BEST OF TWIST-A-RAMA U.S.A.  (1965 (?), Longmark Productions)

Condition of Cover: VG+, some minor EW, name written in pen on front of cover.

Condition of Record: Visual VG+. Pressing bump on the first track of both sides caused 3-4 tics and some noise on Side 1, Track 1, and some tics and noise in the beginning bits of the Side 2, Track 1 song that eventually goes away. Another small pressing bump causes some minor background noise to the very beginning of Side 1, Track 2 that goes away very quickly. I played this on my turntable using a Grado Cartridge. VERY lo-fi pressing, pressing has some background noise and hiss. This record is impossible to find in any shape, and the low quality of vinyl used to press it makes it doubly rare, let alone a lot of these were thrown in a landfill.    

Additional Information: Original. TAR 1000.                 

Comments: The Best of Twist-A-Rama U.S.A. showcases local garage bands from the Mohawk Valley area in Utica, NY. Produced by Hank Brown, this LP is based on the show "Twistarama" which spotlighted local bands in the Utica, NY area in a manner similar to a local music scene "American Bandstand." This record is VERYYYYYYYYYYYYY RARE sought after by 60's Garage Rock collectors. The fact that the LP was only available in local shops for a short period makes it more of a RARITY. DOES NOT POP UP PERIOD! Have any questions, please ask. Please check out my other rare psych/prog/garage/folk/private LP auctions!

Grading Scale: My grading scale is as follows:

SEALED, M-, NM, NM-, EX+, EX, EX-, VG+, VG, VG-, G+. I do not sell anything lower than G+. My records are visually and play graded to check for accuracy. My VG+ should have little to no surface noise according to my turntable using a Grado cartridge, and my EX gradings are equivalent to Goldmine's VG++ grading, just more descriptive within the grading spectrum of VG++. My M- is open unplayed. My NM and NM- gradings are reserved for items opened once and played. I generally default to VG if the cover has any noticeable ringwear, surface wear, or seam splits. Please see abbreviation list. If you have any questions, please email me! NO REISSUES UNLESS STATED AS SUCH!!
