Description

Velvet Underground – The Murder Mystery original LP live 1968


The Velvet Underground recorded live at La Cave, Cleveland, October 23 1968 with a nice live photo on the back.


'This is the follow-up to Live '68 recorded largely in the same month and with the same great sound... Best of all are the twenty-eight minutes of a restrained Sister Ray loaded with atmosphere, which here drifts into the final lines of The Murder Mystery... Another excellent VU live record.' (The Velvet Underground Handbook).

*Record Collector grading system:

 

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. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

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.
