Description
Artist: Fran O’Rourke.
Title: Irish Folk Songs.
Label: Gound Records.
Number: NLA 1876.
Country: Germany.
Year: 19??.
Extremely rare micro private press of pleasant acoustic Irish folk. Solo project with no backing or dubbing at all, vocal and a very dry guitar is all. Totally noncommercial as well, cover reads “Not for public sale or broadcast. Private circulation only”. Fran is Irish but it is recorded and pressed in Germany. 5 stars in Pokora.
Cover: The cover consist of only a front and a back slick, and they are in truly great shape considering just how fragile it is, very few creases, no rips, tears or wear. Has a small old price label at the upper right corner, could be removed, but I haven’t. Strong VG++ at least.
Record: Disc is in amazingly good shape as well, plays sweet and totally stone mint silent for 95% of the time, the rest (last track on side 1) has very light surface noise. Stunningly good sound. M- to most people, very very strong VG++ to the rest of us. Very likely the best copy that exist of this.
General information: Hi! Up for auction this week is a bunch of very rare psych, beat and folk LP’s from around the world. I got these on a consignment deal from a dealer friend of mine. All are in my possession and have been visually AND play graded. Please check out them all, most of these you will not see again for quite a while, so grab them now you got the chance. Reasonable opening prices and NO reserve.
As far as I can tell, these are all original first prints, but I must admit that I am not familiar with all of these myself. I have tried to be accurate with my description, without being pedantic. If you need more information, like full track list, matrix number, additional photos etc please mail me, and I will try to help as good as I can. If you have any questions, or if you have knowledge about any of these that you feel should be stated in my description, please let me know, and I will add or correct.
Grading: I use GOLDMINE standards for grading. But have tried to be as accurate with my description instead of just giving a grade, as it seems that a M- record to some is a VG record to others and vice versa!! All records are guaranteed, if you are not satisfied, you get your money back (except postage).
Shipping and Postage: Postage at actual cost. I am working at strange hours and sometimes long shifts, so it’s not always possible for me to ship immediately after payment arrives. Shippings will be made AT LEAST once a week.
Payments: I do accept paypal, but it’s not free and you have to add 3% to your payment. Money orders (bidpay) or cash in registered letters works fine. Bank transfers or checks could be arranged too if you need to, but I haven’t checked out the fees for this, but as for paypal, you pay any fees. If you don’t wanna pay the fees – sent cash.
