Description

Dave Corbett & Friends - Stoned, Broke & Fed-Up.

 

 

 

UK vinyl album, folk private press, on Deroy Records (DER 1013) from early-mid 1970s.  *Re-listed due to non-payment from original listing*   

 

Dave Corbett : 6 string and 12 string guitars and mouth harp; Roly Sandalls : piano; John Bailey : rhythm guitar; Scouse : backing vocals; Tony Keetch : lead guitar on 'Smashed Out Carpet'.  Recorded at SS Studios, Stoke-on-Trent.  Produced by Dave Stirrup. 

 

Track listings : Side One - 1) sweet on someone's mind; 2) I wonder; 3) rock & roll star; 4) summertime; 5) it's all gone now; 6) stoned, broke and fedup.  Side Two - 1) sun is setting on my life again; 2) troubled times; 3) mr play; 4) dream momma; 5) smashed out carpet. 

 

Some sample lyrics, Rock & Roll Star - "i bought myself a new pair of jeans, well man you've got to keep in with the scene, i'll maybe buy an electric guitar, then watch me, i'll be a rock and roll star".  It's All Gone Now - "do you remember Dylan singing i shall be free, didn't do much good for him, but did a lot for me, ..... do you remember the hippie scene roundabout '65, when we all wore bells and beads and thought mankind ...".  Troubled Times - "there's a battle raging in Ulster town, a war in Vietnam, an explosion happened in Cuba today, human burnings in Japan, fighting over religion, for what they say is right ...". 

 

Includes two inserts, one a small black and white photo (13cm (5.5") x 8cm (3.5")) of presumably Dave Corbett and friends in typical early-mid 70s gear.  The other is an A4 lyric sheet.

 

All the above info has been discovered from the cover and lyric sheet.  Google gave me nothing except one claim that only two copies of this are thought to exist?!?  There is no label number on the actual label but the run out groove states DER 1013, which allowed me to identify it as being a Deroy record.

 

 

I will be away from a computer till November 13th 2008, so please wait for any replies to any questions until that date.  

 

 

Condition--Cover-The cover is outsized, that is it measures 35cm (14") x 32.5cm (13"), and is made out of thick paper rather than card(board).  Because of the cover being way too big for the vinyl, the 5cm (2") nearest the sleeve opening is particularly worn, lots of creases and some small rips.  The rest of the cover is also worn but does not have tears or any seam splits. /  Vinyl-VG.

 

 

Record condition gradings are done visually only, unless I state what the record actually plays like.  This is because I don’t have time to play everything, so bear this in mind.  I am quite strict grading so you can feel confident in my conclusions.  Anyone unhappy with my gradings can return item for refund.  If you wish to check my feedback you will find I have not had one reported case of anyone unhappy with my gradings.  I tend to be very conservative, as a general guide my gradings are thus:

 

Ex:-I only give this grade to records that are virtually untouched without any blemishes or defects, and with no marks, scuffs or scratches on the vinyl.

 

VG++:-This grade indicates an almost perfect record, but the sleeve might have minimal signs of wear and the vinyl extremely small signs of play.

 

VG+:-The sleeve might have signs of wear, though any seam wear/splits will be stated.  The vinyl might have signs of wear, but nowhere enough to prevent play.

 

VG:-The sleeve will have wear, though any seam splits will be stated.  The vinyl will have wear, but no major damage/scratches.

 

As a rule I would not sell any vinyl below VG condition, unless it was particularly rare or as expected (eg reggae singles), for the most part anything VG or below I would play before grading, for a more accurate realization of sound quality.

 

Will post anywhere in the world, except South America, I'm afraid.  All records are sent out in manufactured mailing envelopes with cardboard stiffeners.
