SURE TO RISE IN VALUE I HAVE ALREADY SEEN THE DECENT ONES

MORE!
VISUALLY, THE 56 YEAR
OLD THICK VINYL PLATTER IS IN EXCELLENT (EX TO
EX+) CONDITION! SHE LOOKS SEXY & SHE PLAYS GREAT!
I HAVE
EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND SEE THAT THIS THICK RARE
PLATTER HAS RETAINED MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL DEEP LUSTER...PLENTY
OF SHINE HERE!
I DO SEE SOME
LIGHT SCUFFS/HAIRLINES (MOSTLY
THE SWIRLY VARIETY) NOTHING AT ALL THAT WAS DEEP OR FEEL-ABLE. NOR WOULD ANY OF THE ABOVE
SERIOUSLY EFFECT THE OUTSTANDING LISTENING EXPERIENCE
THANKS TO THOSE WONDERFUL DEEP GROOVE
PRESSINGS!!
THE LABELS ARE EX AS WELL, THEY ARE FREE FROM ANY WRITING STICKERS OR TAPE! THEY
SHOW MINOR WEAR AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE A LIGHT SPINDLE TRAILS AS
WELL.
BASED ON THE ABOVE, THE VINYL VISUALLY GRADES EX TO EX+
ALTHOUGH I HAVE PURCHASED PLENTY FROM SOME VERY REPUTABLE
DEALERS HERE THAT WERE FAR WORSE AT
NRMT!
THE
COVER PRESENTS VERY WELL. THERE IS NO
SPLITTING, WRITING OR STICKERS ANYWHERE! THE lOWER SEAM HAS A
TINY 1" PIECE OF SUPER CLEAR TAPE NEAR THE MOUTH TO APPARENTLY
WARD OFF A POTENTIAL SPLIT. HARDLY NOTICEABLE AT ALL! THE SEAMS SHOWS WEAR BUT STILL VERY
STRONG. THE SPINE IS UN-SPLIT, STRONG TIGHT SHOWS
WEAR BUT STILL FULLY READABLE. THERE IS SOME MINOR
RING/SHELF WEAR EVIDENT MOSTLY TO THE FRONT SIDE AS SHOWN. THERE
ARE SOME CORNER DINGS/CREASES/SOILING/STAINING AS
SHOWN.
THE REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES
ARE VERY INFORMATIVE, CLEAN AND PERFECTLY READABLE &
LIGHTLY SOILED . THAT BEING SAID,
I
FEEL THAT THE COVER GRADES AS EX!
I HAVE PLAY GRADED THIS MOMENTS
AGO AND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS AWESOME! THE
FIDELITY EXCELLENT DESPITE SOME VERY MINOR BACKGROUND
NOISE HERE & THERE MOSTLY NOTICEABLE BETWEEN TRACKS AND
THE QUIET PASSAGES. I DID NOT CONSIDER THE NOISE LEVEL TO BE
OVERWHELMING OR DISTRACTING AT ALL!
THERE NO WERE
SKIPS, STICKS, REPEATS OR LOUD OR DISTRACTING POPS, TICS OR
BURPS! OVERALL THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS VERY MUCH
ENJOYABLE AND I GRADE IT NRMT- (MINUS) TO
NRMT!
OVERALL
CONSIDERING ALL OF THE ABOVE I FEEL THIS LP DESERVES A
GRADE OF EX+.

6. LETTER FROM
TINA
As
husband and wife, Ike & Tina Turner headed up one of
the most potent live acts on the R&B circuit during
the '60s and early '70s. Guitarist and bandleader Ike
kept his ensemble tight and well-drilled while throwing
in his own distinctively twangy plucking; lead vocalist
Tina was a ferocious whirlwind of power and energy, a
raw sexual dynamo who was impossible to contain when she
hit the stage, leading some critics to call her the
first female singer to embody the true spirit of rock
& roll. In their prime, the Ike & Tina Turner
Revue specialized in a hard-driving, funked-up hybrid of
soul and rock that, in its best moments, rose to a
visceral frenzy that few R&B acts of any era could
hope to match. Effusively praised by white rock
luminaries like the Rolling Stones and Janis Joplin,
Tina was unquestionably the star of the show, with a
hugely powerful, raspy voice that ranks among the
all-time soul
greats!WE
USE GOLDMINE AS GUIDELINE FOR OUR GRADING SYSTEM.
ALL
RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO
PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED
AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL
INSPECTION.
MINT
Mint records are in most cases sealed in
original shrink wrap. The only wear permissible is to the
shrink wrap
itself.
NEAR-MINT
NM records have glossy vinyl. There
are no visible defects such as writing, tape, or stickers on
the labels. The labels should not contain any spindle
marks(from someone blindly trying to put the record on the
turntable) The vinyl may have a few extremely fine hairline
scratches or light scuffs that do not affect the sound
quality. The vinyl will "appear" to have been unplayed (It may
very well have been played and well-cared for)The album cover
will have NO writing, tape, creases, folds, seam
splits,stains, ring wear or Promo holes or
cuts!
VG+(EXCELLENT)
VG+ records have glossy vinyl.
Slight signs of wear, including light scuffs,
very light scratches or slight warping that does not seriously
affect the listening experience is permissible. Very slight
intermittent background noise mostly in the quiet passages is
acceptable.
The album cover will have no more than
three of the following imperfections: light writing such as
initials or name in one area, minor creasing, seam splits not
larger than 1". Neatly taped seams of 2" or less.It may also
contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp,
punch hole or cut-out as originally
sold.
VG
VG
Records have more obvious flaws such as more pronounced
scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and scratches deep
enough to be felt with a fingernail are common. When played
there will be surface noise but it should not continuously
overpower the music. There are NO skips permissible with no
more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force. It is common to hear
crackling and pops especially in the quiet passages. The
labels may contain writing such as a persons name or initials
or it may contain a piece of tape or sticker with or without
writing. The cover may have some seam splits, writing, tape,
stickers, ring wear and scuffs.
VG-
VG- All of the defects listed VG category would be more
pronounced. The record will play through without skipping
WITH tracking
force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of
tracking force are permissible. The record will have many
obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if
the record is rare, it is still highly
collectible.
G/G+
Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not
mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put
onto a turntable and will play through without skipping
WITH tracking force. A
quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking
force are permissible. It will have significant surface noise
and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record,
the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve
will have seam splits,especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape,
writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm
the
object.
