THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE ARE ONLY 1-2 TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.

THE VINYL

THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES.

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

THERE ARE SO MANY QUIET PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM THAT TO FIND ONE THAT DOESN'T PLAY WITH CRACKLE, CLICKS AND POPS IS A REAL RARITY

THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE, AND ONLY A LITTLE BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC AT THE START OF EACH SIDE FOR A FEW ROTATIONS

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN ONE TINY LITTLE  DUST POP THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS!!!

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

 

 

THE SLEEVE

THIS IS JUST ABOUT THE BEST EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE I HAVE COME ACROSS 

GLOSSY NON-LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED.

THE INKS ARE DEEP, RICH AND VIBRANT

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECT

INCREDIBLY THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE THE SPINE ,ONE MINUSCULE ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE, FRONT OR BACK, JUST ONE NEAR INVISIBLE LINE INDENT NEAR THE BAND NAME

THE TOP EDGES ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITH EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE IN THE SAME STUNNING CONDITION 

THE SPINE IS IN FLAT AND UNSQUASHED CONDITION. ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE AND FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE RED TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.THIS IS IMMACULATE

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

THE REAR SURFACE IS ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE AND EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS THE FRONT.

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO ABSOLUTELY MINT INNER PANELS

THE BLACK POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN  MINT  CONDITION. NO MARKS, STAINS, SPLITS OR HEAVY CREASES.
