THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1962 1st PRESSING ON THE HULL BLUE LABEL WITH BLACK PRINT # LP-1OO1 RECORDED IN HIGH FIDELITY.  HAND ETCHED INTO BOTH SIDES OF THE DEAD WAX IS (SIDE 1) XTV 81639-1A (AND ON SIDE 2) XTV 81639-1B WHICH GENERALLY INDICATES AN EARLY 1ST PRESSING! IN ADDITION THIS HAS THE MEGA-RARE COVER ERROR! ON THE REVERSE SIDE SONG LISTING, UNDER SIDE 1 THE 3RD SONG DOWN READS "READY OR YOUR LOVE" APPARENTLY ONLY A HANDFUL ESCAPED AS THE CORRECTION WAS MADE DURING THE 1ST PRESSING RUN AND WAS CHANGED TO "READY FOR YOUR LOVE."

VISUALLY, THE 57 YEAR OLD THICK VINYL DISC IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION! I HAVE EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND DO SEE THAT THE RARE PLATTER HAS RETAINED MOST ALL OF OF IT'S DEEP RICH LUSTER! PLENTY OF SHINE HERE!

I DO SEE MANY EXTREMELY LIGHT SCUFFS/HAIRLINES (MOSTLY OF THE SWIRLY VARIETY) NOTHING THAT I CONSIDERED TO BE EVEN CLOSE TO FEEL-ABLE. NOR WOULD ANYTHING SERIOUSLY EFFECT THE OUTSTANDING LISTENING EXPERIENCE!

THE  LABELS AS YOU CAN SEE ARE  EXCELLENT AS WELL! THEY ARE FREE FROM ANY WRITING TAPE OR STICKERS AND SHOW ONLY MINORS SIGNS OF USE!

 BASED ON THE ABOVE IMPERFECTIONS I FEEL THE VINYL DESERVES A GRADE OF EX TO EX+ AND APPEARS TO BE LIGHTLY PLAYED!

THE COVER PRESENTS VERY NICELY! THERE IS NO WRITING, OR STICKERS ANYWHERE! THE LOWER SEAM WAS NICELY REPAIRED BY A PREVIOUS OWNER. IT WOULD BE BARELY NOTICEABLE IF NOT FOR SOME OLD TAPE RESIDUE THAT WAS LEFT OVER FROM A PREVIOUS REPAIR AS WELL AS SOME PAPER LOSS ON THE REVERSE SIDE. THE UPPER SEAM IS UN-SPLIT & TIGHT! THERE IS MINOR WEAR AT THE CORNERS. THE SPINE IS VERY STRONG, UN-SPLIT AND TIGHT! THERE IS SOME VERY MINOR EVIDENCE OF RING/SHELF WEAR NOTICEABLE ON BOTH SIDES AS SHOWN.

THE REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES ARE PERFECTLY READABLE AND VERY INFORMATIVE. THERE IS SOME LIGHT SOILING AS SHOWN.

 THERE IS SOME MINOR STAINING /SOILING/DINGS/CREASES AS SHOWN. BASED ON THE ABOVE IMPERFECTIONS I FEEL THE COVER GRADES AS VG TO EX!

I HAVE PLAY GRADED THIS AND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS OUTSTANDING!!! THERE WAS SOME VERY MINOR OCCASIONAL NOISE MOSTLY BETWEEN SONGS BUT NOTHING DISTRACTING IN THE SLIGHTEST WAY! AN OUTSTANDING LISTENING COPY! THERE WERE NO SKIPS, STICKS OR DISTRACTING POPS, HISSES, CLICKS,TICKS OR BURPS! THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE GRADES EX++ TO NRMT-(MINUS)

OVERALL BASED ON ALL OF THE ABOVE THIS ROCKIN' LP GRADES EXCELLENT!

WE USE GOLDMINE AS GUIDELINE FOR OUR GRADING SYSTEM.

ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL INSPECTION.

MINT

Mint records are in most cases sealed in original shrink wrap. The only wear permissible is to the shrink wrap itself.

NEAR-MINT

NM records have glossy vinyl. There are no visible defects such as writing, tape, or stickers on the labels. The labels should not contain any spindle marks(from someone blindly trying to put the record on the turntable) The vinyl may have a few extremely fine hairline scratches or light scuffs that do not affect the sound quality. The vinyl will "appear" to have been unplayed (It may very well have been played and well-cared for)The album cover will haveNO writing, tape, creases, folds, seam splits,stains, ring wear or Promo holes or cuts!

VG+(EXCELLENT)

VG+records have glossy vinyl. Slight signs of wear, including light scuffs, very light scratches or slight warping that does not seriously affect the listening experience is permissible. Very slight intermittent background noise mostly in the quiet passages is acceptable.

The album cover will have no more than three of the following imperfections: light writing such as initials or name in one area, minor creasing, seam splitsnot larger than 1". Neatly taped seams of 2" or less.It may also contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp, punch hole or cut-out as originally sold.

VG

VG Records have more obvious flaws such as more pronounced scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail are common. When played there will be surface noise but it should not continuously overpower the music. There areNO skips permissible with no more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force. It is common to hear crackling and pops especially in the quiet passages. The labels may contain writing such as a persons name or initials or it may contain a piece of tape or sticker with or without writing. The cover may have some seam splits, writing, tape, stickers, ring wear and scuffs.

VG-

VG- All of the defects listed VG category would be more pronounced. The record will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. The record will have many obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if the record is rare, it is still highly collectible.

G/G+

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. It will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
