Description

The Tribe - Sing The Creative Genius Of Lennon McCartney

Pickwick SPC 3265 - USA - 1971 - LP/12"/33RPM

I'd guess that the bulk of the Pickwick catalog could generously be described as crap, but I have a soft spot in my heart for one album in particular: Tribe sing the creative genius of George Harrison, John Lennon & Paul McCartney. And for so many reasons. I love that George Harrison is listed first in the title. I love that the word "Beatles" doesn't appear on the cover. I love the little button in the cover photo that says "British Power" and the fact that there's a joint tucked discreetly beneath the cover model's hand. On the back cover it's slightly more smoked and sitting in an ashtray and the model has melded with a guitar. I love the fact that Pickwick was so fucking cheap that you didn't even get an inner sleeve (and I bought my copy sealed, baby).

But most of all, I love the song selection. And I don't mean Let It Be or Something. Or great Beatles hits like My Sweet Lord or Isn't It A Pity. Or Mother, or even Maybe I'm Amazed. What I love is the thought of somebody's grandmother picking up this album at Woolworth's, bringing it home to her Beatles-loving grandson, and introducing him to the glory that is Tribe's take on Yoko Ono's Why. Yes, here we get to the heart of the "the best examples of the Beatle decade, rocked by the Tribe in brilliant new stereo arrangements." ( The Mystical Beast)

Bewertung /Grading

Mint : Original verpackt / Still sealed.

Mint - : Eine fast perfekte Platte. Platte oder Cover zeigen keine oder minimale Gebrauchsspuren.
A nearly perfect record. Record or cover show no or very minor wear.

Very good ++: Nicht ganz mint-, jedoch besser als very good + / Not mint -, but better than very good +

Very good + : Platte mit typischen Spuren regelmäßigen, aber sorgfältigen Gebrauchs, z.B. haarfeine Striche auf dem Vinyl und leichte oberflächenhafte Gebrauchsspuren; keine tiefen Kratzer. Cover z.B. an den Ecken leicht angestoßen, an den Rändern leicht abgenutzt, mit leichtem Plattenrand oder Beschriftung; die Kanten sind intakt, keine Ein- oder Abrisse. Insgesamt ein absolut erfreuliches Exemplar.
Vinyl may show slight surface wear like hairlines or scuffs; no deep scratches. Cover may show minor scuffs on edges, some slight stain wear, ringwear, or writings; no tears, splits or damages. The record has obviously been used but was handled with good care.
