Description
The time has come again to get rid of a few albums to pave way for new ones. Please check my feedback as Im a proud vinyl lover and hope it reflects my gradings and approach to providing you with a quality item and service. Now for the listing
Atomic Rooster ?– Death Walks Behind You Label: B & C Records ?– CAS-1026 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Gatefold Sleeve Country: UK Released: Sep 1970 Genre: Rock Style: Prog Rock
Outer sleeve: VG graded with some reservation as it has some obvious shelf wear. Its a strong copy and the spine is straight and readable Inner Sleeve: I believe its original and in VG+ condition Vinyl: VG+ ( I know people who would grade as NM- but Im adding a little caution on this one)
Matrix Info: A-1U / B-1U The mothers and stampers are also noteworthy on this copy as the mothers are 1 on both sides with stampers M and L on sides 1 & 2 (respectively).......very very early 1st press!!!
Grading I do not use excellent as a grading. I use the following as noted to be the GOLDMINE grading system
Mint Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed.
Near Mint (NM or NM-) A nearly perfect record. A NM- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly (static noise should be noted as existing on any record ever made at any point)
Very Good Plus (VG+) A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not effecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences
Very Good Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. 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 otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time.
Good (G), Good Plus (G+) A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.
All the records I am selling are cleaned on a Moth MKII with L'Art du Son and rinsed with pure water. The records are stored in antistatic sleeves. My prefered choice is MOFI archive inners but have used a few Nagoka 102 inners. Anything used is included in the sale.
Postage: The bane of most sellers but it does cost for me to ship. I only use a signed service and this will usually be Royal Mail 2nd Class Signed for. LP's fall in the small parcel category and costs £4.40. I use mailers for vinyl and have to use tape and drive to post office etc. as well as eBay and Paypal take there cut so at £5.00 shipping Im making a loss. This does class up to 2KG so I will not charge any extra than £5.00 to UK bidders. Even if you bid crazy amounts of money. I will cover insurance. International shipping is set by eBays Global shipping program and not by me.
Any questions please get in touch.
