The Spirits - So Sad / My Heart Cries
Flora Records

Lucky for all you beat and fuzz diggers out there: another copy has turned up of this beauty! Quite impossible to get. The Spirits only made this one 45 in 1967 on the great Flora Label. Probably a real small press. 'So sad' has great use of fuzz and was included in the Diggin For Gold comps. Other tune is a jangly beat tune, 'My heart cries'. Disc and sleeve are NM. Absolute Top Copy. Very lucky to turn up a second copy (personal copy of a lifetime collector). Up to you now - happy bidding!

GRADING:

Visual & spot-listening.

Please, read them!

When there are specific imperfections on a record (tags, writing, specific damage, specific imperfections in the vinyl, etc…) I will mention them together with the grading.

M : Mint. Only when the record is sealed.

NM : Near Mint.

Record = is as good as new and still very shiny. May have some minor paper scuffs or tiny hairlines. 

Sound = excellent with an occasional minor tick or a minor surface noise. 

Cover = as new with maybe the slightest signs of wear on corners, edges, spine or surface.

VG++ : Very Good++.

Record =  Still very shiny with some hairlines and some small scuffs.

Sound = is still very good with now and then a soft tick,  there is now an then a very soft surface noise on both sides. Nothing that is infecting hear-play.

Cover = very good with some scuffs on corners, edges and surface (some ring-wear).

VG+ : Very Good+.               

Record = still shiny but you can see some hairlines and/or some small scuffs across the surface. 

Sound = is still good with sometimes a mild surface noise and/or some short patches of minor, sometimes, mediocre ticking with maybe a plop here or there. Hear-play can be slightly infected in some very small zones. Overall, the sound is still dominating these imperfections. 

Cover = is still looking good but there is some wear on corners, edges and/or spine. There can be some small splits (max 0,50 cm) next to the inlet. There is some surface-wear like ring-wear or maybe some discolorations.

VG : Very Good.

Record = is not really 100 % shiny anymore. There are lines, scuffs and/or swipes across the surface. 

Sound = there is a moderate surface noise, throughout or intermittent, and/or some patches with serious ticks and/or plops. The record doesn’t skip. Hear-play is infected in some zones but the record is still fine for general listening, nothing more.

Cover = there is real wear on corners, edges and spine. There are splits in the seams, serious ring-wear or surface-wear. Look at the photo to have a better idea of the condition.

G : Good.

Record & Sound = when I put a record on Ebay with this grade then it well be a very rare one. In that case I will describe the imperfections on this record in detail.

Cover = this cover has been mended to keep it from falling apart. Look at the photo to have a better idea of the condition.
