- DESCRIPTION: Ooooh yeah! MEGA-RARE KILLER and JAZZ-FUNK and EXPERIMENTAL ACID JAZZ by OBSCURE band on tiny indie label! With some post-bop, too. I believe this is the first - and probably the RAREST - release on this LEGENDARY Austin-Texas label (same label which pressed Austin Funk’s "Steam Heat"). And this arguably is the BEST release on the label, too! Almost all-original tunes, featuring MONSTER playing, UNIQUE arrangements (including some electrified/wah-wah horns!) and HEAVY GROOVES – loaded with BREAKS and SAMPLES! One tune ("March Of The Goober Woobers") is getting a lot of attention from DJs and is showing up on more and more playlists and want-lists – so DON’T MISS OUT!
CONDITION (See GRADING GUIDELINES below for further details)
- VINYL: Side 1: VG++/NM-; Side 2: VG/VG+ few tiny light scratches (may produce a few very-soft clicks)
- COVER: VG (some ringwear)
- LABELS: VG++/NM-
- 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) 7¼ % SALES TAX ADDED TO ITEMS SHIPPED WITHIN TEXAS.
