IRON MAIDEN - SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON

1988 UK PICTURE DISC LP

PLAYS EX+ / EX

COMPLETE WITH THE PVC BANNER

THE VINYL

HEAVY 1ST PRESS IS IN SUPERB CONDITION AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF SMALL WISPY HAIRLINES 

THE COLOURS ON THIS DISC ARE DEEP RICH AND VIBRANT AND THE VINYL HAS NOT DISCOLOURED

THE TEST PLAY

THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERBLY AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO PRESS THE AUDIO BUTTONS AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE TO HEAR IT 

FIRSTLY THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS CRISP AND CLEAR, AND CLEAN

THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER

AT THE START OF EACH SIDE THERE IS A LITTLE LIGHT BACKGROUND BUT IT SOON DISSAPPEARS AND IS ONLY REALLY AUDIBLE IN SOME OF THE EARLY LINKING GROOVES AND SILENT PASSAGES.

PICTURE DISCS ARE NEVER OF THE SAME QUALITY AS THE STANDARD VINYL RELEASES

THERE ARE A FEW TICS AND POPS ON SIDE TWO AND A SMALL SCRATCH ON THE PENULTIMATE TRACK CAUSES SOME ROTATIONAL TICS
LOUD AND POWERFUL STEREO SOUND

A VERY CLEAR AND CLEAN AUDIO

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC EX+ / EX FOR THE AUDIO

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORK FOR IT, PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT BY YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

THIS IS A STANDARD PVC SLIPCASE
NO SEAM SPLITS TO THIS CASE
THE CARD INSERT IS IN  CLEAN UNCREASED CONDITION

THE BANNER IS IN PERFECT CONDITION AND SITS INSIDE THE SMALL PVC BAG
