THE LEAVES HEY JOE ORIGINAL 1966 FOLK PSYCH LP W/SHRINK












Artist:The Leaves Title:Hey Joe Label:Mira Records Year of release:1966 Catalog/Label number:LP 3005  mono Condition of vinyl:VG++ to Mint-   The glossy vinyl is very clean with some small, hardly visible sleeve marks. No scratches. Labels have no spindle marks! Record plays flat with no warps. Thick, heavy vinyl. Play grade:Mint-   The entire album sounded fantastic and played extremely well. No hiss, clicks or skips. Condition of record cover:VG+ to VG++   The cover would be close to Mint- if not for the 2 inch seam split at the bottom center of the cover as seen in the picture. The price sticker is on the outside of the shrink wrap. The shrink wrap is completely intact except for a small section at the right lower edge. Cover has no cuts, holes or creases. Musicians:Robert Lee Reiner - Tom "Ambrose" Ray - Jim Pons - Bobby Arlin - John Beck Songs:DR. STONE - JUST A MEMORY - GET OUT OF MY LIFE, WOMAN - GIRL FROM THE EAST - HE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE - HEY JOE! - WORDS - BACK ON THE AVENUE - WAR OF DISTORTION - TOBACCO ROAD - GOOD BYE, MY LOVER - TOO MANY PEOPLE  Notes:From Bruce Eder & Richie Unterberger at allmusic:  "This is one hell of a debut album, especially for a group that only lasted for about a year after its release. The Leaves perform some superb folk-rock in a Byrds/Beatles vein ("Just a Moment," "Girl From the East"), excellent lyrical garage punk ("Words," "Tobacco Road"), and solid hard rock ("Hey Joe," "Too Many People"), and cross swords with the Rolling Stones ("You Better Move On," "Back On the Avenue" — the latter a ripoff of the Stones' "2120 South Michigan Avenue") and Bob Dylan ("Love Minus Zero"). The sound isn't exactly consistent, given the gamut of influences at work here, from Bo Diddley ("Dr. Stone") to primitive psychedelia ("War of Distortion"), but there isn't a bad song on the disc, and the CD reissue has about the best sound ever heard on this material, bringing out the guitars in a genuinely crisp and vivid fashion. Maybe the strangest and best track in that regard is their cover of "He Was a Friend of Mine," which incorporates elements of both the Searchers' "When You Walk In the Room" and the Byrds' "I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better" into its structure and beat — the guitars are a real kick there. The bonus tracks may have come from vinyl sources rather than tape, but they hold up very well for sound quality. Anyone who enjoyed the first two Byrds albums must own this disc."    NO RESERVE

Grading

MINT * Perfect record, clean gloss, no marks. A mint record is uncommon.

M- * Very clean only a few light marks; plays very well.
M- * Album cover - Near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no ring wear.

VG++ * Surface marks, no scratches, should play and look very good with faint, if any, audible surface noise.
VG++ * Album cover - Some minor ring wear, but  should be in good condition overall.  Also, there can be some minor creases in the corners but no splits in seams.

VG+ * The record shows signs of use, but plays well despite quite visible surface marks and possibly some light scratches. This grading is often used for records which have not been cared for perfectly but still play well overall. A few very faint clicks may be allowed, and will be included in the description.
VG+ * Album cover - May have corners that may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but no tears or holes.

VG * Still a nice record, looks used, light scratches, no gouges, still plays fairly well. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music.
VG * Album cover - There may be seam splitting, but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part be in good condition.
