Description
Danny Gatton may very well be the very best guitarist that the majority of guitar music fans have never heard of. In fact, he’s been called “The world’s greatest unknown guitarist”. He was also know as the “Telemaster” because his guitar of choice was the Telecaster. Rolling Stone magazine placed him in their top 100, and Gibson placed him in their top 30. What made him special was his unique style. He blended so many types of music to create a very special sound. This was his third album. If you haven’t heard him, just YouTube him and check out his extraordinary skills and the speed and dexterity with which he played. Or – just listen to this album. It’s an incredible collection of guitar instrumentals that will just astound you. The album was released on NRG in 1987, number NLP-02479. This is the original release of the album. The vinyl is in beautiful – almost pristine – condition with its bright original luster and just a couple of very small, barely discernible, fingernail scratches. It plays with virtually no background noise. The vinyl grades a strong VG+. The album cover shows no sign of ring wear and no corner or edge wear. All seams are clean, sharp, tight, and intact. The cover grades NM.

Grading Information
I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay. I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible. I will do both a visual check and an audio check. I will say that when it comes to the letter grade my inclination is always to give more preference to the sound of the record. I’ve seen many records that had a few light scuffs so the vinyl did not look beautiful, but the album played like new. In this case I may grade the vinyl as high as VG+. And I have also seen records where the vinyl looked pristine, but upon playing I was hearing static or other background noise throughout. At best that vinyl would be rated VG. The only time I would rate an album as NM is when it looks and plays as though it is brand new. I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can. I don’t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive.I only use three grades in my grading: NM, VG+, and VG. The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means, as noted above, that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but plays less than perfect. It may have a pop here and there, or either some occasional or even light consistent background noise. The key is that, in my opinion, the album will be one you will be proud to have in your collection and will always enjoy hearing. VG is the lowest grade I use, and granted, this is very subjective. I will never sell an album that I would not play again myself. That’s why I listen to every record I list. I’ve thrown out quite a few albums that I wouldn’t want to say I sold. Still, there are albums that play well but just have a little more than that typical level of noise. They sound good, and I’m confident you’ll still enjoy the music. But you should expect to hear some distracting noise here and there.
Shipping Information – Combined Shipping
Shipping is $4.00 in the continental U.S. I happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost. In fact, I welcome it! The $4.00 cost for U.S. shipping applies regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period.Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates. Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. The first album will be shipped for $12. Additional albums will be shipped for $2 per album, with up to five albums able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.
The Canada cost determination also applies for all other International shipping, except that the first album is shipped for $18 and each subsequent is an additional $2.50.
All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening. The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve. I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments. If I receive payment before 1:00 CT I will package and ship that same day. Payment by Paypal is preferred.
Thanks for looking and please contact me with any questions.
