Bristol TN Tennessee Rooty Branch Church Campbell Trio Sermon Vinyl LP Record
As pastor of the Rooty Branch Church, I have known THE CAMPBELL TRIO for the past three and a half years. They are a group of singers dedicated to God’s work. Since my acquaintance with them, we have been in many re- vivals, gospel singings and prayer services, enjoying the many blessings of the Lord. They have been an inspir- ation to the church and have seen many souls saved through the spirit of God and their sermon in song. I feel the songs selected for their first album will be a message to the lost and a blessing to the ones that do not have the privilege to go out to God’s house. Also included in the picture on the back cover is Brother HOWARD CAMPBELL, who I have heard testify under the annointing of the Lord. He goes with the Trio from place to place, supporting them with his prayers and his testimony of the saving grace of Jesus. He is the husband of VIRGIE, who sings tenor for the Trio. Sincerely, Rev.

We would like to dedicate it to the people of Rooty Branch Church, where we attend. Also to all of our other friends who have stood by us through the years that we have been singing. We sincerely hope that this album will be a blessing to everyone, as our desire is to be busy in the work of the Lord, and to see souls saved.

We follow grading parameters from Goldmine Magazine:
Mint (M)  Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed.
Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly)that no record is ever truly perfect.  The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.  An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like.  Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. 
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.  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. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK".  The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play.  Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. 
Very Good (VG)  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, only two or three of them. 
Good (G), Good Plus (G+)  Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white).  A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. 
Poor (P), Fair (F)   The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon.
