Orig. 1967 Psychedelia Hippy Acid Trip Rock Band "The Baroques" Chess LPS-1516
Here's a nice treat from my personal collection. I've simply run out of room and am selling off some of the LPs I just haven't listened to for a while, or have duplicates in vinyl or other formats.
This is the Milwaukee classic 1960's hippie record, "The Baroques" by The Baroques, on Chess catalogue #LPS-1516. this is the original release I bought back in high school in the days of the Avant Garde Coffeehouse, Kaliedoscope, the 1812 Overture Record Store in the dinky storefront on Brady off Farwell, etc, etc, etc,
The LPs looks rough, but it plays surprisngly well. I tried to take some pics that shows the scratches, but they aren't really revealing. while there are many, most can't be felt. I hate rating records because there is such a subjective disparity on evaluations, but I'd rate this LP as follows:
Vinyl: VG, Many visible scratches or scuffs, but no skips and plays far better than it looks.
Cover: VG, A good amount of ringwear on the front, but no split seamd (see pics).
If you love fine recordings, analog vinyl, and this LP in particular, you need to give it your full attention. This recording goes for big bucks in pristine condition, and I make no bones that this isn't prisitne. but if you want a placeholder or a test copy for a listen without breaking the bank, or just want to relive some old memories for a while, this copy is for you!
Don't let it get away!!
All records are graded "vinyl / jacket". Assume grading to be "visual" unless noted.
Grades for vinyl :
M : new, un-played, perfect.
M-/NM : like new but carefully played a limited amount of times. Should play perfect with almost no noise or imperfections. May show very faint imperfections from paper scuffs or tiny needle marks.
EX : as above with a few light needle marks, or a few light surface scratches, and/or inaudible or barely audible scuffs. a very nice used record
VG+ : no groove wear, but some visible scuffs and surface scratches. Should still play with nice fidelity, but will have an occasional pop, tick, and light surface noise, surface noise between tracks. A normal used record.
VG : still showing good gloss but lots of small scratches and scuffs. A slightly abused record that should still play through without skips, but will have light surface noise throughout, pops, ticks, and maybe some light distortion around the edges. I do not consider VG to be a junk grade
VG- to G : any record in less than VG condition that I feel is still worth offering
Grades for jackets:
M : perfect. no wear, square flat corners, solid seams, spine etc.
M-/NM : overall appearance of front and back near perfect but may have a very small problem or faint age wear that I will explain.
EX : as above, nice "un-handled" feel, but may have a small split, a bent corner or two, very light ring wear, small writing. Or a M- jacket with a drill hole, saw-cut, or promo stamp.
VG+ : still have a nice overall appearance, but may have the following defects: seam splits, spine splits, small tears, ring wear, writing, small stains, etc. in various (not severe) degrees.
VG : defects as above in a greater degree, and possibly a "handled", or "worn" feel to the paper. possible neat tape repairs. will still look good when in a poly-bag.
G or G+ : getting ugly, but for some reason still worth offering.

While there are some benefits to the new services, such as much faster delivery, the costs for shipping have increased dramatically. Please inquire as to what shipping may run before bidding as the costs have usually at least doubled over the previous rates.
