ARTIST / TITLE The Beatles
From Me To You
Please Please Me
RECORD LABEL / NUMBER VJ 581
(purple label)
The vinyl is in overall VG+ condition
Surface of disc has some light scuffs and light scratches - surface is smooth and no marks are detectable to the touch. The wax has a generally clean shine as the pictures show. The sound is loud and clear with very light background noise. Relatively clean purple labels sans Please Please Me side has a name in pencil which blends into the label. Small instances of print chipping, this is pictured in the images here, also some very light contact wear. This is both a visual as well as a play grade. No skips w/ clean and continuous playback! Check out a few samples direct from playback.

Again, this is an early one and rather rare with a higher than average book value. While this one is not in mint condition, it plays excellent and will definitely make a nice addition to any extensive Beatles collection.

"Goldmine Standard" grading:
SS = Still Sealed
Never opened. Any flaws (torn shrinkrwrap, creasing) will be indicated in the description.
NM- = Near Mint Minus
Has been opened, but is still flawless
with no damage whatsoever.
VG+ = Very Good Plus
- Vinyl: May have scuff marks and signs of some wear but will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only "barely detectable" crackles or pops. A slight noise at the begining is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless.
- Cover: May only have the slightest signs of normal wear.
The majority of records (worth selling) fall under this grade.
- Vinyl: May crackle, pop or make other annoying noises, but only occasionally,never continuously, and not more loudly than the music being listened to.
- Cover: Normal used cover wear such as ring wear and split seams. If there is abnormal damage such as tears or markings, but the seller still feels that it qualifies as a
"VG", the damage must be described in comments attached to the item.
G+ = Good Plus
- Vinyl: May have continuous crackles, pops, etc... but not so loud as to make the music completely unenjoyable for the casual listener.
- Cover: More than normal wear and tear.
Jackson Heights were an English rock band, led by bassist and vocalist Lee Jackson, that ran from 1970 to 1973. Other players included Brian Chatton (born Brian Charles Chatton, 19 July 1948, Bolton, Lancashire), Dave Watts (ex-Tornados; from Bromley, Kent) playing keyboards and King Crimson's drummers Michael Giles and Ian Wallace.
Their debut album King Progress included a reworking of "The Cry Of Eugene", a track originally by The Nice on their first album, The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack, as well as original material including "Doubting Thomas" and "Insomnia".
Vocalist John McBurnie would later work with Patrick Moraz, who was in Refugee with Jackson.
