Description
For sale is an original (not a repress) example of rare Northern Soul 45 "Roar Of The Crowd/Lost Love" by The Grand Prixs, on the black and silver Tina Records label, 1014. Matrix 1014A, circle symbol, triangle symbol 61469 on "Lost Love" side, 1014B, circle symbol, srn (?) and triangle 61469-X on "Roar of the Crowd" side.
Condition: Label on "Lost Love" side has date written in ink "5/15/66" in ink. Labels otherwise very clean. Vinyl rates NM. A stellar example of this rare record.
This comes from a remarkable collection of 45s owned by a DJ who ran a radio station out of his basement from 1965-1969, when you could do that sort of thing. His 45s were impeccably kept in file cabinets and in remarkable condition, with a heavy emphasis on soul, Latin and psychedelic music, much of it small label.
My grading system:
STILL SEALED : Jacket imperfections, if any, will be described. Vinyl guaranteed to be in unplayed condition.
M : I don't use this grade, on the assumption that no record or jacket is truly flawless.
M- : Vinyl appears unplayed, jacket bears no signs of wear. I rarely, if ever, use this grade.
NM : Like M-, with possible scintilla/whiff of an imperfection
VG++ : May have a couple very minor imperfections. (superficial marks that have little or no bearing on sound.) Jacket may have a couple very minor flaws.
VG+ : Like VG++, but with a few more light imperfections
VG : Several light imperfections, and possibly one or two more serious ones, such as small feelable scratches. Still plays well.
VG- : Will display numerous minor imperfections and/or feelable scratches that affect playback quality. Between you and me, you could do better.
GOOD : What I consider pretty poor... numerous major imperfections. I generally don't sell items in this range unless they are of major significance.
