FABULOUS REGGAE ORIGINAL from my own collection. Super SINGLE from MERLENE WEBBER 'HARD LIFE' / COLLINS ALL STARS 'VERSION' released on the UK SMASH label in 1971.**THIS IS THE EXTREMELY RARE 1ST PRESSING BUT IS ONLY A COLLECTION FILLER. I GENERALLY DONT COLLECT OR SELL VINYL BELOW VG GRADING UNLESS LIKE THIS ONE THEY ARE CLASSICS AND HUGELY RARE**.
IF THIS WAS IN ANYWHERE NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION IT WOULD BE £150.
It has survived with substantial surface scuffing and scratches and although it has CONSTANT CRACKLE AND SOME CLICKS, IT DOES NOT JUMP OR SKIP.
The SINGLE PLAYGRADES IN GOOD (G) condition (SIDE'A').
**PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION OF 'GOOD' BELOW**
**Records playgraded as Good Condition (Rare Record Collector Gradings) does not mean it is in good condition in the traditional sense. With Vinyl Records, Good means the record can be played end to end without skipping or getting stuck, but visually the record is likely to have wear and or hairlines on the surfaces, possibly has scratches and or groove wear. When playing the record it will certainly have surface noise such as crackle, clicks or pops. The labels on the record are likely to be worn or have writing on. However due to the huge rarity of this record in any condition collectors may still want this as a collection filler.**
BOTH LABELS GRADE AT GOOD (see pics for exact condition).
It is supplied in A NEW WHITE SLEEVE and a poly sleeve for extra protection.
This record never comes up for sale. I grade strictly to the Rare Record Grading System and include a definition of grading below:
Rare Record Collector Grading: G (GOOD)
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 Description: I will ONLY SEND this 'SIGNED FOR'.
I offer a no quibble returns on my vinyl (buyer pays return postage).
Please contact me if any issues asap.
I offer combined postage. Three singles for same price.price rating
