HIGH SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL/COUNTRY MUSIC HOLIDAY
7" SINGLE BY ADAM FAITH
U.K. HMV RECORDS (45-POP 557)
YEAR: 1958
THE HOLY GRAIL FOR MANY ADAM FAITH COLLECTORS AND A RECORD THAT VERY RARELY TURNS UP. ALTHOUGH THIS COPY ISN'T PERFECT IT STILL GRADES AS A VERY GOOD PLUS SHOWING JUST LIGHT MARKS, HAIRLINES AND THE ODD NEEDLE LINE. THERE IS ONE LIGHT SCRATCH AT THE START OF SIDE ONE BUT THIS APPEARS TO BE PRETTY MUCH INAUDIBLE. THERE IS A LITTLE BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE RUN IN BUT THE OVERALL SOUND IS VERY PLEASING BEING CLEAR AND PUNCHY WITH BARELY ANY DISTORTION. I WOULD IMAGINE THAT THIS RECORD HAS NOT ACTUALLY BEEN PLAYED THAT MUCH. A REAL RARITY AND A LOVELY ITEM TO OWN.
GRADING:
SIDE ONE (visual) VG
SIDE TWO (visual) VG+
SIDE ONE (audio) VG+
SIDE TWO (audio) VG+
GUIDE TO GRADINGS
MINT: As new condition/unplayed
NEAR MINT: No obvious marks or imperfections. May have very light paper lines/hairlines visible under strong light. Sound quality will be virtually perfect.
EXCELLENT + Record will display just the odd very light surface line/mark. No needle lines or scratches. Background/surface noise will be virtually non existent with the possibility of the occasional solitary tick. There will be nothing on the record to cause any audible flaws or distortion.
EXCELLENT: Record will display one or two surface lines and/or light scuff marks. No needle lines or scratches. There may be a little very light background noise only audible on the run in/out. No obvious audible flaws or distortion and will only have had light use. Records graded as Excellent will still be very acceptable copies.
VERY GOOD +: Record will display light surface lines/scuffs, light needle lines and hairlines although there will not be any heavy or obvious scratches. Sound quality will still be perfectly acceptable although there will probably be a little light background noise, most obvious on the run in/out and a little minor distortion occasionally. Records graded VG+ will have had moderate use but have not been overplayed.
VERY GOOD: Record will display several surface lines/marks, light needle lines and light scratches, some of which may be audible. The record has obviously been played many times but will still produce a good sound, albeit with some mild distortion occasionally. There will be no sticks or jumps and the record will play through fine.
I WILL NOT NORMALLY ADVERTISE ANY RECORD THAT FALLS BELOW A VERY GOOD GRADE UNLESS IT IS EXCEPTIONALLY RARE. I ALWAYS DO MY BEST TO GRADE RECORDS AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE NOT 100% HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY SO THAT THE PROBLEM CAN BE SORTED. ALL ITEMS CARRY A FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE.
THANKS FOR LOOKING AND HAPPY BIDDING.
