Anders Nelson – ”Give a little, take a little” / ”Black ode to Jill (where is Jack)”, Hong Kong Diamond.

Record: VG+ to EX (Records are graded visually under very bright halogen light nad the grade is visual - sound files for your own judgement on audio... this copy has only a tiny amount of very light lines, but has storage “smudging” all over and two press-marks across run in and a few lines of groove from storage/sleeve. Might have gotten humid. These are what I would more or less like to call cosmetic faults. Nothing bad and plays very well).

PS: VG+ (mainly due to staining at top – the rest is very nice. Could be possible to remove if you’re good at that, though I haven’t tried).

Tremendous effort by this HK/Swedish artist (he was born by Swedish parents). Makes my earlobes go towards Shakers – “Who will buy these wonderful evils” because of the sinister atmosphere created by the arrangements and production. It touches so many grounds and does it perfectly balanced. My old copy - same as featured on my youtube channel (check it out - same user name as on eBay).

This is a text I found from an old eBay auction that I found very well put together.

“A - side is a Herman’s Hermits type of song – B side one of the best psychedelic singles ever!  This was one of Anders’ first solo singles after the Inspiration and the Kontinentals.  A very talented singer, writer, producer and instrumentalist Black Ode to Jill must be his finest work. Probably recorded in darkest Kowloon in the mid 60’s it has everything – impenetrable lyrics, fuzz guitar, echo, psych guitar solo and a drum sound not heard on Hong Kong recordings before. Wonderful.  Anders is still an important figure on the music scene and deservedly so.”

Grading: All records are graded visually under halogen (very strong) light. All records listed should play well regardless visual condition, but please check the sound files as there might be something I have missed or something that disturbs you more than me. Grades used are: M- (my highest grade - perfect or near perfect) / EX+ (just a tad below M-) / EX (light superficial wear) / VG+ (medium amount of superficial wear, as well as the odd light scratch, but plays well) / VG (can have quite a lot of superficial wear and lighter scratches, but should still play well) / VG- (a lot of wear and scratches - if listed it either plays well or it's a rare collectors piece regardless condition). Grading is strict and made on the basis that it would be the kind of record I'd like to receive when buying (from a collectors point of view) rather than RC or Goldmine standards.

Soundfiles are taken from the actual record for sale - sound is better in real life, in 99% of the cases. I use a Rega P3 with Audio Technica arm and a Goldring 2200 needle. It is much more fragile/receptive than a Technics.

The actual prise (what I pay) for Europe is 8.50 Euros, Rest of the world is 11 Euros. Records are sent from Italy or Sweden, depending on where I am when payment is receive.

Payment: PayPal or bank transfer.
