Description

Please Read Full Listing Before Bidding - Thanks.

On offer is The 7" Single - Bless You by Martha Reeves & The Vandellas.

Side 2: Hope I Don't Get My Heart Broke.

1971 Demo Pressing on the Tamla Motown Records Label - TMG 794.

Vinyl - Vg - The record has some light surface marks and hairlines, it plays Very Good throughout, static crackle heard in the dead wax leading in on/out on both sides but plays great once the music is playing, a few small tics/clicks heard on b side but they don't overpower the music and still a great listen - no skips jumps etc. The A side label has some wear and marks, The B side label has some marks and also a stain and a tear which is partially covered by a yellow sticker, I was gonna peel it off but decided it would look even worse with the sticker removed so have left it on - see pics.  

Sleeve - Provided in Generic Motown sleeve as pictured which has some age related wear although nothing too major - see pics.

Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. 

Please note: A mid range Technics turntable was used to play test the Record - Playback Results may vary on Inferior or Superior quality playback equipment.

Record Collector's Grading System.

  1. Mint: The record itself is 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 are in perfect condition.

  2. Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

  3. Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

  4. Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc...

  5. Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

  6. Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

  7. Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
