Description
ARTIST: Harmonica Slim
LABEL: Vita 146
TITLES: Drop Anchor / Do What You Want To Do
CONDITION: E+ / E-
DESCRIPTION: "Drop Anchor" E+. Music is loud and clear with very light playing surface noise far below music. As good as it gets on 78. "Do What You Want To Do" E-. Music is loud and clear with very light playing surface noise far below music. Audible scuffs and scratches..stain on surface, "swish" could be heard on every revolution starting at 0:36 and stops when the harmonica solo starts...1:05.
I use the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:
E+ Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
V+ An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.
V Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.
G+ Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
F Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P Unplayable.
