I guarantee your satisfaction with any record that is purchased from my collection. I have been selling, buying, collecting and enjoying records for over 50 years and I know how to accurately describe the condition of a record. I am a long time fan of Rock 'n' Roll. Each record that I offer for sale is from my own private collection unless otherwise noted. I have never bought records at garage sales or flea markets. Most were purchased new, handled and stored with care and played on a high end turntable. Please remember that these records are not new, they are used and many are 40-50 years old. My description of the condition of records is based on play testing unless otherwise noted.

From my collection, purchased new, this is an original from 1962. The second pressing of the extremely hard to find "The Fabulous Wailers" LP #CR3075 on Golden Crest Records. This original mono recording, with the cover photo in black and white, is listed in Goldmine at $100 NM. This is the real deal and it is in Near Mint condition. It includes the original mail-back postcard provided by the record company. See the entire song list on the attached pictures.

I play tested the record and I would grade it as Near Mint, my highest rating. The record has no marks or scuffs of any kind, labels are perfect and It looks, plays and sounds like a NEW record from the store. The jacket is Mint, no wear, no color fading and perfect seams. The original poly-lined paper inner sleeve is also like new.

My overall grading is based on Goldmine's standard as follows:
Near Mint (NM): The vinyl shows no obvious signs of wear with high luster and sound quality. The jacket/sleeve has no noticeable defects. This is my highest rating as seldom can a record or jacket be considered mint.

Very Good Plus (VG+): The vinyl shows light signs of having been played with high luster and may have some faint scuffs or scratches that are not audible. Sound quality remains high but may have some light noise in dead wax or soft areas. The jacket/sleeve will show slight shelf-wear on edges & corners but will not stray far from original state.

Very Good (VG): The vinyl has been played but has no major loss in sound quality despite light scratches and dulling. Will probably have light surface noise that is more audible in dead wax and at soft areas but does not overpower music. The jacket/sleeve has normal wear such as light ring-wear, bumped corners, edge wear, ink rub off etc.

Good Plus (G+): The vinyl has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated (such as pops, crackling, hissing) but doesn't skip or repeat. The jacket/sleeve may have folding, scuffing of edges, split seams, discoloration, etc.

Good (G): The vinyl is playable but has considerable surface noise and may skip or repeat. The jacket/sleeve may have split seams, tears, stains or writing on them. These would be considered “Collection filler only”.
