CHRMOE SMOKE & FIRE 2 LP HOT ROD SET ROBERT WILLIAMS PICTURE DISKS

Blast First Records / Made in England / FU8

I bought this set used back in 2010.  I recorded the tracks of interest,
loaded them on to my iPod and filed this set away.  I have played these
albums at most a half dozen times since I got the set.

The last time (Dec 3, 2013) I listened critically to try to identify
any issues.  Those issues are indicated with each track below and may come
across as worse than they are since I do not remember this being an issue
when I first listened.

Two general notes: First, when I use the term "skips", it means that a word
or two of the song is missing or cut off, not that the tone arm gets stuck.
Second, some of the material sounded a bit scratchy and worn but I do not
believe the records are worn.  Rather, I believe it was because the material
used to produce the record was worn.  I believe this because typically worn
records continue to make that noise between tracks and I did not detect that
here.  Liner notes confirm this view.  Indeed, perhaps the issues below were
evident on the original material.

The jacket is intact and solid with edge wear.  Nothing too serious, but not
mint.

Please ask questions if you desire further clarification.
