Megaton Self Titled Lp Mega Rare Uk Deram Sml r 1086 Prog Vinyl

MEGATON - Eponymous album on DERAM.
1971 SML-R.
1086 A chance to own this mega rare edition of the album This record has been cleaned on a Clear Audio Matrix cleaning machine.
This record has been play tested on a Linn LP12 Sondek, with a Naim Aro unipivot arm, and a Dynavector 17D moving coil cartridge.
This is a very detailed system, and may pick up defects that other systems do not.
Some clicks may be due to residual dust/dirt left after the clean.
Each side was played once continuously from beginning to end.
In an effort to keep the record from any further wear, the record was not played a second time.
We have put the cleaned record in a new inner sleeve, but are also sending the one we received with the record as pictured.
SIDE 1: LEAD IN GROOVE: very minor crackle.

OUT OF YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD: minor crackle and three clicks about halfway through.

WANNA BE A HERO: slight click in pre-gap and a few slight clicks early into the track.
4.
FAIRY TALE SONG: a few light clicks 5.
COO COOKI CHOO: maybe a little groove wear/mistracking this could be due to the way the vinyl was originally cut.

CARRY IT ON TO THE END: possibly a slight bump sound about one third through.

WOMAN I M GONNA MAKE YOU MINE: slight noise in pre-gap.

TOMORROW NEVER COMES MY WAY: light clicking, plus one moderate click in the pre-gap.

VISUAL: VINYL: This album still retains a splendid shine and has very little spindle wear.
There are some feint marks on the lead in groove, and clearer wear at the very edge of the record.
There doesn t appear to be a clear visual reason for the slightly worn sound on the last track on each side.
Visually excellent, audibly somewhere between very good and excellent.
