IS IT JUST ME OR DOES MITCH MILLER LOOK LIKE THE DEVIL? YEAH, IF YOU'RE A DINOSAUR GEEZER YOU KNOW WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT, HE HAD THAT SING ALONG WITH MITCH TV SHOW. WELL NOT ONLY WAS HE SCARY LOOKING, BUT HE WAS AN A&R MAN FOR MERCURY AND COLUMBIA RECORDS. THAT'S RIGHT, HE WAS A RECORD COMPANY EXECUTIVE AND HE HATED ROCK 'N' ROLL. IN 1958 HE SAID "ROCK 'N' ROLL IS MUSICAL BABY FOOD. IT IS THE WORSHIP OF MEDIOCRITY, BROUGHT ABOUT BY A PASSION OF CONFORMITY". HUH? THEY SAY HE WAS BORN IN 1911 AND CROAKED IN 2010, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT. BECAUSE, NOW CHECK THIS OUT: A FEW YEARS AGO THEY FOUND SOME OLD PAPYRUS SCROLLS IN SOME CAVE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. WHEN THEY DECIPHERED THEM, TO THEIR AMAZEMENT THEY DISCOVERED THAT ONE OF THEM SAID THAT THE DEVIL WOULD RETURN TO EARTH AS A RECORD COMPANY EXECUTIVE. HEY, THEY WERE WEARING SANDALS AROUND BACK THEN AND RECORDS DIDN'T EVEN EXIST. SO HOW DID THEY KNOW THAT? WELL THE GOVERNMENTS BEEN KEEPING IT QUIET, THEY DON'T WANNA CREATE A WORLD WIDE PANIC. BESIDES, I HEAR THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO CHECK OUT IF MITCH REALLY DID CROAK, OR IF HE'S STILL LURKING AROUND SOMEWHERE. SO YEZ BETTER BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHO YEZ ARE SINGING ALONG WITH THESE DAYS. OK LARRY?

I ALWAYS PLAY EVERY SINGLE MISERABLE NOTE ON EVERY RECORD I EVER LIST ON MY DENON DP-1200 TURNTABLE WITH A DENON MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE HOOKED UP TO A HEAD AMP. THIS KIND OF CARTRIDGE TRACKS BOTH SIDES OF THE GROOVE AND IN SOME IMAGINARY SITUATIONS ALLOWS THE LISTENER TO HEAR WHAT THE GROUPIES BEEN DOING IN THE SOUND BOOTH. ANYWAY, ALL 4 SIDES PLAYED GREAT WITH A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE IN SOME PLACES, I THINK THERE WAS A STATIC POP IN THE MIDDLE OF ONE OF THE SONGS, BUT THAT'S BASICALLY IT. YOU KNOW HOW THESE AUSTRALIAN PRESSINGS CAN BE. ABSOLUTELY NO SKIPS OR STICKS.  IT'S NOT LIKE THAT AT ALL, THE RECORDS ARE PRESSED ON SOME NICE HEAVY VINYL, SO VISUALLY WHEN I MOVED MY PROTRUDING NASAL APPENDAGE ABOVE THE EACH SIDE OF THE RECORD WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY MOVING EM' 'ROUND 'N 'ROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB, THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES, A FEW LIGHT SCUFFS HERE AND THERE BUT BASICALLY THESE ARE SOME NICE RECORDS. A HELL OF A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT SOME SCHMUCKS CALL VG+ ON THIS SITE, NOT THAT I'M SAYING THEY'RE VG+ OR M- OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I DON'T USE THOSE KINDS OF GRADES, I ACTUALLY PLAY THE RECORDS THEN WRITE WHAT I SEE AND HEAR. SO IF YEZ WANT THOSE TYPES OF GRADES CHECK OUT THE OTHER SCHMUCKS AROUND HERE, THEY'LL BE LINING UP TO SELL YEZ THEIR VG+ RECORDS THEY JUST LAST SUMMER USED TO PLAY FETCH WITH FIDO.

THE RECORDS COME IN HIGH QUALITY TYPES OF INNER SLEEVES, EXACTLY THE KIND THAT ARE OFTEN BEEN USED BY SERIOUS RECORD COLLECTORS, NOT JUST CASUAL POOTERS, AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT WEEZE TIGHT, I'M GONNA GIVE YEZ A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE ABSOLUTELY FREE.
