  • ARTIST/GROUP: TROUT FISHING IN AMERICA
    • TITLE: You Bore Me To Death
    • FORMAT: LP
    • RELEASE DATE: ca. 1979
    • LABEL/Location: Trout; (probably Houston, TX-area)
    • CATALOGUE #: None
    • LABEL DESCRIPTION: see Scan
    • COVER INFO: thick cardboard; AUTOGRAPHED
    • PRODUCER: self-produced
    • MUSICIANS: Keith Grimwood, Ezra Idlet, Rom Rosenblum
    • NUMBER OF TRACKS: 14
    • SELECTED CUTS: Eleanor Rigby; Masochism Tango; In The Night; Mr. Spaceman; Rock & Roll Woman; Lori’s Song; Ode To Big Blue; Funeral; I Got News; I Had To Tell You

    • DESCRIPTION: WOW! REMARKABLE, RARE, ECLECTIC PRIVATE-PRESS mostly ACOUSTIC FOLK-ROCK by OBSCURE band! This band is still performing (and has made quite a few CDs); but this LP is so obscure it doesn’t show up on their own website’s discography (or anywhere else on the ‘Net except a local playlist from years ago, for that matter). Homemade job on the band’s very-own label, with no catalogue number. Features COOL and STRANGE renditions of mostly cover tunes – everyone from the Beatles (Eleanor Rigby) to Tom Lehrer (Masochism Tango) to Ray Charles (I Got News For You) to 13th Floor Elevators (I Had To Tell You) – blending folk-rock with a bit of down-home blues, rural/southern and even a whimsical jazz tune ("Funeral"). And I love that WILD cartoon cover, AUTOGRAPHED by all three band members. A TOTAL GEM!

      CONDITION (See GRADING GUIDELINES below for further details)

      • LP GRADING GUIDELINES

    • Guidelines reflect TYPICAL factors determining grade - variations are noted in the description.
    • Please note I DO NOT USE EXCELLENT (EX) as a grade.
    • Please note my VG and G grades for vinyl generally are BETTER THAN GOLDMINE'S
    • Flaws for ALL covers graded VG or less, and labels graded VG+ or less, are noted in the description.
    • Vinyl graded VG or less is appropriately spot play-graded to assure sound quality.
    • Grades below G are not listed, as I typically do not sell merchandise in such condition.
    • Intermediate grades (e.g., NM-, VG/VG+, G+) are used, as applicable.

    • MINT - Factory Sealed; cover virtually flawless

    • NM+ (Near Mint Plus) - Factory sealed with minor cover flaws, OR an otherwise mint LP recently opened by me and played in spots for demonstration purposes

    • NM (Near Mint) - vinyl, cover and labels nearly flawless

    • VG+ (Very Good Plus) - what many refer to as "excellent"; pretty close to NM. Full or nearly full-gloss vinyl with a few minor surface or sleeve marks; possibly one or a couple small, light scuffs or scratches (if basically inaudible) on an otherwise NM piece. Expect minimal or very slight (at worst) surface noise in spots. Cover has very slight general wear, OR minimal wear and a couple of very minor flaws (noted as applicable in the description)

    • VG (Very Good) - Vinyl still very shiny, has a few light scuffs, sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect only slight surface noise in spots

    • VG- (Very Good Minus) - Vinyl still shiny or very shiny, has a few light scuffs, surface marks and/or small scratches, plus some sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect slight surface noise that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming.

    • G (Good) - Vinyl typically still shiny (sometimes very shiny); has some scuffs and some surface marks, generally a few or some light scratches, plus lots of sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect some surface noise throughout that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming - NO skips, sticks, heavy scuffs, deep scratches, excessive noise, or loud pops or clicks (unless noted in description)
