boba Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 This is actually a clean copy. Selling this in demand Chicago modern 45 at a low price due to a weird problem with the record that does not affect play (read description) and because I'm trying to move it quickly. This is a copy of Lust "I love you still" / "I like spending time with you" on Ca$h. The actual vinyl is very clean, VG+ to VG++. However, there is a very weird problem with the record that clearly happened at pressing time and that I've never seen before. The vinyl is covered on both sides with weird non-uniform bumps which are large in area but very small in height. They are not high enough to possibly cause skips on any turntable, the needle lightly moves up and down (on another turntable I couldn't even see the needle move up and down at all). It is NOT heat damage, if you see the record you will see it only could have happened at pressing time (e.g. it needed extra vinyl material to come out this way). As far as I can tell they don't affect play at all, here is full 256kbs stereo audio of both sides: https://www.divshare.com/download/21480117-256 The bumps do not show up in scans. here are scans of both sides. https://s982.beta.photobucket.com/user/sittinginthepark/media/lust-a_zpsd2e78bde.jpg.html https://s982.beta.photobucket.com/user/sittinginthepark/media/lust-b_zps587647cf.jpg.html I am really bad at photography and despite everything I tried, I was unable to take a picture of the bumps. I did take some video of the record playing, which I was hoping would make the bumps visible. It doesn't but you can see the needle move lightly up and down: https://www.divshare.com/download/21480510-edc $300. $2 shipping to the US, $7 overseas. Paypal only.

Hi Bob I've seen those little blister type bumps a few times on 45's ..they never usually cause any probs ,but sometimes cause the needle to nervously ride over them ,with the fear theyre gonna cause a jump..but never do I always assumed they were caused by air getting trapped underneath the vinyl during the pressing Oddly ,the only time ive seen it is usually on new shiny looking records ? Nice choon and a bargain price for someone me thinks

Nice choon and a bargain price for someone me thinks I've seen many thousands of 45s and never seen this. I guess it could be air but if that were the case it must be trapped deep in the center because the vinyl is pretty solid. I wish I could take a picture to show it.

I had a copy of William Cummings and he bubbles were not tiny ,infact quite big ! I've got another here with me now and im gonna see if i can take a pic rather than a scan as it won't show in scan .

boba Posted December 19, 2012 Author Posted December 19, 2012 that pic looks like something like dust or something got embedded under the grooves (which is what someone else suggested to me) and there are spikes coming out of the record, which I'm sure pop when the needle goes over them. That's not what this record looks like at all. they are like very wide (but not tall at all) sand dunes or something. it's a clean record with a bizarre pressing defect that doesn't affect play.
