JAMES CARR - YOU GOT MY MIND MESSED UP
Original 1967 US Mono First Pressing — Goldwax Records (LP-3001) An absolute holy grail of Southern/Memphis Deep Soul, presented in breathtaking condition. This original 1967 mono pressing features some of the finest vocal performances in rhythm and blues history, including the definitive version of "The Dark End Of The Street" and "Pouring Water On A Drowning Man". Offered by trusted rare artifact dealer Idlemynd2 (also known as FredTheDog Records on Discogs). We maintain a flawless reputation for precise grading, professional packing, and elite customer service. CONDITION DETAILS Jacket/Sleeve: NEAR MINT (NM)

  • Shrink Wrap: Still completely enclosed in its original factory shrink wrap.
  • Structure: Incredibly sharp corners, flat seams, and zero ring wear. No splits, tears, or staining.
  • Spine: Completely intact and readable through the shrink.
  • Labels: Near Mint. Crisp blue Goldwax labels with no spindle marks, writing, or fading. (Matrix: 3001-MA / 3001-MB with Delta Δ10098 etching).
Vinyl / Audio: EXCELLENT (EX)
  • Visual: Brilliant original factory gloss. Free of handling scuffs, hairlines, or sleeve pull marks.
  • Factory Defect: Track B5 ("She's Better Than You") features a minor visual factory vinyl defect incurred during manufacturing, bringing the visual/audio grade to a conservative EX.
  • Play-Grade Report: We play-tested this copy in its entirety on two separate vintage audiophile setups to ensure absolute grading transparency. The record tracks perfectly and plays flawlessly with deep, punchy mono fidelity throughout. Track B5 does not skip or loop on either setup; it only produces a few minimal, faint clicks over the factory mark that do not overpower the music.
  • Audio Sample Provided: Please listen to the attached actual audio clip of track B5 recorded directly from our playback test to hear the exact sound profile over this minor defect.
TEST BENCH GEAR PROFILES
