Description

THE VALENTINES Blam Blam Fever / BABA BROOKS original UK Doctor Bird 7"

THE VALENTINES (= THE SILVERTONES aka THE DREADLOCKS) Blam Blam Fever (Gunsfever) //
BABA BROOKS AND HIS RECORDING BAND The Scratch

Prod. by Sonia Pottinger

Doctor Bird DB-1065, -67;  -/EX-
Made in UK; 2 tracks on 7 inch vinyl in plain bag;
Tiny WOL: "MP".  Lots of scuffs but actually has not suffered much from use:
some crackling, mostly in beginnings; original sound quality is very good.
B side has a horrible looking, long scratch (!) but does not jump
and snaps only lightly and half a dozen times.

A serious note: This is an original item, not a reissue!

As all my reggae 7-inchers, I bought this around turn of 70s/80s; some were
new, some 2nd hand, but all these pressings are ca. 30 years old - or more.
And, although I have kept them well, the vinyl quality is usually cra??y and
more often than not the disc is pressed off-centre. Please keep these in mind!

In case You want Your packet Registered - my recommendation - just let me know
and I'll add USD 6.50 to Your Invoice! (This does not apply to packets w/ 12" or lp.)
If You win many bids, Your total P&P shall naturally be reduced to actual cost.

UNFORTUNATELY I CAN NOT PROVIDE SOUND CLIPS.

PLEASE see if You find some more interesting items from my original Jamaican 7-inchers and lp's,
promotional and other rare records!


Sleeve / record grading

Note: All grading is done by eye (jacket first), with more than 30 years of experience. I have tried to be VERY strict to avoid nasty surprises. (Standard jewel cases NOT graded.) Your money back, if my grading is false! I hate deceitfully upgrading sellers, too!
Ringwear, adhesive tape, price tags or their remains, pen markings et al are separately noted.

Sealed = Not opened. The shrink wrap or other seal may be slightly torn but clearly the record has never been taken out of its cover.

M (Mint) = Perfect, looks like never been played - but of course You can never be absolutely sure.

M- = Near mint, has been to a Good Owner, who played it very carefully and probably not many times.

EX+ (Excellent +) = Has been to a Good Owner or two, who played it carefully and handled it as well as You or I but there are minor signs of use.
May have remains of price tag glue.

EX = A record that is clearly a used one but should satisfy most collectors. Possibly light scratches. Sleeve corners or edges may be slightly worn, but no seams are split. May have remains of price tag glue; all these are explained.

I don't sell records in condition worse than EX, unless they belong to an interesting collection.
If a compact disc looks suspicious, I'll play it and if does not cooperate, I won't even try to sell it!
I have used this grading successfully in Finland and I apologize, if it differs substantially from gradings You are more familiar with.

P&P to all destinations applies to Economy Mail; if You want it upgraded to Priority, please contact me!

For registration (the only possible way to get a receipt from Finnish Post) and/or multiple
winning bids, I shall contact You - if not, please contact me = )) 
 
Thanks and good luck!
