FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING
SUPERB EX AUDIO
BEAUTIFUL EX SLEEVE
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. UNMARKED DEEP COLOUR, NO DISCOLOURING AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND CLEAR. THERE ARE JUST TWO VISIBLE AND TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM HAVING RETAINED ALL OF IT S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. THERE IS ONE SMALL SCRATCH AT THE END OF THE PENULTIMATE TRACK ON SIDE TWO SEE PICS AND OTHER THAN THIS IN DAYLIGHT THIS LOOKS FLAWLESS AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING HELO THERE ARE JUST SOME SMALL EMBEDDED DULL STREAK LINES WHICH ARE NON SOUNDING
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES
THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUBLIME, WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.
YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW BAD THIS COULD SOUND AS IT IS JUST A FEMALE VOCAL ACCOMPANIED BY AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR. THIS COPY PLAYS NEAR PERFECT THROUGHOUT
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THIS HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
ALL YOU WILL HEAR IS AN OCCASIONAL SPECK OF LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND AND A FEW RANDOM STATIC TICS OR DUST TICS
THERE IS A SMALL MARK AT THE END OF TRACK FIVE ON SIDE TWO THAT CAUSES ABOUT 10 LIGHT ROTATIONAL TICS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS AUDIO EX
TAKE A LISTEN AND GRADE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH
