Description

Ways to Get Through is a 1973 double LP by Jesuit theologians John Foley and John Kavanaugh. It is widely celebrated among record collectors as a hidden gem of private-press folk and psych-rock. The record features honest, DIY instrumentation, sing-along harmonies, and lyrics that explore philosophy, faith, and the human condition.
The gatefold cover shows some normal wear. No splitting. Both discs are a strong VG (Very Good), both play closer to VG+ (Very Good Plus).

Grading:

We use Goldmine grading scale for our records


Mint: Record is in perfect condition.


NM or “near mint”: Record is in almost perfect condition, shiny with no visible defects, no writing, no surface noise when played, free of creases or ring wear.


VG+ or "very good plus": may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or scratches that do not effect sound when played. Minor signs of handling, very light ring wear or discoloration. 


VG or “very good”: Obvious flaws, lack original gloss, groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches that are deep enough to feel with a fingernail. Surface noise and some scratches will be audible, but will not overpower the music otherwise.


G/G+/VG- or, “good, good plus, very good minus”: Record will still play through without skipping, significant surface noise and groove wear, label is worn, significant ring wear, writing, damage caused by stickers or tape. 


P/F or “poor/fair”: Record is cracked, warped, or skip when tried to be played.
