Description

1/ EAST OF EDEN – 1971 Self-Titled Original Vintage 1971 OZ press:       

Vinyl Grade: +VG, lovely high gloss, a few small light scratches only.  

Sound Quality: EX, the sound quality is excellent with no noticeable surface noise, side 2 tracks 2 & 3 have some light ticks, fully play tested and sounds fine.

Cover: VG, flat, no edge wear, price sticker damage top right, back cover has writing, was an ABC radio record and has the date stamp 28 Oct 1971 so it was obtained by the ABC when issued in 1971.

Labels: no spindle wear, track times written on both labels, side 1 has a ‘sample not for sale’ sticker.   

2/ COLOSSEUM ll – Electric Savage 1977 USA press:

Vinyl Grade: +VG, a couple of small light scratches, surface is a bit dull and not an EX high gloss.   

Sound Quality: EX, plays with no noticeable surface noise apart from a little at the very start of side 2 track 1, no pops/clicks/ticks, fully play tested and sounds fine.

Cover: VG, worn cover, has ring wear, has deletion cut bottom left, includes MCA inner sleeve.

3/ BABY GRAND – Ancient Medicine 1978 Australian press:

Vinyl Grade: +VG, lovely gloss, no scratches but has rib like impression lines from a plastic cover.     

Sound Quality: EX/+VG, side 1 sounds EX with no noticeable surface noise, side 2 sounds +VG with some light background surface noise, no pops/clicks/ticks, fully play tested and sounds fine.

Cover: VG, would be EX if not for the sticker residue marks front and back.

Records graded directly under very bright table light for the visual grade. Sound quality checked by playing to ensure that visual grade and sound quality are consistent. 

Mint M and Near Mint NM: Looks perfect as new. N and NM is only appropriate for new reissue records and not for vintage vinyl that has been played, regardless of how perfect it may look.

Excellent Plus +EX: Lovely gloss, no visible scratches, scuffs or marks. Has been played but has been handled well and still in great condition. (highest grade that I use for vintage vinyl)

Excellent EX: Lovely gloss, shows some slight signs of wear, including light trace/hairlines from the inner sleeve, light scuffs or very light marks that you would not expect to hear as surface noise. 

Very Good Plus +VG: Shows a few more very light marks than is allowable for EX so not quite EX. These signs of use would be expected to cause some light surface noise but not to detract from the music.

Very Good VG: Shows light scratches and marks and some that you would expect to cause surface noise, especially in soft passages, between tracks and during a song?s intro and ending but not so much as to overpower the music which can still be enjoyed.

Very Good Minus -VG: Shows significant wear and marks that you would expect to cause noticeable surface noise that detracts from the music.

Good G: In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up records lacking much of the original gloss and with many scratches and marks that you would expect to cause very noticeable surface noise and clicks/pops that seriously detract from enjoyment of the music. 


Postage: I package very very well and only charge the actual Aust Post cost. International post currently not available because of the delays with sending parcels overseas. 


Pleased to combine posting: 1 record is $8.95, 2 or 3 records is $12.20, 4 records to about 9 records is $15.35.
