Description
Marshall Hooks & Co.
Essential blues/funk by Marshall Dock Hooks (guitars and vocals); John Goines (drums and percussion); Ron Simpkins (organ, piano and celeste) and Jim Suard (bass).
This is a excellent copy of this very rare Blue Horizon album. Great bluesy funk by Marshall Hooks & Co produced by Mike Vernon – and even rarer with this being a white label test pressing!!!
Side One: Hookin’ It – Part One; Time Is Running Out On You; Blow My Mind; I Want The Same Thing Tomorrow; Lived, Loved, Won And Lost.
Side Two: Facts Of Life; I’m Just A Simple Man; Reality; Hookin’ It – Part Two.
The album is on Blue Horizon Records, 2431 003. Matrix side one: 2431003 (written, corrected from 2431001) A//1 (stamped). Matrix side two: 2431003 (written, corrected from 2431001) B//1 (stamped).
1970. UK pressing. Stereo. White label.
Condition: (as Record Collector's grading system. If I see a mark it will be mentioned however light/small, including from the usual very light paper scuffs/marks - usually caused by record being removed from the inner sleeve, which appear on nearly all old records and which are only visible under strong light)
Vinyl side 1: excellent (one or two very light marks can be seen under bright light that do not affect the audio in any way, plays without fault).
Vinyl side 2: excellent (one or two very light marks can be seen under bright light that do not affect the audio in any way, plays without fault).
Cover (unlaminated): very good (corner and edge wear, ring wear on back, a few creases, writing front top left, name written back top right - see photos below).
The record plays great with no jumps, skips or clicks and minimal crackle.
I have tried to give my honest opinion as to the condition. I will give a complete refund to the buyer if they are not happy with the record.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM:
MINT: I very rarely use the mint grade. Only records that are still sealed or records that even under the strongest of lights are completely unmarked. Also covers that are unmarked/uncreased in any way and still look brand new.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is no lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: 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: 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: 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: 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: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
