Description
DEEP PURPLE - MACHINE HEAD
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Gt.BRITAIN
YEAR : 1972
LABEL: EMI - TPSA 7504
MATRIX: Side 1) A - 1U Side 2) B - 3
VINYL RECORD - VISUAL & AUDIO: EX+/EX+ : Obviously been played before - however the record appears to be in excellent condition - an excellent plus grade for visual. Overall sound quality is also excellent - an excellent plus grade for audio.
OUTER GATE-FOLD COVER: EX- : Outer sleeve appears to be in excellent condition - however inside the cover there appears to be a few small tear marks along the lower seam - I suspect that at some time or another the two sides of the gate-fold sleeve have stuck together and were then gently pulled apart - its light damage but nothing too serious on an otherwise excellent looking cover (see photos) - hence the excellent minus grade.
INNER SLEEVE: EX : Original EMI plain paper inner sleeve..
LYRICS SHEET : EX+ : Original lyrics sheet - excellent plus grade.
Vinyl Record Grading System
So as to try and avoid disappointment I play all records before listing them and attempt to grade them as conservatively as I can using the following guide - however please remember that some vinyl records regardless of condition can still have an occasional tiny tic :-
MINT (M):
The record itself will be unplayed and in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster will be in perfect condition.
NEAR MINT (NM):
The record will appear like new but will be known to have been played before because it has come from
a previous owner and the record will therefore be assumed to have been played by them - the label might have some light spindle marks. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster will be in near perfect condition.
EXCELLENT (EX):
The record might show some signs of having been played before and there may be some infrequent light surface/background noise and/or some occasional light ticks during playback but there will be very little lessening in sound quality and overall still a great copy. The cover and packaging will have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG):
The record will obviously have been played many times before, it may have some obvious light background noise (crackles/ticks) but no real major deterioration in sound quality, despite any noticeable surface marks or the occasional light scratch. The cover will have normal wear and tear also on any extra items, without any major defects, is also acceptable.
GOOD (G):
The record will have been played so much that the sound quality will have noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some
distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents will suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
For any records that appear to fall between the above grades a plus (+) or minus (-) sign will be added to try and provide a more accurate grading.
