Record 1, Side 1 Matrix: WMME Alsdorf 759 926681-1-A g (6 o’clock)

Record 1, Side 2 Matrix: WMME Alsdorf 759 926681-1-B  7 (6 o’clock)

Record 2, Side 1 Matrix: WMME Alsdorf 759 926681-1-C 3 (6 o’clock)

Record 2, Side 2 Matrix: WMME Alsdorf 759 926681-1-D (6 o’clock)     2 (12 o’clock)

The Matrix Numbers are described using a clock face. The first part is the main body of the Matrix Number. It will be at 6 o’clock if it is located in front of the label with the writing curving away from me at the ends (as I look) and at 12 o’clock if it is located behind the label with the writing curving towards me at the ends (as I look). Other times give a rough idea of where additional parts of the Matrix Number are located, in relation to the main part. It’s not meant to be foolproof, just to give an idea of where the various parts of the matrix are, in relation to each other.

Condition as follows including photographs: The sleeve is in very good condition, due to slight creasing, wear & slight discoloration. There are a few indentations to the sleeve. The inner sleeves are in very good/ very good minus condition. There is a coffee(?) stain on the Record Two inner sleeve. Record One is in very good/ very good minus condition while Record Two is in very good minus condition. There are quite a lot of paper scuffs to the surface. They are all shallow, but are quite numerous. All four sides play through well, with no jumping, skipping or sticking. The overall sound is excellent on Side One and Side Four & very good on Side Two and Side Three. There are no loud noises or clicks. There is slight surface noise intermittently throughout, mostly in quieter passages & between tracks. It is slightly more noticeable on Side Two and Side Three as some songs are quite quiet. I don’t think the sound is invasive & so would not expect it to affect your listening pleasure. I always expect some sound from records of this age & condition. See below for NOTES ON CONDITION*.

*NOTES ON CONDITION: I grade according to the Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide & will not necessarily list all individual points in the written description. There will be a blanket grade for each component (sleeve, record etc), which smaller factors fall into. The general appearance will be clearly visible in the photographs. Please study the photographs in detail as they form the bulk of the description. Please be aware that play grading is based on my interpretation of what I hear on my system only. Although it is an honest assessment, it does not automatically follow that you would reach the same conclusion when listening on your own system, as there are so many variables. I DON’T use Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide categories when play grading, just my own judgement.
