Description

Rare Michigan garage psych 45 with proto punk feel by TNS on their private label 111372 : Time's Up b/w Telling Your Fortune. This is an obscure single by a West Michigan band from the early 70's. Both sides are good, but 'Time's Up' is definitely the better side. This group sounds like half the members came from Iggy and the Stooges and the other half were in The Up! Labels show light wear and the record play grades VG overall on the 'Time's Up' side and a weak VG to VG- on the flip side. Please see my other auction. Click on the microphone icon to hear an unaltered soundclip of the actual record being offered here.

Grading Scale:

NM = A near perfect record in every way. Record shows no obvious signs of wear.

VG++ = Somewhere between VG+ and Near Mint.

VG+ = Record has been played, but previous owner took good care of it. Record will have light scuffs or light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. VERY little to no background/surface noise will be heard while the record is playing.

VG = Light to moderate Background/surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's fade and intro. This background noise will not overpower the music otherwise, however. Groove wear and light scratches (deep enough to affect sound) will be noticeable. Still a nice record.

VG- = Somewhere between VG and G+.

G/G+ = Significant surface noise upon playing. Scratches and visible groove wear will be evident. Record will play through without skipping or sticking however.

Fair/Poor = I do not ever sell records at this grade, but they would be cracked, severly warped, with skips or sticks, or have obvious signs of HEAVY play. Basically it will serve better as a coaster than a record.

I grade strictly by Goldmine's standards. Please ask questions before you bid. I accept Pay Pal or M.O.
