Important General Information
This and upcoming auctions of vintage LPs, EPs and select 45s are a continuation of my earlier offerings of 2001. Most of the pieces are from my personal collection of over 45 years of accumulation. The music genres are largely rock, psych, garage, blues and progressive material. Some albums retain their original shrink wrap. Most contain any and all inserts that were used in packaging and have their original inner sleeves.
The material is graded conservatively using Jerry Osborn’s grading criteria, with one exception. I play grade each piece ( except 45s ) in addition to visually grading the items under proper lighting. Each album offered has been converted to digital format and put into my library. That is how I’ve play graded each one. I use high end audio equipment while doing the conversions. The amplifier is a Nakamichi Receiver 3, the turntable is a Denon DP-45F and the cartridge used is a Audiotecnica Dual Moving Magnetic unit. It tracks at .75 grams of pressure to the vinyl.
GRADING IS NOTED BY COVER/SLEEVE FIRST, THEN VINYL. (EG. NM/VG+ )
ARTIST: Neil Young
TITLE: Neil Young
LABEL: Reprise RS-6317 First Press
RELEASE DATE: 1968
COMMENTS: This is the real deal collectible version of Neil's debut release for Reprise. The first issue
has no title on the cover, no re-mixed tracks and does not shown RE-1 in the trail-off
vinyl. This is classic Neil pre-Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and post-Buffalo Springfield.
The gatefold cover shows the slightest of wear on the extreme high points in the cardboard.
The color is bold, the interior is perfect and the reverse is also flawless. The vinyl has a nice
lustre and playgrades strongly at NM. The label has the correct multicolored version and
has no problems. It also has the correct original inner sleeve. This is a real collectible piece!
CONDITION: NM-/NM
