Description
PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER). OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.
WILDLY RARE original Violet Times/Hovercraft first (and ONLY) pressing of this shockingly revelatory comp of tracks recorded in 1974 and 1975 by these ultra obscure Velvet Underground-worshiping visionaries who shared members with like-minded proto-punk outsiders Pere Ubu and Rocket From The Tombs, among others. I bought this new at Reckless Records here in Chicago and filed it away in my private collection until today when I took these pics. Even has the original custom barcoded Reckless info label dated June, 2009 (and listed as new so you know it's legit) from when I purchased this rarity 15 years ago(!) at their Wicker Park location. A stone mint copy with four razor sharp corners and airtight provenance that can be traced to the exact month and point of purchase. Next-level collecting in a nutshell. This one is for serious collectors who will settle for nothing less than the absolute best so don't sleep punk collectors. You will not be disappointed. Good luck finding another sealed copy.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED) NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE VG+: AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG: STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR: FILLER COPY ONLY. LOTS OF SCRATCHES
