Description
ARTIST - CYRIL DIAZ AND ORCHESTRA TITLE - CARIBBEAN CRUISE LABEL - RCA CATALOG NO - LPB-1011
RECORD GRADING - VG+(strong, the record plays excellent) LABEL GRADING - VG(some staining)
The record looks VG+ with some minor scuffs, and some minor fading to the gloss on one side. But it plays EXCELLENT, I hardly heard any ticks or clicks. A wonderful copy for the collection. The cover is actually all intact, but does have some staining on the back. Please look at the picture of the back of the cover. On the front there are two minor spot tears, probably from where there were price stickers. Incredibly hard to find record, especially in this condition, contains the track Voodoo. Great fusion of Cuban Latin Jazz and Calypso.
International bidders- Priority mail only on this one, due to the value. I would also prefer to ship it by itself, no combined shipping. Thanks for your understanding.
I can combine shipping! Many times it means I can ship up to 3 LP's U.S. for the same cost as one, and possibly more 45's. International bidders - Combined shipping will be only based on weight, so I will need to know how many items are bought before sending invoice. Thanks again!!
VJ'S VINYL GRADING SYSTEM: (based on Goldmine)
Mint - never used, once a record is opened, the top you can get is mint minus. Mint Minus - A great record, one or two fine hairline scuffs, sounds flawless. A mint minus record can "play" mint. Covers are new looking, may have shrink. Excellent - Can have faint hairline scuffs that do no affect play. Can have very minor infrequent crackling. Minor bumps in the cover. VG+ - Scuffs can be more prevalent, with a little more surface noise. If it visually has more scuffs but plays great, I will note that. Still, a very fine and playable copy. Covers have minor age and shelf wear. VG - Can have lots of hairline scuffs, and maybe one or two scratches. Surface noise more prevalent with some popping in spots. Covers have more extensive age and shelf wear. Minor splits. VG minus - More in the way of scratches and surface noise is NOT infrequent. Still, a viable copy. Covers may have splits. G+ - only reserved for a very rare or popular record. Very noisy, maybe some skips, scratches are evident. Covers are trashed. STILL SEALED - I will grade the vinyl as "still sealed." That means it's probably mint minus, but I do not know if there was any factory defects. Hairline scuffs - are light yet visible. You cannot feel them with the skin of your finger. (I cannot fathom feeling it with your fingernail as described in Goldmine...why would you do that?) Scratches you can feel. If I am on the fence between grades, I will go with the lower one. I will not use VG++ etc., but will say that a record is a "strong" VG+. "Age wear" on a cover is either fading or yellowing. "Shelf wear" is ring wear, corner bumps, or fraying
