Description
MC 5 High Time (CDN) Atlantic SC 8285
This is an original, 1971 Canadian Atlantic pressing of the MC 5's 3rd and final lp, "High Time". Over half the lp composed by Fred Smith. An accurate document of what this band was really all about. Vastly underrated lp, probably their best. Rare as hell in this press format (Original Canadian with all red labels).
Dead Wax Info: Side 1 has SD-8285-S1and W and (Q) all etched into the dead wax. Side 2 has SD-8285-S2 and W all etched into the dead wax. Very rare and original 1971 Canadian Atlantic press.
Vinyl Visual Grade: VG or slightly better with moderate light marking/scuffing, but nothing deep. Good gloss with some press staining. Labels show little to moderate play. A good cleaning may elevate this.
Vinyl Play Grade: VG+ with EXCELLENT fidelity and the odd tick here and there. No scratches. Great player.
Cover Visual Grade: VG+ on this heavy paste-over gatefold. Very slight rubbing and ring wear. Spine and seams are really nice. Inner gatefold is beautiful.
Comes with non-original heavy Audiophile style plastic inner.
Hello all. My name is Jamie and I have been collecting records for 40+ years. It is time to trim down my unmanageable inventory. My tastes run all over the sonic map, so there should be something for almost everyone.
ALL records will have been visually inspected under BRIGHT incandescent light with extreme scrutiny.
ALL open records will have been play graded using a Thorens TD 165 turntable and Yamaha amplifier (JBL reference headphones). Treble set high so nothing will be hidden in my grades. My grading is as follows:
M or Mint - NOT USED as there is no such thing as perfection.
NM or Near Mint - No significant markings - sealed or RARELY played.
VG+ - Minimal marking - none of which significantly affects fidelity of lp.
VG - Minimal to modest marking which affects lp but not to the point of distraction.
G - Modest marking but still VERY listenable, depending on your ears.
I WILL NOT SELL ANY LP AT LESS THAN G UNLESS THERE IS SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL VALUE ATTACHED TO THE LP.
ALL COVERS WILL HAVE DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF ALL FLAWS.
I USE PROPER RECORD MAILERS WITH STIFFENERS AND PADDED CORNERS. I HAVE BOUGHT TOO MANY RECORDS ON EBAY WITH DINGED CORNERS FROM INSUFFICIENT PACKAGING. BY PADDING THE CORNERS WITH FOLDED BUBBLE WRAP (WHICH I DO) , YOU CAN BE SURE OF RECEIVING AN LP WITH NO DAMAGE TO THE CORNERS.
SHIPPING FEES:
Shipping will be $10 U.S. for anywhere in the U.S. as long as the weight is under 500 grams after packaging.
ON PACKAGES OVER 500g, PLEASE WAIT FOR PROPER INVOICE. MOST LPS CAN BE SHIPPED AS UNDER 500 GRAMS.
Other countries (including Canada), please refer to the Canada Post rates which should be available on the ebay shipping details within the listing.
Returns accepted within 14 days (and with good reason).
I AM A REASONABLE PERSON. I WILL ONLY CHARGE FOR ACTUAL SHIPPING, AND NONE OF THE PACKAGING COSTS. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE BOUGHT ITEM, PLEASE WORK WITH ME TO FIND A SOLUTION THAT WILL BE TO YOUR LIKING. thanks for this
