R&B-SOUL 45: NIGHT-DREAMERS 'Pitiful' PRIVATE LISTEN

$

76

Continuing with the liquidation of my record collection passing them on to people who can more appreciate them.I continue with items
from my collection of nearly 40,000 promo singles, LP's & CD's from the 60's thru the 90's that I was fortunate to acquire from doing 35 years of Rock Radio.
All of my records are guaranteed original pressings.
In the 80's I advertised and auctioned off thousands of records in Goldmine magazine under the name of Hemp's Hits.
If you are a previous customer, you already know of my integrity as an honest dealer.
Those of you who are not familiar with me need only to check my Feedback. You can bid and buy with complete confidence.

The most important thing you need to know, is that to the absolute best of my knowledge,
nearly all of the records I list, unless otherwise noted, have never ever been played on a turntable.

These records were sorted, stored, moved a few times, and then stored again for decades. Some carefully, others were not.
All of my gradings are strictly visual, and more often than not, quite generous. However, because of various quality in pressings,
I cannot guarantee that the pressings themselves will be noise-free. That comes with the territory.
Many 50's (e.g. Chess, Vee-Jay, etc.) & 60's pressings, especially the small independent labels, were pressed "on-the-cheap" and are noisy even at NrMint.

I will not play these records for any reason. The record you receive will be like new and unplayed.
If there are any imperfections, it will be from many years of storage, or more likely a "not-so-great" pressing.
I will also not attempt to tell you if I think the song is "funky-terrific", "psych-fabulous" or the like. My opinion, would be just that...an opinion.

MY GRADING SCALE

Grading below is for the disc only. I'll throw in the corresponding sleeve when possible.
Sleeves show some natural wear from 40 years of storage. Many are perfect, others are not.
(remember...unless noted,these records, to the best of my knowledge have never been played)

NM (Near Mint): Record will show no serious scuffs or scratches in the playing area. May have minor scuffs on edges from
decades of storage, or a small scuff, scratch or paper scuff on playing area. It's near mint, not mint (which would be 'sealed' to me)
M- (Near Mint minus): A scuff or two or light scratch or two on either or both sides.
VG+: Scuffs and some minor scratches in the playing area. Some will most likely be heard.
VG: Many scuffs or scratches that will be heard but record should play fine.

Record grading is subjective. That's why I offer a money back guarantee on
everything I sell (no refunds on shipping charges). Bid with complete confidence.

THE NIGHT-DREAMERS  - "Mr. Pitiful / I Can't Help It"   
Unplayed PRIVATE RELEASE PROMO 45rpm
Visually Graded Condition of disc:  Near Mint  (never been played)
(one tiny scratch. This private label logo, is in my top 10 favorites...and that's out of some 40,000 singles! "Frogdeath"??? The logo is hilarious. Just look closely at the label.
Fun text included: "Produced by Little Stevie Crosmo-whoever that is" (actually he was a Texas on-air DJ), and on the flip side it says: "For best results,
use RIAA curve-whatever that means". Very rare disc. Only one copy available)


YOU CAN HEAR THIS RECORD WITH THE LINK BELOW. THE CLIP IS FROM A COPY FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION.
THE COPY YOU WILL GET WILL BE UNPLAYED.
I USE A SHURE V-15 CARTRIDGE TIED FOR MONO FOR MY MONO 45'S TO MINIMIZE NOISE
YOUR RECORD COULD SOUND DIFFERENT USING A STEREO CARTRIDGE


You can hear a clip from the top side (at 64k) HERE
(Need I mention that your record will sound much better than this low-fi file?)
