Status Quo

Ma Kelly’s Greasy Spoon LP

Pye Records, UK, 1970

NSPL 18344

Vinyl Condition VG+

Sleeve Condition VG+

A very nice copy of the Quo’s third album, which saw them leaving behind their earlier psychedelic sound and begin experimenting with hard rock - I love this album!

The sleeve has been graded as VG+ with very little wear and tear.  The bottom left hand corner has some minor creasing and on the reverse there is a very small stain on the bottom right hand side.  The spine is in great condition for a record of this age with no splits or major scuffing.  The text is entirely readable with just a minor rubbing over the word Status.  

The vinyl is housed in its original white paper liner which has no nasty creasing, marks or stains.

Moving on to the vinyl the labels are really bright with no scratches or signs of major use.  Both sides show very slight signs of spindle wear but no spider/spindle legs showing.

The matrices indicate this is a first pressing (A-1U, B-1U).  Under bright light this record has such a bright sheen and shows little sign of wear.  Side B has a hairline scratch approximately 1 inch in length which should not affect the audio.

Who We Are

We are BA1 Records, a collective of passionate music lovers with an eye for spotting great vinyl.  We source our vinyl from a diverse range of places - we’ve bought private collections, sourced from car boot sales and  snapped up some fantastic items in charity shops.  We set up our store after being frustrated with the quality of some of the records we had previously bought on eBay.  As a result we are ultra-strict about the grading of our records and want you to be 100% satisfied that the record you buy doesn’t disappoint in any way.

Postage & Packaging

We are extremely careful when packing your vinyl.  All of our records are removed from their sleeves and placed in a plastic outer.  We ship with rigid stiffeners for added protection.

All prices are inclusive of postage and packaging.

We ship items under £20 by Royal Mail 2nd Class.

All items over £20 are shipped by Royal Mail Signed For 2nd Class.

Record Grading

We use the Record Collectors Grading System as defined by Record Collector Magazine.  We also introduce + and - where appropriate.  All items are graded visually under strong direct light.  Your complete 100% satisfaction is of huge importance to us and we therefore give us much detail as we can in our descriptions and pictures.

Mint

We do not use this grade unless the record is completely unplayed and the sleeve is in perfect condition

Excellent

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.  The sleeve may have slight wear/creasing.

Very Good

The record has obviously been played many times, but it displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.  Normal wear and tear on the cover is acceptable.

Good

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has detoriated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.  The cover suffers from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits.
