Description

A couple of years back, over a couple of fun trips, I bought a huge vinyl collection from a friend who worked with me at Phantom Records (in the '90's) and who'd amassed a gigantic collection of wonderfully kept and thoroughly researched LP's, 7"s and relevant 12"s - from the classic punk era (1976-1981) was his specialty, but also records from the few years after that era, as some of those bands progressed into the mid-'80's while keeping their integrity intact (the likes of Public Image, Siouxsie, the Cure spring to mind). To give you an example of his fastidiousness, his collection included 60 different editions of the Pistols "Never Mind The Bollocks" LP - from every conceivable country, and every edition he could uncover. Anyway, he's been particular about maintaining items in their original condition - most he bought brand new at the time...(however this may mean that some he picked up second-hand weren't exactly mint to start with - those will be obvious by the gradings below). He'd been buying records I believe from about 1975/76 right up until recently. It's a truly wonderful collection; he'd not sold any of it previously so it was complete - some of the items are super rare and some are simply very nice copies of classic records - and I felt utterly privileged to be offered it first. Mostly though, YOU get to benefit from his meticulousness.

Here then, is one of the items from his collection:

COVER: ( VG+ )...front has some mild staining (very mild...see pix...barely visible)...and some pretty minor ringwear near the top...also has some scuffing on the edges and the bottom two corners have very small creases (like....very small ! )...back has ringwear, a light sticker stain, and some other obvious stains (again, see pix)...spine is very good - just has a couple of very tiny creases only...there's also some ink markings on the INSIDE of the cover (just thought it worth a mention...not a huge big deal of course)...

RECORD: ( VG++ )...very tempted to grade this higher as Side One is very close to mint...Side Two has some light scuffs/marks (only)...nothing heavy at all!)....plays beautifully!...

LABELS: (Side One: M- / Side Two: VG++ )...Side Two label has two light spots where some writing has been erased (see pix...one is more obvious than the other)...but no text has been affected at all...

If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).

Thanks for considering this item...Cheers, Jules.
