THESE RECORDS WERE HANDED DOWN TO ME FROM MY recently deceased grandfather WHOM WAS A RECORD STORE OWNER/ DEALER FOR 35+ YEARS & was amongst the Last of the 60's "Flower Children".. OH THE PICTURE HE WOULD PAINT AS HE DESCRIBED HIS 3 DAY PILGRIMAGE AT THE GLORIOUS '69 WOODSTOCK. I HAVE MULTIPLE.COPIES OF EACH LP I AM SELLING. I ONLY NEED MY (NM) RECORDS OF MY LIKING+ MY LISTENING COPIES WHICH ACCOMPANY.THEM. ALL OF MY ADDITIONAL COPIES.I SALE.TO THE MASSES.
I grade by DISCOGS GRADing SySTEM WHICH IN TURN GOES BY THE GOLDMINE MODEL WITH THE INPUT OF PARTICIPATING DISCOG MEMBERS.
***********************(((((********(((((
THE WAY I LOOK AT A RECORD'S ALBUM COVER GRADE IS THE SAME WAY I WERE TO LOOK AT A CLEAN VERSUS A DIRTY ROOM.
WHEN YOU GET DONE CLEANING YOUR ROOM DOESNT UR ROOM LOOK 'VERY GOOD' ONCE YOU PICK UP, DUST.AND VACCUM AS OPPOSED TO THE 'POOR' SHAPE THAT IT WAS IN WHEN YOUR CLOTHES WAS LAYING ALL OVER THE PLACE,FOOD CRUMBS THEOUGHOUT THE FLOOR AND THE BIBLE ON THE NIGHT STAND IS COVERED IN DUST 1 INCH THICK?
ALTHOUGH THE MIRRORS ARE DIRTY BUT THE REST OF YOUR ROOM IS 'VERY GOOD' IF YOU ADDED CLEANING THE MIRROR IT WOULDLOOK VERY GOOD +/EXCELLENT. NO OBVIOUS MESS SO NOW THE ONLY THING THAT YOU WOULD NEED TO EXAMINE ARE YOUR BASEBOARDS. IF THAT IS CLEAN AS WELL THAN IT IS NEAR MINT/PERFECT
AS IF YOU JUST MOVED INTO YOUR NEW ROOM.
PEOPLE LIKE TO CALL A CLUTTERED ROOM OR SCUFF FILLED RECORDS 'VERY GOOD' INSTEAD OF GOOD. I CALL IT LIKE IT IS. IF I SAY A RECORD IS VERY GOOD than every one should aee.that it is what i say. I dont use the term perfect becausr there always is an IMPERFECTION regardless if we can see it or not.
NOTHING IS EVER TRULY NEAR MINT IN MY OPINION. WHEN PEOPLE SAY (NM-) , I like to say Ex/NM!!
NOTES:
The shrink ORIGINALLY had permanent marker drawn all over the frame SURROUNDING THE BAND CENTER PIC ON BOTH THE FRONT &BACK COVER. I WAS ABLE TO CLEAN MOST OF IT OFF AS YOU CAN SEE. WHILE CLEANING I NOTICED A FEW CREASES. 3 THAT I NOTICED. THE MARKER APPEARED TO HAVE BLED THEOUGH THE SHRINK ONTO THE COVER.
***ALSO AS YOU LOOK AT PICS 1-4 YOU SHOULD SEE SPOTS THAT ARE MISSING SHRINK
(RIGHT ABOVE THE PRICE STICKER & BOTTOM LEFT CORNER)
***(RECORD>>>90% CLEAN!!
SHOULD PLAY WONDERFULLY-THE PARTS I LISTENED TO SOUNDED GREAT!
MOST KISS LOVERS SHOULD BE PLEASED WITH THIS ALBUM.
