Description
JOE GIBBS & THE PROFESSIONALS State of Emergency Jamaican 10 track LP
prod. by Errol T. (Thompson) & Joe Gibbs
Joe Gibbs Record Globe JG 006 / DSR 2784/2731 (matrix), (-76) ?; EX+/M-
Made in Jamaica; 10 tracks on brilliant vinyl in sleeve w/ slight ringwear.
Hard to date; I bought this in early 80's, so... it is either original or a quick reissue.
This is disc one in Greensleeves' Evolution Of Dub Volume 4: Natural Selection
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I saw the vinyl: it's like map of
the Moon! To my utter astonishment it plays through without a single jump
and w/ minimal Jamaican snaps or crackling. Besides that, the sound quality
is BRILLIANT, crystal clear and balanced - perhaps the best sounding pressing
I have ever heard in this Very Cra??y Looking category ; )
1. Bounty Hunter
2. Rawhide Kid
3. Donald Quarrie
4. High Noon
5. The Great Escape
6. Walls Of Jericho
7. Wicked And Dreadful
8. Revenge
9. I Shot The President
10. State Of Emergency
Sorry for the incomplete sleeve scan! This sleeve/disc grading is
relative and can only be compared to other Jamaican pressings.
PLEASE see if You find some more interesting items from my promotional and other rare records!
Sleeve / record grading
Note: All grading is done by eye (jacket first), with more than 30 years of experience. I have tried to be VERY strict to avoid nasty surprises. (Standard jewel cases NOT graded.) Your money back, if my grading is false! I hate deceitfully upgrading sellers, too!
Ringwear, adhesive tape, price tags or their remains, pen markings et al are separately noted.
Sealed = Not opened. The shrink wrap or other seal may be slightly torn but clearly the record has never been taken out of its cover.
M (Mint) = Perfect, looks like never been played - but of course You can never be absolutely sure.
M- = Near mint, has been to a Good Owner, who played it very carefully and probably not many times.
EX+ (Excellent +) = Has been to a Good Owner or two, who played it carefully and handled it as well as You or I but there are minor signs of use.
May have remains of price tag glue.
EX = A record that is clearly a used one but should satisfy most collectors. Possibly light scratches. Sleeve corners or edges may be slightly worn, but no seams are split. May have remains of price tag glue; all these are explained.
I don't sell records in condition worse than EX, unless they belong to an interesting collection.
If a compact disc looks suspicious, I'll play it and if does not cooperate, I won't even try to sell it!
I have used this grading successfully in Finland and I apologize, if it differs substantially from gradings You are more familiar with.
P&P applies to Economy Mail to all destinations. If You want to "upgrade" it to Priority, please contact me!
For registration (the only possible way to get a receipt from Finnish Post) and/or multiple
winning bids, I shall contact You - if not, please contact me = ))
Thanks and good luck!
