THE RECORD PLAYS AS NEAR MINT

side 2 nm side 1 needs clean & some work on it


This pressing plays with superb audio across both sides and has been so well preserved down the years.
It can only have been played sparingly which is how it has retained its original sonic quality.
It is easily one of the finest examples I have heard and seen.
The vinyl is visually stunning, it just could not look any better, and the previous owner clearly handled them with extreme care.

The same applies to the cover which is also in fantastic condition with no obvious wear.
It truly is a fantastic example. No creases,marks or writing on it and only a trace of a corner bump

The opening has no feathering, top and bottom seams as new and the spine is straight and true
ith clear and undamaged print.

The audio on Side 1 is Near Mint
The audio on Side 2 is Near Mint
The labels are Near Mint (see photos for close ups).

Visual grading

The vinyl is in beautiful condition and has an immaculate jet-black glossy sheen with no marks or scratches.
At first glance you would think they were brand new such is the stunning visual quality.
The run out grooves are unmarked and the labels are also super clean with no marking and NO spindle marks showing how little usage this LP has had.

Play grading

The intro on "Soft As Snow" plays with incredible clarity, there is no static, and then plays 'as new'.
This is Near Mint without doubt. The run-in and run-out are silent.
The start of "Loose My Breath" again has no background and then plays with outstanding clarity
for the remainder. Another Near Mint track. The run-in and run-out are silent. Soundless.
"Cupid Come" provides more evidence of a vinyl that has been so well preserved.
This is a quiet track and yet there is not even a single dust tick let alone anything worse!
This is audio of the highest calibre and Near Mint is easily deserved. The run-in and run-out are silent.

You're Still In A Dream", "All I Need" and "No More Sorrow" finish side 1 and play to perfection.
There is no background static and again the clarity cannot be faulted. Near Mint. Again silent run-in and run-out

The intro on 'Feed Me With Your KIss" has no background and the opening vocal is so clean.
From then it plays beautifully with a clarity of sound that is STUNNING!
As per all the other tracks the sonic quality is so impressive and if anyone told you this side
had never been been played before you would believe them!
"Sueisfine" provides more evidence of a vinyl that has been so well preserved.
The beginning of "Several Girls" is faultless. It just plays beautifully from start to finish with no intrusion.
Again silent run-in and run-out.
"You Never Should" ,"Nothing Much To Lose" and the final track "I Can See It" finish side 2 and play
with not only silently but also silent run-ins & run-outs.

As always I have played every track in full. I cannot emphasise enough just how strong and clear the audio is, the playback is stunning.
As stated in my introduction the previous owner really knew how to look after his LPs and this may be one of the best of the bunch!
