Description
This Taiwan record is actually a copy of Dylan's 1964 album The Times They Are A-Changin'. The cover is a paper/plastic combo, and as would be expected from such a flimsy cover there is some obvious wear but it is intact. The record plays through but there is background noise. There is also a slight center bow but this does not affect playability. I've owned this and the other Taiwan orange disc for over 25 years; they have been properly stored since then but I never test played them until now; I will list the other one as well. Please review condition description and photos, and I would be happy to answer any questions. I would recommend a good cleaning.
GRADING Vinyl records are first visually graded based around the Goldmine standard - see below for details. Then I spot play grade every record, paying particular attention to any defect I see that may affect sound reproduction. I will provide a grade for the cover and record, not the inner sleeve; nor will I guarantee that the inner sleeve is original to the record unless specifically noted. All records will ship in a (probably used) clear plastic cover. Records are dusted but not professionally cleaned; I recommend a thorough cleaning prior to playing.
What you won't find with my grading are any items graded mint, nor will you see anything like +++ ; I mean really? If you don't agree with the grading of this item and wish to return it, I would appreciate it if you would contact me as soon as possible. For returns other than 'not as described' buyer pays return shipping. Having run an online record store from the mid 90s to 2008 I understand the importance of you knowing exactly what you are buying.
Grading scale: NM: as good as new, this is an over-used grade I avoid for the most part EX: minor visual defect, perhaps a surface mar but should play great VG+: more noticeable blemishes to cover but not too distracting, minor surface noise possible on quiet passages or track leadin but overall a very enjoyable listening experience VG: this grade is not really 'very good'. More visual and audio defects, but cover is intact albeit with noticeable defects and the record will have more visual defects and audible noise, but won't detract much from your listening experience G: record with his grade would be a placeholder until you can find a better copy. Lousy cover, very noisy but plays through with no skips. P: junk
Codes GF = gatefold RW = ringwear SM = sawmark CC = cut corner COH = cutout hole SOC = sticker on cover SOL = sticker on label WOC = writing on cover WOL = writing on label WLP = white label promo T&TS = title and time strip DNAP = does not affect play
