PLEASE CONSIDER THAT IN THESE EBAY AUCTIONS I USE A STRICT RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE GRADING SYSTEM THAT CAN'T DISAPPOINT ANYONE BUT THIS DOESN'T MEAN THAT ,FOR EXAMPLE, A VG+ COVER OR A VG+ VINYL IT'S EQUIVALENT TO "BAD CONDITIONS" BUT SIMPLY THAT MY GRADE IT'S STRICT AND PROBABLY EQUIVALENT TO AN EX OF SOMEONE ELSE WITH NOT A SO STRICT GRADE. I HAVE SOLD IN THESE AUCTIONS EX- RECORDS THAT WERE SURELLY M- COPIES BUT I PREFERE TO BE STRICT TO AVOID ANY DISAPPOINTEMENT BECAUSE I TAKE GREAT CARE OF MY REPUTATION.
Record Collector Magazine Grading System 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.
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.
FAIR The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
graded VG++/EX for a strict Record Collector magazine grading system
label: Pressed in the far 1969 with HLP 10267 as catalogue number in the original Metronome label that here does have differents colours to the normal label design but it's the same for all the copies. There are some marks around the spindle hole but very light and maybe 4/5 but nothing else as pen writings or others damages hence I call it a strong VG++.
cover: The cover it's a laminated and does not have particular wear if not a circular delection hole in the right upper side...then for to be very cautious I can see a very light ring ghost depend of the light on the lamination but in a frontal vision you can see a clean cover and just this small corner hole....I call this cover VG++ but it's better.
vinyl: The vinyl it's in very nice conditions ...there's some dust but no marks hence I give a EX- without any problem.
review: German jazz/library musicians Horst Ackermann & Heribert Thusek’s incredible, dark foray into the world of eerie samples & spine-chilling funk. An album whose rarity is as scary as its whole thematic & musical conception. A serious collector’s piece. ‘Dance of the Vampires’, ‘Crime & Horror’, ‘The Fire-Dragon of Hong Kong’, ‘Dr Caligari’s Creeps Cabinet’, ‘Frankenstein Greets Alpha 7’, etc. Always in demand, classic kraut, beat. This is the movie soundtrack to a film that never existed. This is the movie soundtrack by the band that was never requested. These were the sound library musicians who had to invent their own clients and imaginary cast, crew and plot to get their music heard, by a niche audience, before floating deep into the depths of the rare record reservoir gasping for breath. To take a cinematic cue the record in question is the euro-trash-Pop equivalent of Jean Renoirs tragic / triumphant Boudu character who as a homeless, confused and desolate down-and-out plunged to the depths to be unwillingly rescued, resuscitated then after gradually winning the hearts of an entire family becomes respected and revered as royalty. Over 20 years after the mad scientists, Dr. Horst and Ackermann, first breathed life into this short-lived beast, brave and intrepid vinyl explorers have sporadically returned to the doors of 'Dracula's Music Cabinet' to resurrect the sonic spooks and mutated melodies to share with nerds, mods, rockers, Hip-Hoppers, Psych-nuts and Kraut-siders alike ... don't miss!
