I hear you asking, what on earth is NUDE VINYL?!?!
I am sorting through a large amount of vinyl (finally after 100+ days of Covid-19 lockdown I can get access to them again!) and I have a number of interesting albums that some low life has taken the cover off (and removed record #1) and not returned either!
Nude means exactly this ...
Vinyl record, exactly as described below
New inner plastic liner sleeve
New outer white cardboard sleeve (completely unmarked)
New outer protective sleeve
I know the covers and the pictures on albums are what makes vinyl so much fun and interesting but it's also about the music ... this offering is just the music and no pretty/interesting pictures or information (other than that on the record label)
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
Warner Brothers Records
Cat# BSK 3010
1977
Australian release
White generic cover is brand new, unmarked and no damage
New inner plastic liner sleeve
Vinyl record is in good condition, visually inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see just a couple of very light marks or scratches on either side. I then played both sides ENTIRELY, every single track, and listened carefully. The underlying surface noise is slightly elevated to "normal" (indicating another good clean could improve this) but no significant issues with clicks/pops. I did notice a very slight "wave" which is more apparent playing Side B but it is not a significant issue, you just notice that the vinyl is not dead flat on the mat but it does not cause any issues on playback. A really really nice album from Fleetwood
