Vinyl: JANOS STARKER 'A CELLO RECITAL' RARE COLUMBIA 33CX 1700 BLUE/GOLD ED1 EX/NM

JANOS STARKER/GERALD MOORE ' A CELLO RECITAL'. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL AND RARE UK, COLUMBIA PRESSING 33CX 1700 ON BLUE/GOLD LABEL (ED1). MY OWN PERSONAL COPY AND IN SUPERB CONDITION...STRICTLY PLAYGRADED...TWICE!!

SLEEVE: STRONG 'EX'. INTACT FLIP-BACKS. NO TEARS AND NO WRITING. VERY LIGHT STORAGE WEAR AND A SMALL (LESS THAN) 1CM SCUFF, BOTTOM RIGHT OF SLEEVE (SEE PHOTO). NOT SPLIT! NO SEAM SPLITS. VERY MINOR DISCOLOURATION TO REAR.

DISC:

A-SIDE 'EX++' . NO SCRATCHES...NO SKIPS...NO JUMPS. EXCELLENT CLARITY THROUGHOUT AND STILL RETAINING A LOVELY, GLOSSY SHEEN TO VINYL. THERE IS A TINY LITTLE AUDIBLE SURFACE NOISE AT BEGINNING, NOT IN ANY WAY AFFECTING PLAY AND SETTLES OUT AFTER JUST A FEW ROTATIONS. NO CLICKING AND NO LOUD POPPING....NO RAISED EYEBROWS!! OVERALL , THE BACKGROUND/SURFACE NOISE IS OF AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT THIS IS (FOR THE MOST PART) SOLO CELLO! AND THERE IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE SOME SURFACE NOISE.

B-SIDE: 'EX++ TO 'NM'. AS ABOVE BUT WITHOUT THE FEW SECONDS AT THE BEGINNING OF A LITTLE LIGHT SURFACE NOISE. PLAYS ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT INTERRUPTION AND NO CLICKS OR POPS. NO JUMPS.TOP CLARITY HAVING HAD LITTLE PLAY.

I'VE NEVER CLEANED THIS LP AND I THINK THAT THE ULTRA LIGHT AND MINIMAL SURFACE SOUND WOULD BE TOTALLY RESOLVED WITH A CLEAN.

LABELS: NM TO MINT. SEE PHOTOS FOR ALL OF THE ABOVE. ULTRA LIGHT SPINDLE WEAR.

SUMMARY. A NICE COPY. NICE SLEEVE WITH SUPERFICIAL STORAGE WEAR. THE RECORD ITSELF IS A DELIGHT. WONDERFUL SHEEN AND NO SCRATCHES OR SCUFFS. COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT HAIRLINES....NOT AFFECTING PLAY. MINIMAL BACKGROUND/SURFACE NOISE...TOP CLARITY ALL ROUND.
