What is it: The Oroonies- The Woods Are Alive With The Smell Of His Coming (Hiraeth SRT-7KL-1382)
As with the Astronauts LPs I am selling, I have listed this as an Anarcho record, but don't expect this to sound like Crass's Feeding of the 5000. The Oroonies are one of the bands that came together to form the Ozric Tentacles; start with Zounds and the Mob and get more stoned and eventually you get to the Ozrics and Gong. Basically evolved punks who played at free festivals. I think this came out in the mid-80s, but I cannot say for sure.
The record: VG+ - I am being conservative in my grading - you can see from the spindle tracks that this has been played five or six times, but it is de facto perfect.
The sleeve: VG - A fairly crappy black-and-white cover, there is some staining on the back which i have not tried to remove (but it may well come off) and a few buffs to the opening edge. Oh yeah, and the bottom seam has come unglued. However, unless you have serious OCD issues about sleeves being flawless, this should be just fine for you.
Trust my gradings! I worked in the rarities department of a famous London record shop chain and I grade old school. If I say something is VG I am speaking Old School Record Collector grading - i.e. a record that has been very well looked after, not (as you see all the time on eBay) something that has been found in a lake. And I don't grade anything MINT unless I know it is unplayed.
I post everywhere, and my rates are fair. I will endeavour to send expensive things signed-for, and will provide proof of postage if necessary and help you hound the postal service if anything goes missing (hasn't happened to me yet - touch wood).
NB: I recycle packaging - it's cheap and (in environmental terms) it's the right thing to do.
