SPINDLE HOLE WITH LIGHT RUB MARKS. THE HIGH LUSTER VINYL BLANK WITH SOME LIGHT AND FINE SURFACE RUB AND PLAY MARKS UNDER BRIGHT ANGLED LIGHT AND ASSIDUOUS EXAMINATION. I'VE TEST PLAYED THIS LP ON THE VPI TURNTABLE AND PROFESSIONAL SOUND SYSTEM AND IT WAS A WONDERFUL PLAY WITHOUT NOTICE OF THE ABOVE. ONCE IN A BLUE MOON SOME VERY FAINT BACKGROUND NOISE BUT THEN TAPERING OUT. SOUNDING MINT MINUS HERE.

RARELY SEEN LP WHICH NOW FETCHES 100 PLUS WHEN SEEING THE LIGHT OF DAY

PLEASE NOTE THE VINYL DESCRIPTION IS ONLY A VISUAL INSPECTION UNLESS OTHERWISE MENTIONED. HERE IS A FEW WORDS ABOUT MY GRADING SYSTEM AND IS IN ADDITION TO ANYTHING WRITTEN ABOVE: ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY GRADED AND THE RED GRADE ABOVE REFERS ONLY TO THE STATE OF VINYL......YOU PLAY THE VINYL AND NOT THE COVER....COVER IS NOTED SEPARATELY. IF I'VE TEST PLAYED AN LP IT WILL BE NOTED. MINT INDICATES PRISTINE VINYL WITHOUT ANY MARKS ON THE VINYL BLANK. MINT MINUS MAY CONTAIN A FEW VERY LIGHT SURFACE RUB MARKS FROM HANDLING & SLEEVE WEAR OR A FEW PLAYS. IF YOU ARE A REAL VINYL AFICIONADO AND COLLECTOR YOU'LL KNOW THAT EVEN A FACTORY SEALED LP OCCASIONALLY HAS SOME LIGHT RUB OR SLEEVE MARKS FROM TRANSPORT AND SHELVING. ANYTHING IN THE VG CATEGORY WOULD CONTAIN SOME LIGHT AND FINE SURFACE PLAY LINES AND EVIDENCE OF PLAY WEAR THAT IS EASILY SEEN. SELDOM IS ANYTHING OFFERED IN THE "G" STATE.

Biography
by Dave Marsh
Perhaps the most underrated gospel vocalist and songwriter of black gospel's golden age, Dorothy Love Coates represented, in the words of Craig Werner's A Change Is Gonna Come: Music, Race and the Soul of America, "the best of what the early '60s offered: a model of call and response rooted in an unflinching engagement with history; an understanding of the world that sends pulses of energy back and forth between gospel and the blues; an unwavering commitment to the beloved community; a refusal to be seduced into a mainstream where the value of life is measured in money; and music so powerful it can change your life." 

It changed the fortunes of many more famous music stars. Holland-Dozier-Holland based the …  » Read more

AND, LASTLY, PLEASE DO REMEMBER SOUND QUALITY IS AFFECTED BY WHAT THE VINYL IS PLAYED ON! IF YOUR STEREO SYSTEM HAS BEEN CAREFULLY CHOSEN AND ASSEMBLED FOR IT'S AURAL QUALITIES AND YOU PERFORM BASIC MAINTENANCE LIKE CLEANING YOUR VINYL, CLEANING THE NEEDLE AFTER EACH PLAY, AND REPLACING THE CARTRIDGE WHEN NEEDED, YOUR LPS SHOULD SOUND QUITE GOOD.

YOUR SATISFACTION: Your positive feedback and excellent seller rating of 5 in each category is very important to me. I try to give as much detail as possible about appearance and condition. Should your purchase not meet your expectations please contact me before leaving feedback and detailed seller rating. YOUR SATISFACTION IS OF PRIME IMPORTANCE TO ME. Do you know how the Ebay Seller Ratings System works? Did you know that even a 4 rating is a bad rating for a seller? With most rating systems of 1 to 5(highest), you would expect a "4" to be a very good rating and a "5" to be an excellent/highest rating. You purchase an item on Ebay and the product, service, communications or fees were very good but not great. You give the seller all 4's thinking this is very good.(Most rating systems equate 1=lowest, 2=fair, 3=good, 4=very good, 5=highest). Unfortunately this is not how it works on EBAY as of May 2008. ONLY A "5" IS A GOOD RATING. The lowest acceptable average for each category is 4.6; below that a seller receives a "NEEDS WORK" and their standings in the listings are lowered. SURPRISING BUT TRUE AND SEEMINGLY UNFAIR.
