Description
For sale is a stellar original copy (not a repress) of rare psych/ garage 45 "I'm Gonna Dance/On Sunset" by The Decades. Promotional copy on the orange Era Records label, 3174.
Date of "2/15/67" written on "I'm Gonna Dance" side. Labels otherwise crisp and clean. Vinyl rates a stellar NM. A beautiful example of this rare 45. Side one is hard garage psych rock that prefigures punk rock. Not sure who the guitarist is, but he's incredible. Side 2 is hard Musique Concrete with a crazy montage of noise and sound effects such as industrial machinery and snorting pigs playing over sparse surf guitar. Incredible, bewildering, brilliant stuff.
My grading scale:
STILL SEALED : Jacket imperfections, if any, will be described. Vinyl guaranteed to be in unplayed condition.
M : I don't use this grade, on the assumption that no record or jacket is truly flawless.
M- : Vinyl appears unplayed, jacket bears no signs of wear. I rarely, if ever, use this grade.
NM : Like M-, with possible scintilla/whiff of an imperfection
VG++ : May have a couple very minor imperfections. (sleeve scuffs, faint scratches or other superficial marks that have little or no bearing on sound.) Jacket may have a couple very minor flaws.
VG+ : Like VG++, but with a few more light imperfections
VG : Several light imperfections, and possibly one or two more serious ones, such as small feelable scratches. Still plays well.
VG- : Will display numerous minor imperfections and/or feelable scratches that affect playback quality. Between you and me, you could do better.
GOOD : What I consider pretty poor... numerous major imperfections. I generally don't sell items in this range unless they are of major significance.
