I used to produce a Skinzine back in the 1980s, BATW, have finally decided to thin out my Ska/Rocksteady & Reggae collection of 7" built up over the last 40 years.  I now collect 70s/early 80s mid-tempo, crossover, disco soul and would be open to trades if anyone has such stuff, especially Caribbean Islands soul sides (Jamaica/Barbados/Trinidad etc).   

SOUND FILE

There should be active links to Drop Box directly below this where you can listen to full sound files of actual record.   I am aware the links are not visible for all users.  If for any reason the sound files are missing or do not work, please let me know and I can try to email you the MP3s directly.    Recorded on an Audio-Technica AT-LP60 USB turntable at 128 bit rate, so don’t expect superior quality audio!  However if there is any pops, clicks or background noise you will hear it.  Please listen to it before bidding to avoid questions of grading.  Please, please listen before bidding to avoid any later confusion.

GRADING

Please read carefully before bidding.

RECORD (Visually): G

Retains something of a sheen.  Vinyl is covered in mostly superficial lines, hairlines, scuffs and marks, some quite nasty looking ones, luckily mostly unfeelable though.  'Nevada Joe' actually plays through pretty well, there are some light ticks ticks at 0:11>0:16 and another tick at 1:24/1:25, for the most part the music shines through, should probably play out ok on DJ decks.  The flip 'Straight To The Head' plays well throughout, music nice and clear with just the occasional light tick. 

Centre intact,  previous owners name stamp on labels. 

I should imagine probably ok for DJ purposes and to be honest this is used ska/reggae vinyl, ticks and background usually come with the territory!  Please see pictures as well as the sound file for more detail of grading.

The above record grading is based on Record Collector magazine system:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. 

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

 
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has obviously been over played, and will probably display deterioration in sound quality, it will probably have lots of fine lines and the odd scratch. Wear and tear on the cover or extra items.

Records shipped in dedicated record mailer with two stiffeners.
