ARTIST:-  DESMOND DEKKER AND THE ACES

TITLE : DEKKER'S SWEET 16 HITS

(for track listing and other information, please see photos)

Cat No : TRLS 154

Label : TROJAN

Issue : UK 1978 - STEREO ( * A1/B1 1st PRESSING * )

Matrix/Stamper codes: TRLS 154 A1 and TRLS 154 B1

Condition : Disc = VERY GOOD+ / Sleeve = VERY GOOD+

A Very Good+ condition disc. A few surface marks/scuffs - mainly faint hairline marks from the record being taken out of its sleeve over the years. A few minor spindle marks. Original STEREO mixes of both sides. No skips, jumps, sticking, warps, deep scratches or writing on labels. Very good sound quality generally, although there are a few 'pops' here and there. Tested on a Thorens turntable.

Sleeve is in Very Good+ condition, with some slight general wear, and a slight mark to the front top right corner where a sticker has been removed years ago. This is quite difficult to see. No major creasing. No splits or edge wear. Spine in very good condition with only minor wear (see photo), and all text is clearly legible. 

Supplied in plain white inner sleeve which has some age-related discolouration.


GRADING:

All records are graded using the 'Record Collector' format:

MINT (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
