Description
Vinyl = NM / Cover = Near-Mint. 1st Press.
NOTES:David Grubbs, Jim O’Rourke’s future Gastr del Sol partner, formed Bastro after the end of Squirrel Bait; the Kentucky-born guitarist/singer recorded the band’s debut Rode Up Hard And Wet with only a former bandmate, bassist Clark Johnson, and a rhythm machine. Bringing drummer John McEntire into the lineup, the trio made Bastro Diablo Guapo, an above-average LP that embraces — but isn’t consumed by — Chicago-styled thrash noise. Rather than careen around like a rhinoceros plugged into an electric socket, Bastro stays tight, well-structured and musical, even when engaging in meltdown firepower.
Shipping in the USA is $4.99 for 1st 45 and 25 cents for each additional 45/7" vinyl.
Grading: I visual grade only by Goldmine Standards under bright lights. I do not have time to listen to all the records from start to finish but I will sample them to make sure there is no unbearable static or if I see a questionable mark, I will test it. I will sell mostly records in VG+ condition or better but will sell a small amount VG records. Anything below VG will be a harder to find or scarce record.
Grading is as follows: Near-Mint, Excellent (VG++), Very Good Plus, Very Good.
SHIPPING: UNITED STATES: 1st LP within the USA is $4.99 and 50 cents for each additional.
International SHipping will be based on weight. I pack the vinyl in padded mailers and take the vinyl outside of the jacket to prevent seam splits.
