SIMON FINN is an English singer-songwriter residing in Montreal, Canada for years, whose life reads as a novel. His first effort Pass the Distance, released in 1970 by Mushroom Records, became a Psych-Folk classic, but was deleted due to legal problems with the sleeve. The Comany who sued Finn and his record company 35 years ago, managed the removal of all copies that were left in stores. Today there are about 100 copies of Pass the Distance circulating. Finn once tried to buy a better copy for himself, but the fan wanted too much money for it.

Grading Guide:
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. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
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.
