$

250

Cover: G+ (ring/storage wear, tears on front, old tape on top seam and spine, seven inch top seam split, two inch spine split through the tape, sticker in corner, back has ageing, small writing and stain in corner)

Record: G+ (edge warp causes the needle to wobble a bit and a light "whoosh" sound during the first few seconds of each side. Plays with plenty of ticks and background noise but no skips)

Extremely rare original pressed on Moondog's own private label and sold personally by the man himself on the streets of NYC. Unfortunately the insert/pamphlet has gone missing. Incredible that these very contemporary-sounding compositions were recorded 60+ years ago. This is a rough copy (as almost all existing copies are) but still certainly an enjoyable listen!

This LP has been professionally cleaned on the most thorough setting with a Klaudio ultrasonic cleaning machine.

Grading:

NM Looks unplayed or perhaps played just a few times. The cleanest grade I give and very rarely used.

VG++ (same as EX) Very light surface marks often from the inner sleeve that do not affect play. Perhaps a very light tick or brief moment of barely audible surface noise at the very worst. Overall a very clean record.

VG+ Light surface noise during a quiet moment or two. Might play with a few light pops here and there but nothing sustained over more than a few seconds.

VG Surface noise is more pronounced or more frequent than in a VG+ record, but never skips or overtakes the music. Might play with some light pops or ticks for a minute or two at a time. Still an enjoyable listen.

VG- A filler copy. Will play with louder pops or ticks than a VG record and surface noise might compete with the music during the quieter moments. I will only offer a record in this condition when its scarcity demands.
