IN MAGNIFICENT ONE PLAY MINT MINUS !!! CONDITION

COMPLETE WITH  A STUNNING MINT !!!!  SLEEVE

FINAL UPGRADE

 TO LISTEN TO THE RECORD, PLEASE PRESS PLAY ON THE PLAYER, AND WAIT FOR IT TO LOAD. IT CAN TAKE UP TO A MINUTE. THE NEW SOFTWARE IS SLOWER THAN THE OLDER ONE. BY THE TIME YOU HAVE READ THROUGH THE DESCRIPTION IT SHOULD START TO

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

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

THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE ARE ONLY 1-2  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 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.

THIS ALBUM SOUNDS SPECTACULAR. THE AUDIO IS 'AS NEW'

THE RECORD 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 IN A FEW OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES

I DIDN'T HEAR AND DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS

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

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE THIS IS UP FOR GRABS, AND I BELIEVE IT CAN BE CONSIDERED A FINAL UPGRADE COPY

THE SLEEVE

GLOSSY NON-LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE. 

THIS SLEEVE HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PVC GATEFOLD OUTER FROM THE DAY OF PURCHASE WHICH IS WHY IT HAS REMAINED IN PRISTINE CONDITION

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECTLY SQUARE

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE, FRONT OR BACK

THE TOP EDGES ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE DELICATE BROWN COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITH EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED. 

THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE  IDENTICAL 

THE SPINE IS IN FLAT AND UNSQUASHED CONDITION. ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE AND FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE PRISTINE

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

THE REAR SURFACE IS ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE AND EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS THE FRONT.NO PRESSURE LINES ON ANY OF THE EDGES, AND PRISTINE INKS

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO ABSOLUTELY MINT CONDITION INNER PANELS
