Description
TITLE: The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other
ARTIST: Van Der Graff Generator LABEL: Pink Charisma
STEREO: NUMBER CAS.1007 YEAR 1970
CONDITION OF VINYL: The vinyl would be classified as very good+. There is a lovely sheen to the record, reflecting a well looked after piece of vinyl. I bought this record from new back in 1970. The vinyl does have some hairline scratches but they are very light It plays with very little deterioration in sound quality at all. This is very close to being classified as excellent, but in view of the hairline scratches, I feel I must sell this as very good+.
CONDITION OF COVER: The cover would be classified as very good+ also. It retains a nice crispness, but there is some discolouring, along with ringwear and the inevitable rubbing at the corners. But nothing bad at all! This gatefold sleeve has no pen markings at all
POSTER This I am very happy to classify as excellent. It is nice and clean and like the gatefold sleeve has no marks or stains whatsoever.
Overall this item is a really nice copy of a highly collectible album and the poster is very rare indeed. The album does play through extremely well and many may classify both the cover and the vinyl as excellent. My gradings are very strict because I do not want the purchaser to be disappointed. Please have a good look at the 7 photographs and you will see the quality of this item. The music is tremendous and a couple of years ago VDGG played a set in Liverpool and opened with "Darkness" from this album - a stunning opening if ever there was one! Similarly "Refugees" must rank as one of the most beautifully sad songs ever - but you will almost certainly know that if you reading this anyway! Happy bidding!
PACKAGING My vinyl is always very carefully packaged with inner stiffening to avoid the possibility of breakage. More expensive items will require a signature. Please bid with absolute confidence.
All these gradings are very strict and follow the Record Collector price guide.
MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging may have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges,spine splits,discolouration,etc.
