Description
HEAVY BALLOON - 32,000 POUND/16 TON. Great USA issue VINYL LP, comes in usual card style US picture sleeve, please see the pictures of the labels for track listings.. Elephant V vinyl LP, USA issue EVS-104, circa 1969. THIS RECORD IS OLD / FROM THE TIME 70's??, NOT a recent reissue, if you have any questions about numbers in run-offs or other identifying marks etc., then, please feel free to email me via ebays messaging service.
**CONDITION**
**When grading my items I follow Record Collector magazine's grading guide.** Therefore the usual card style US picture sleeve has lots of storage rubs and the top edge has split open, which is a nororious fault with the US issue paper over card picture sleeves, so the sleeve is complete but obviously not the best in the world, rates good +, the spine is strong, has a few rubs but is still reasonably clear = very good ++, the labels = excellent, visually the vinyl = very good++, plays with an occasional little crackle + a few little pops, but is still a brilliant LP and an enjoyable listen.
** CONDITION GRADES ** MINT = I NEVER REALLY USE THIS GRADE, BUT IF I DID IT WOULD MEAN THAT THE ITEM IS IN A FACTORY FRESH/NEVER PLAYED CONDITION. EXCELLENT = RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SOME SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING. VERY GOOD = THE RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES, BUT DISPLAYS NO MAJOR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY, DESPITE NOTICABLE SURFACE MARKS AND THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT SCRATCH. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE COVER AND EXTRA ITEMS, WITHOUT ANY MAJOR DEFECTS. THE GRADES MIGHT BE TWEAKED BY + AND - 's.**
I WILL USUALLY TRY TO TEST/PLAY THE RECORD ON A VARIETY OF DECKS/SYSTEMS ; TECHNICS SL1200, GEMINI 600II, NUMARK PT01 AND ION USB.
