Description
Lots of gloss on this 1950s 78 rpm blues record. I played both sides several times. Impressive sound quality with a bare minimum of distractions. The "Tough Times" vocal is a great performance. That side has numerous light marks and very light scuffs. There is some very light groove noise; about what I expect from the old 78s. I heard a couple of isolated light pops, no repeat pops. The "Gary Stomp" side is instrumental. It evidently received less play and looks a little better. I heard no pops and hardly any groove noise. The volume and fidelity on both sides is quite excellent. As you see, the disc has lots of gloss. The labels are bright and unmarked. I tried to show the true appearance of the disc in my photos. So I included quite a few. As to grading, I am not good at it. But based on play, I will call it at least vg+. I know you will be pleased with it. Thanks.
