Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1983 MFSL RE)
1983 MFSL Original Master Recording AUDIOPHILE PRESSING on translucent (when held to light) QUIEX vinyl. Half-Speed Production and Mastering by Original Masteringworks. Specially Plated and Pressed on High Definition Super Vinyl by Victor Company of Japan Ltd.
Vinyl has several faint surface sleeve scuffs/scratches just holding grade back, nothing I can feel. Labels have a few faint spindle marks. Gatefold cover has heavy cornerwear, edgewear, seam splitting middle of top edge, ringwear/hazing and some staining/splatter at the top edge of front cover.
If you’re not familiar with QUIEX, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980’s, record companies started pressing “Quiex II” LPs primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded just as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. If too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent (when held to light) AUDIOPHILE beauty is one of those pressings!
