Description

Jean-Luc Ponty - Cosmic Messenger JVC SUPER DISKS SD 16610 Half Speed Audiophile LP on JVC Super Vinyl Condition: NEW and FACTORY SEALED
I was exposed to Ponty back in graduate school and found his fusion of smooth-progressive jazz and rock unique with occasional classical overtones taking the musical progressions to an entirely new level. Levels that only musical geniuses like Stevie Wonder and Sting provide the listener. When I found this audiophile recording I was ecstatic and bought several...to ensure I had a back-up as well as a couple copies for audiophile friends who I knew would ask. Well, I have this one left for some lucky jazz loving audiophile to enjoy.

  • LPs are not play graded! LP are visually graded under a bright 100W or greater bulb. 
  • I do not play grade for two reasons: 
    • First, every TT stylus tracks and plays differently, thus, what you hear and I hear are most likely different. 
    • Second, under the same lighting and assuming 20/20 vision, we see the same thing.
  • Please do not hold me accountable for play grade given this and my commitment to providing an accurate visual grade. 
  • Occasionally, I may miss something. If I do, please let me know and let's work it out. 
My goals are simple. 
  • Get you a rare audiophile LP that you are happy.
  • Raise some funds from sale that support a young man with autism attend a work program.
  • Avoid drama, hassle on all ends.

VISUAL GRADING (GOLDMINE STANDARD)

M  Mint - usually reserved for sealed records.

NM Near Mint is not quite perfect, has only one or two insignificant defects such as sleeve scuff or light mark. Often these lps are audibly perfect or close. Marks may be found in the entry and trail-off areas.

NM-/Excellent Near Mint-/Excellent is visually very nice, close to NM, but not quite as the lp may have a hairline or a couple of marks.

VG++ (or NM-) Extremely nice, would be NM- except for a few light hairline scratches or scuffs which do not affect play.

VG+ A nice but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It may play with a few pops or ticks but no serious problems. 

VG A well used record that still sounds OK but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
