Throughout the centuries the Slovak people have accumulated on immense wealth in it original and unique music, dance, songs and notional dress. The geographical variety of the country, social and political conditions and the creative fantasy of our people caused popular art to be very varied, heterogeneous and in view of the relatively small area in its character internally differentiated. Only very seldom is it possible to find such a rich variety and manifoldness on such a small territory. After the liberation of the country in 1945, many amateur groups formed at the various educational institutions and social organizations and set themselves the following tasks: not only to record the beauties of the Slovak popular art but to develop it, conventionalize and modify it for the stage and to furnish pleasant entertainment. (The origin, mass development and popularity of these collective; of popular art is thus related to the entire social and political way of thinking and feeling at that time). Out of this great number Or amateur groups which were based on the traditional folklore of their immediate environment and in view of the fact that moil of the members of those collectives were direct bearers of folklore, popular dancers, popular musicians and popular singers, the Slovak popular art collective (SLUK) was formed in 1949 with the task to develop and conventionalize the popular art of the whole of Slovakia on a professional basis. SCUK has remained faithful to this mission for the post 30 years. Its three sections: the dance group, the choir and the orchestra cultivate and develop the characteristic lectures of our folklore. SCUK is not only concerned with the mechanical recording of the traditional people's art and its transfer an the stage but with the development and conventionalizing of this sort of art using contemporary artistic forms and at the same time preserving all characteristic sings and features of this art.

CONDITION Descriptions:

I base the condition of each of my Records off of Ebay's Grading System. 


• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all. 

• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting. 

• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play. 

• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing. 

• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along. 

• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.
