WHAT THIS IS:

USED Vinyl Record SIZE: 12 INCH.

WHAT THIS IS: USED record(s). NOT perfect. Maybe "Acceptable" or "Very Good" to you.

I DO NOT WANT TO SELL YOU A BAD RECORD! Yet it could happen. All records crackle & pop. Some less or more than others... I have seen records with surfaces that look ugly & sound flawless. I have seen/heard record surfaces that look NEW & they sound AWFUL & even SKIP. Covers might be worn in a way I missed in the description.

Did Seller listen to this record before offering on eBay?

ANSWER: YES, FULLY. See Below in Red.

It takes hours to listen to records & document the hidden faults. FACT: The ONLY way to know if a record sounds good (or not) is sitting there, watching it, the needle, looking at meters & fiddling with knobs & listening carefully to the entire vinyl in Real Time. Completely undistracted. Please ask me if you want me to go listen this to this one, before you bid or buy. I'd be glad to check it out for you & give you an update on this record if I can.

Please check the record(s) I sell you & message me as soon as possible if you find a problem.

SELLER: I still want to help you! EVERYTHING I CAN DO - TO MAKE YOU HAPPY & avoid a negative situation.

I can take returns ONLY from the USA. Refunds for overseas on case-by case basis.

FORMAT: Vinyl, LP, Album

LABEL(s): Phase 4 Stereo / London

ITEM #(s): SP 44290

COUNTRY / YEAR(s): USA. 1976.

OUTSIDE SLEEVE CONDITION:

Saw cut corner. Shiny, some ring rubbing. Some creases & edge wear. I think it is VG except for the cut. No busts, splits.

(INNER) SLEEVE CONDITION:

London record sleeve has brown edge aging. No busts or tears.

SURFACE CONDITION:

Looks VG for used. Static dust & hair particles.

I checked both sides in real time. Sounds great to me as used, & as good as the day I bought it.  Side B has some faint crackling from needle set down into the opening as it is musically very quiet.

A Up Side Down (Afro Beat) Vocals – Sandra Akanke Isidore 14:45

B Go Slow (Afro Beat) 14:37

NOTES:

Includes a 4 page photocopied article "Bongoes* & The Groovies: On The Road With A Nigerian Rock Band." - Randall F. Grass. Covers some info on FELA.

Copied from an unknown magazine back in the 1980's. }

SELLER NOTES:

Note: Records are HAIR/Particle energy magnets. I feel that using record cleaning fluid destroys records. I will do my best to make it look presentable. But I think leaving the record USED & AS IS might be the best policy for the longevity of the record.
