CORNER CREASES. A GREAT EXAMPLE

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

 

 

 

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