 ELF (Ronnie James DIO)

Year Released: 1972

 


   

 

Cover EX+ (Single. Non-laminated.)

 

 LP EX+ (Some superficial abrasions. LP plays NM.)

 

The LP needs cleaning!!!

 Vinyl is visually graded under bright, natural light. 

If LP is visually graded NM or NM-, vinyl IS NOT audio tasted.

If visual grading is EX+ or lower, vinyl IS audio tested in problematic parts.


I listen to all my records on the gramophone TECHNICS SL1200 MK2. It is a manual operated gramophone, and if LP plays without any problems after placing the tonearm on it, I consider it to be playable.

Label - EX+ (Spindle marks.)

 Inner Sleeve - EX (Original. One side is ripped.)



 

 

GRADING SYSTEM


RECORD

NM No visible surface marks and plays without any surface background noise.

NM- One or two very light surface marks, marks do not cause any problems, and records play without any surface background noise.

EX+ One or two light surface marks, maybe some occasional light surface background noise, or a few very light ticks.

EX Few surface marks, maybe some occasional surface background noise and occasional ticks, possible paper marks.

VG+ Few surface marks. There will be some surface background noise. Some ticks during playback, still an enjoyable record.

VG Surface marks. There will be surface background noise. Ticks during playback.


The VG is used only to grade sought out/ very rare LPs that are in poor condition but can be used as collection filler!

NM Crisp and clean with no creases/ bends or discoloration.

NM- Crisp and clean, with maybe one or two small creases or discoloration, common with age.

EX+ Clean but maybe minor creases or discoloration.

 While these grades are useful as a general guide, each LP is given a more accurate detailed description in the listing.
