Description
Collectable OZ music vinyl gem – 1973 original press and the nicer gatefold cover, this record is very scratched but can still be played and enjoyed.
Billy Thorpe with Chain members; piano player extraordinaire Warren 'Pig' Morgan, plus Barry 'Big Goose' Sullivan on bass and OZ guitar legend Phil Manning. Gil Matthews on drums from The Aztecs & Coloured Balls.
Vinyl Grade: -VG, has lots of scratches that you would expect to cause surface noise that detracts from the music. Both sides have lots of long scratches but nothing real deep/bad looking.
Sound Quality: -VG in quite sections of music and intros where the surface noise detracts, VG on most tracks that have full on music where the surface noise does not overpower the great music. Most tracks can be played loud and enjoyed where the surface noise is mostly noticeable in intros. Side 2 sounds worse with crackle in intros and between tracks.
Cover: EX, excellent cover, flat, no ring wear, crisp edges with no wear apart from bottom corners.
Labels: clear, no spindle wear.
Records graded directly under very bright table light for the visual grade. Sound quality checked by playing to ensure that visual grade and sound quality are consistent.
Mint M and Near Mint NM: Looks perfect as new. N and NM is only appropriate for new reissue records and not for vintage vinyl that has been played, regardless of how perfect it may look.
Excellent Plus +EX: Lovely gloss, no visible scratches, scuffs or marks. Has been played but has been handled well and still in great condition. (highest grade that I use for vintage vinyl)
Excellent EX: Lovely gloss, shows some slight signs of wear, including light trace/hairlines from the inner sleeve, light scuffs or very light marks that you would not expect to hear as surface noise.
Very Good Plus +VG: Shows a few more very light marks than is allowable for EX so not quite EX. These signs of use would be expected to cause some light surface noise but not to detract from the music.
Very Good VG: Shows light scratches and marks and some that you would expect to cause surface noise, especially in soft passages, between tracks and during a song?s intro and ending but not so much as to overpower the music which can still be enjoyed.
Very Good Minus -VG: Shows significant wear and marks that you would expect to cause noticeable surface noise that detracts from the music.
Good G: In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up records lacking much of the original gloss and with many scratches and marks that you would expect to cause very noticeable surface noise and clicks/pops that seriously detract from enjoyment of the music.
Postage: I package very very well and only charge the actual Aust Post cost.
Pleased to combine posting: 1 record is $8.95, 2 or 3 records is $12.20, 4 records to about 9 records is $15.35.
