Description
Wilcox, Sullivan, Wilcox 1973 LP "An Album of Original Music" on Goldust Records Cat# LPS-163 STEREO
An album of original music by Michael Sullivan, Judy Wilcox, and Dennis Wilcox
Folky psychedelic rock with lush male-female harmonies. Bright and brilliant finely
textured acoustic guitar work throughout. Rocks at times, goes into hillbilly country
territory at others, presents as honest folk, and it's acid influence is pervasive yet subtle.
Very rare and near-impossible to find private pressing from this New Mexico hippie group. First one I have seen in 8 years.
Lauded in the Acid Archives:
"An Album Of Original Music" 1973 (Goldust)
Hippie folk psych/singer songwriter with Eastern moves, housed in tremendous acid cover.
There is a second LP, "Tomales Bay" (Goldust, 1975) which is not as good. Apparently some players
here also appeared on the "I Love You Gorgo" LP from the El Paso label Suemi, several years earlier.

Mint (M) Perfect Condition, which basically means that it is as good as new, literally. The vinyl has to look new and sound as though it was never played, and the cover has to look untouched. Some argue that the only mint records are brand new unopened ones still in their original packing.
Near Mint (NM) Vinyl is near perfect. At most, a light scuff appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or skips. The record sleeve should also be near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no" outline sleeve.)
Very Good+
(VG+) This is the grading category where the quality of the sound is affected -- there will be some surface noise -- and the vinyl will show wear, including surface scuffs and some light scratches. However, the record is still very listenable as there are no deep scratches that cause skips. On the cover, the corners may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but not tears or holes.
Very Good
(VG) Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still plays well enough. Surface noise will probably be present, including pops and clicks. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower any pops and clicks present. There may be seam splitting, but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part still be in good condition.
Good (VG-) Vinyl is well played and looks it. However, the record should still play without skipping. It will have substantial surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic range will occur due to worn grooves. This grade depends a lot on the owner and the type of records he or she collects. A rock record may still sound ok at a high volume, but quieter styles of music will be practically unlistenable. The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.
Fair/Poor (F/P)
Using the word fair for this quality of record is, in the opinion of JRS, too generous and not recommended since it may be misleading. Records described as fair (F) or Poor (P) in the Goldmine grading system are ones that are basically unlistenable. Surface noise, skips and pops make hearing what's on the record nearly impossible, if not completely impossible. The cover is falling apart, torn, and has writing all over it. The only reason to keep it would be if the record is extremely rare or you want to eventually melt the vinyl and shape it into an ashtray.
