RARE! Battered Ornaments were formed in 1969 and disbanded the same year! Recorded in England. Gatefold cover On UNIQUE Harvest Label - check out the AWESOME inner sleeve with the cereal box photo! Has large promo hole
Battered Ornaments were an ambitious rock band put together by lyricist Pete Brown known for writing many of Cream's songs. Organized in 1969, Battered Ornaments featured Brown on vocals and trumpet, Graham Layden (vocals), Chris Spedding (guitar), Charlie Hart (organ, violin), George Khan (sax), Butch Potter (bass), Rob Tait (drums), and Pete Bailey (percussion). Layden was an early casualty. The group released an initial LP, A Meal You Can Shake Hands With in the Dark, credited to Pete Brown and His Battered Ornaments, and completed a second, Mantelpiece, before Brown left in a dispute with Spedding. Brown's vocals were then wiped off Mantelpiece and replaced.

GOLDMINE'S Visual Grading guidelines.
MINT: Absolutely perfect in every way, unplayed or still sealed.
NEAR MINT (NM): A nearly Perfect Record. Vinyl shows no obvious signs of wear. LP Jacket has no creases, folds, seam splits or any other similar defects, and no cut-out holes. Basically a NM record looks and feels new.
VERY GOOD+ (VG+): A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled but previous owner(s) took good care of it. Vinyl surface may have some slight signs of wear that don't affect playback. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. The label may show some very light wear or discoloration and the center hole will not be misshapen.
VERY GOOD (VG): Many of the flaws in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing but will not overpower the music. Groove wear and light scratches will be evident. Labels may be marred by writing, tape or stickers, same is true of the sleeve and jacket cover.
GOOD and GOOD PLUS (G and G+) Good does not mean bad! A record in Good or Good Plus can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping, but it will have significant surface noise and scratches. A jacket or sleeve will have seam splits or tape, writing, ring wear or other flaws.
POOR and FAIR (P and F) The record is cracked, badly warped and won't play without skipping or repeating. The LP Jacket barely keeps the LP inside it
