PLEASE SEE PHOTOS

Roy Orbison continued to construct dramatic operettas of pain and loneliness, but unlike the previous Monument hits, his new batch followed arcs that end in breathless emotional and aural crescendos. Such is the album's opener, "Crying," with Orbison transitioning from cast-aside to mortally wounded in a mere 2'49. The bookend closing to the original album, "Running Scared," has a similar architecture, and an emotional arc that takes Orbison from apprehension and paranoia to a surprisingly happy ending.

The album tracks include a couple of covers, "The Great Pretender," "She Wears My Ring," and "Love Hurts," none of which eclipse the better known hit singles. The rest of the originals from the pen of Orbison and his writing partner Joe Melson. The upbeat "Dance" shows off a soulful side, "Loneliness" has a lightly Latinized twist-beat, "Let's Make a Memory" is catch mid-tempo pop tune, and "Nite Life" has a jazzy horn chart.

How I Grade Condition Of Discs

Mint

This means I have owned it from new or purchased from a distributors warehouse, basically it means absolutely new shape, never been played or out of its dust cover. In the case of LP's, a North American album will have to be factory sealed (anyone can reseal an album!) Take Note: European and Japaneses albums were never shrink wrapped!

Note: Being mint does not guarantee it's free of pops and clicks, many pressings especially from the US were made with very poor vinyl and in a hurry which means often there are imperfections in the pressing. As a former importer, we were often given back brand new albums due to clicks heard in the playback.

Mint Minus - No such thing, it's either mint or not.

Excellent - A disc is super clean, with no visible marks

 Excellent Plus, means it's probably mint but can't be proven by me.

Excellent minus, is a disc that is excellent except it may have some markings that do not show up in the playing

VG - A disc that is STILL in good shape, WILL have some scuffs or scratches, not in excellent shape but well worth owning. VG + and ++,a disc that is that much better than VG.

VG minus, just a smidgen below VG

Good - A disc that can be played, has obvious ware but is worth owning, a DJ copy of a rare early Motown for instance or a rare Doo-Wop or Northern Soul which could still be worth a fortune, Good Minus & Good Plus is a step above or below Good. In most cases I will not offer a disc in this condition unless it's rare and hard to find.

LABELS

Labels do not alter the grading of vinyl; many records are Excellent, looked after by the previous owner but still have their initials or markings on the label. A DJ copy will often have markings to show which side to be plugged, or the length of the intro. Many labels and covers in the US have been punched, that was done by the record company to show the disc was deleted and shipped out to mass retailers to sell cheap and could not be returned for a credit, this does not impede the value, many records eg Swan and VJ Beatles were done like that, also many promo lp’s were punched or slit to show they were provided as promotion and not charged to the client and no royalties paid to the artist
