GUIDED BY VOICES GBV JELLYFISH REFLECTOR 2 LP LIVE 1996 NM IN SHRINK POLLARD

     This auction is for the release by GUIDED BY VOICES -- JELLYFISH REFLECTOR.  This is a double vinyl album set released in 1996 on the Jellyfish record label.

     This set came in a plain white cardboard sleeve/cover with a white paper insert.  The cover has a snub on one of the corners (pic #8). 

     The vinyl is in near mint condition.   I was buying so much music back in those days, that the most I could ever listen to an album would be three times!  So tops, it was played that much...but honestly, I probably played it once (I didn't have a turntable after 1995, and listened to mainly compact discs by that point...).

     The GBV database lists the songs as;

Jellyfish Reflector (Disc 1) Side 1 1.   Man Called Aerodynamics [Live] 2:14 2.   Rhine Jive Click [Live] 1:41 3.   Cut-Out Witch [Live] 3:17 4.   Burning Flag Birthday Suit [Live] 2:38 5.   The Official Ironmen Rally Song [Live] 3:05 6.   Bright Paper Werewolves [Live] 1:14 7.   Lord Of Overstock [Live] 2:35 8.   Your Name Is Wild [Live] 2:11 Size 2 1.   Look At Them [Live] 2:54 2.   Underwater Explosions [Live] 2:14 3.   Don't Stop Now [Live] 2:22 4.   Office Of Hearts [Live] 2:00 5.   Lethargy [Live] 1:45 6.   Game Of Pricks [Live] 2:32 7.   Striped White Jets [Live] 2:29 8.   Melted Pat [Live] 2:22 Total Length: 37:33 Jellyfish Reflector (Disc 2) Side 3 1.   Hot Freaks [Live] 1:55 2.   Postal Blowfish [Live] 2:16 3.   My Son Cool [Live] 2:04 4.   King And Caroline [Live] 2:17 5.   Motor Away [Live] 2:05 6.   Pimple Zoo [Live] 1:54 7.   Some Drilling Implied [Live] 1:56 8.   Shocker In Gloomtown [Live] 1:44 9.   A Salty Salute [Live] 1:48 Side 4 1.   Gold Star For Robot Boy [Live] 1:42 2.   Tractor Rape Chain [Live] 2:42 3.   Yours To Keep [Live] 0:57 4.   Echos Myron [Live] 2:11 5.   Weed King [Live] 2:47 6.   Bug House [Bonus Track] 7.   Pantherz [Bonus Track]

8.   I'll Buy You A Bird [Bonus Track]

      This is a list from their website...so I don't know for sure whether or not those last three bonus tracks are on the vinyl or not.

     This live semi-bootleg was recorded at the Patio Club in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Record Grading:

MINT (10) Perfect! Still sealed albums are presumed MINT, but covers may not be. I will not grade any opened album as "mint", since there's obviously been some handling.

NEAR MINT (9.5) ---- Close, but one or two tiny flaws that do not impact play. Vinyl may have a barely visible scuff mark, but no scratches. Label is bright, clean and unmarked. Covers close to perfect with very minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident.

EXCELLENT (9) ----Disc plays near-perfect. There could be scuffs or a hairline scratch or two that does not impact play. Vinyl is bright and shiny. Label is clean and unmarked. Cover may have some slight corner creases or minor ringwear.

VERY GOOD PLUS PLUS (8) ---- Record handled and played occasionally, but very carefully. Very minor scratches and/or scuffs that should have little impact on the sound quality, or minor label imperfection---noted, but otherwise clean. VERY GOOD PLUS PLUS records may have some light surface noise during quiet passages or between tracks. Covers: one or two minor wear issues such as writing on cover, corner creases, some ringwear, minor staining, etc. (All noted).

VERY GOOD PLUS (7) ----The record has been cared for, but has some minor flaws. Light scratches and/or marks/scuffs that won't make a big impact. Light surface noise here and there, but nothing to overwhelm the listening experience. Covers may have a few minor defects (duly noted). Those who are looking for pristine-only might not be pleased, but most music fans would be happy to have a collectible album in this condition.

VERY GOOD (6)---- The record has been played often with some care, but also a little neglect. Record displays visible surface wear---scratches or scuffs that will cause some minor to perhaps occasionally moderate surface noise. Vinyl could be "dull" at this point and not "shiny', or still perhaps shiny, but then a little more scratched-up. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc. Most music fans would be happy to have a highly collectible album in this condition.

VERY GOOD MINUS (5) ---- Well-played with little luster and moderate surface noise, but skip-free. Lots of scratches/scuffs or fewer but more deeper marks. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork---seam splits, significant ring wear, tears, cuts, taping (all noted). I will only sell RARE "VERY GOOD MINUS" records.

GOOD (4) --- Pretty beat-up with lots of scratches, but not dead yet. Record should still appear not to skip, though it's possible it can. Surface noise is moderate to occasionally heavy. Seam splits are usually a bigger issue around this level with the records better off in a plastic sleeve. I only sell VERY RARE "GOOD" records. They are certainly "good enough" until another copy comes along.

GOOD MINUS (3) --- Even more beat with tons of scratches and LOTS of surface noise. Skips are possible, though I wouldn't intentionally sell a record that does. Given the right moment, fans could probably enjoy a GOOD MINUS record, but might also be irritated by it at times. I will only sell VERY VERY RARE "GOOD MINUS" records. Covers are hanging together by a thread (seams shot) but not intentionally defaced.

FAIR (2) ----FAIR records appear and sound lousy (significant surface noise, horrific scratches). I won't sell these, unless I find something that is SO INCREDIBLY RARE. Expect skipping or a very unpleasant listen. Covers may be defaced, seamless, stained beyond belief.

POOR (1) ---- Unlistenable and undisplayable.
