Vinyl LP Record - Freddie Roach - Brown Sugar - BLUE NOTE JAZZ 1964 1st PRESS!
This copy is BST 84168 - the ORIGINAL STEREO master.
Yes, it has the VAN GELDER stamp in the deadwax and the mastering is SO GOOD! AMAZING part of Jazz history.
Outer Sleeve Grade: G+ (Both top and bottom seams are about halfway split. Looks pretty good in an outer sleeve, but there is also ringwear, etc - see photos)
Vinyl Grade: VG- (Downgrading for smudging on label as well as visible scratches/scuffs. Overall, the record plays closer to VG. There is audible noise throughout, but it plays better than it looks. If you're not too picky in looking for a copy of this super rare record, you'll be satisfied.)
RECORD HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED ON VPI VACUUM TABLE. VERY LITTLE DUST. READY TO PLAY!
My Grading Scale for Vinyl:
NM: I will only use this when selling a BRAND NEW SEALED RECORD.
VG+: Record may have a few scuffs/hairlines but will otherwise look great. Should sound great as well - no major crackling or hissing to distract from enjoyment of playback on even the best equipment. If you are super sensitive to this stuff, stick to VG+ and up.
VG: Record may have some scratching/scuffing/blemishes. May have some light crackling/hissing during playback or a few audible pops. Record will still be satisfactory for 90% of parties and circumstances - a fine daily player on all systems, perfect for parties. If you have a lower end system or you don't mind a little crackling on playback, you should be good to go with VG records.
VG-: Record may have a few major scratches or audible crackling/hissing during entire playback. If you're looking for a nice budget copy of a great album, VG- is fine and it'll still probably sound decent on a low end system with heavy tracking force. If you aren't picky at all and just want to put the album on and listen to it, you'll enjoy a VG- record.
G+: I'll generally only grade a record G+ if there's something wrong with it, like a warp that makes the first part of a song unplayable or something. If you're looking at a G+ record of mine, READ THE FULL DESCRIPTION.
