Salvation Summer 75 SEALED Private 1975 Lp NJ Horns Psych Prog Hendrix Beatles

Product Description

Salvation Summer 75

I've never heard this album, but I found the following description online: Rare 1975 private press from New Jersey band who had one earlier 45 on UA. Very well-recorded jazzy / funky melodic rock with horns, with early Chicago being the obvious inspiration. About half originals and covers, with a good heavy psych workout on Hendrix' "I Don't Live Today" (1975 was quite late in the game for this sort of thing), a seeming tribute-to-Joe-Cocker take on "A Little Help From My Friends", and possibly the only cover ever of Paul McCartney's "Monkberry Moon Delight".

Tracks:
We're on the Right Track / I'll Always Love My Mama
It Could Be We're in Love
MonkBerry Moon Delight
I Get High with a Little Help from My Friends
Worse Comes to Worst
I Don't Live Today

Records are visually graded.
Record grades:
sealed: Original plastic seal still intact, so record is unplayed. Could refer to shrink-wrap on outer jacket, or to inner plastic sleeve some companies sealed.
mint: I do not use this grade. See 'near mint'
near mint: Close to new condition. Vinyl surface is shiny. Disc appears to have been rarely, if ever, played. No scratches or obvious marks.
vg++: (very good plus plus) Played, but well cared for. Vinyl surface is shiny. May show minor evidence of use (for example, a small mark here or there), but nothing that would upset most people who aren't mint fanatics.
vg+:(very good plus - also known as 'excellent') Disc may show a few scuffs or surface scratches, but nothing too serious. Disc may have begun to lose a little of its shine. Still in above-average condition and very enjoyable.
vg:(very good) Played a lot by a non-collector, but not abused. A lot of surface shine may be gone. Disc may show numerous scuffs or surface scratches, but no deep gouges or cracks. Should play enjoyably with no skips or sticks.
vg- & g+: (very good minus and good plus) These two grades are in-between 'g' and 'vg'
g: (good) Special note to new collectors: 'good' is a LOW grade for a record. It means 'good' in the sense that if it were any worse, it would be no good to anyone. A 'good' record will show a lot of wear, and probably have no surface shine. It may have numerous surface scratches or scuffs, and have a lot of surface noise. Still, it should play through with no skips or sticks and be reasonably enjoyable. Many older records that look 'good' play surprisingly well.
fair: May show excessive wear that will seriously diminish listening enjoyment, or other damage that will be noted in auction listing. Should, however, play through without skipping or sticking unless otherwise noted.
poor: May show excessive wear that will make enjoyable playback impossible, or other serious damage (obvious defects will be noted in auction listing).
