THE RECORDS

THE LABELS
THE RED AND PLUM LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE WHITEBAND IS STILL WHITE AND NOT SOILED AT ALL. ALTHOUGH THERE IS A REALLY TINY AMOUNT OF COLOUR BLEED ON SIDE A, AND A LITTLE PATCH OF RUB TO THE ORANGE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST 1-2 SPIDER LINES BY EACH HOLE SHOWING WHY THIS VINYL IS IN THE CONDITION THAT IT IS
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS AS CLEAN AND MARK FREE AS YOU COULD WANT.EVEN WHEN PUT UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, A PERFECT MINT CONDITION DISC
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 JUST KNOW THAT POTENTIAL BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, AND WHILST THIS TAKES ME FAR LONGER TO COMPLETE, I AM CONVINCED THE EFFORT IS WORTH IT
THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTOTION ANYWHERE, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FIRST PRESS ALL THE WAY. JUST CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE, NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
ALL I HEARD WAS A LITTLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND TOWARDS THE END OF EACH SIDE, AND THIS IS VERY MINOR, AND A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC TICS THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS CLASSIC ALBUM AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED AND HEAVILY TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM E.J DAY AND CO.
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE TO FIND IN A REAL COLLECTIBLE CONDITION BECAUSE THE TEXTURED SURFACE IS SO EASILY WORN THROUGH, AND MOST COPIES LOOK TERRIBLE. AND THE SPINE IS USUALLY BATTERED BEYOND RECOGNITION.
I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THERE MIGHT BE A TEMPTATION WITH SOME PEOPLE TO PUT A NEWER SLEEVE WITH THE ORIGINAL VINYL, AND WHILST THEY LOOK AND FEEL ALMOST IDENTICAL, THE CATALOGUE NUMBER ON THE SPINE WILL GIVE THE GAME AWAY. IT MUST BE 588189. THE REISSUE SLEEVES HAD THE KINNEY 'K' CATALOGUE NUMBER.
THIS SLEEVE IS THE BEST CONDITION I HAVE EVER SEEN A COPY IN!!!
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS SUSTAINED ZERO!!! COLOUR LOSS , AND THE TEXTURED SURFACE IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND ALSO NO RECORD SHAPE.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND INCREDIBLY NONE OF THE SMALL LINES THAT GATHER NEAR THE SPINE EITHER
NONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALSO TEXTURED AND AGAIN MOST COPIES WILL BE THREADBARE, BUT THIS COPY IS NEAR PERFECT WITH JUST A MINUSCULE SPECK OF RUB TO THE CORNER TIP ENDS
THE SPINE IS VERY FLAT WITH PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE, AND LIKE THE REST OF THE SLEEVE THE TEXTURED SURFACE IS NEAR PERFECT, WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE TIP ENDS, AND USING A MACRO CAMERA TO TAKE THE PICTURES. I SAW A TINY SLIVER OF WHITE ON THE BOTTOM LEADING EDGE, WHICH WAS AND IS INVISIBLE TO MY NAKED EYE
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP, AND THIS IN ITSELF TELLS A STORY. IT IS PRETTY CLEAR THE VINYL WAS LEFT UNPLAYED FOR MANY YEARS
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS SPECIAL AS THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE INNER SURFACE
THE 2 PAGE LYRIC INSERT SHEET IS IN MINT CONDITION
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. IT IS UNCREASED AND UNSPLIT, ANOTHER SIGN THAT THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN OUT SIDE OF THE SLEEVE. JUST A TRACE OF AGING TO THE EDGES

HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE MINT MINUS

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