MEGA RARE PSYCH ORGAN MONSTER! THE GODS GENESIS COLUMBIA SCX 6286 STEREO BLUE/SILVER
MATRICES, MOTHERS & STAMPERS
SIDE ONE - YAX 3676-1 "1" "G" SIDE TWO - YAX 3677-1 "1" "G"
Exceptionally rare first pressing of this 1968 psych classic from The Gods with earliest possible "1G" mothers and stampers. This is the stereo version which features the weird sound effects in between tracks.
Side One of the album has a few scratches and a scuff (see pic). The first track has clicking for the first couple of minutes and there are a few occasional clicks on the rest of the side. The scuff has little impact on the sound and there are no jumps or skips. Overall I would grade as VG-.
Side Two is considerably better with just a few clicks and pops and grades EX-.
The sleeve is in VG- condition with some creasing and signs of ageing on the unlaminated rear.
Barring the clicks at the start of Side One the album generally plays very well.
Please note if you have low feedback (ie under 10) and/or a private ID you may wish to contact me before bidding as I will reserve the right to cancel bids which I suspect are not genuine. This is mainly to protect genuine bidders.
Happy bidding!
Please note I use UK Record Collector grading system for all albums with the addition of the accepted Near Mint category:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.
NEAR MINT: The record appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner
and is assumed to have been played by them
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,
despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
I try to be as accurate as possible, however, we are all human so if there are any problems please let me know.
