Grading:
Box - Fair condition. Minor area of damage on face. Has been repaired, around the edges, in the past with black tape.
White Label / Test Pressing - Side A (Good)
A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white).
White Label / Test Pressing - Side B (Good Plus)
A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white).
Beggar Julia's Time Trip - Side A (Very Good)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
Beggar Julia's Time Trip - Side B (Very Good)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
I have play tested these LP's on a Garrard SP25 MkIV Turntable and have tried to grade them as accurately as possible. If anything I have erred on the side of caution and slightly under-graded these items.
