Artist:   Melba Montgomery

Title:   Don't Keep Me Lonely Too Long

Format:   LP

Label:   Musicor

Disc Grade:      VG+   EXCELLENT SOUND FIDELITY, GREAT GLOSS, LOOKS NOT PLAYED MUCH (LABELS WITH A FEW VISIBLE SPINDLE MARKS), very faint surface marks (mostly just a few paper/storage rubs and a few light dust 'wisps') on glossy surfaces,, very very light age-related background noise occasionally heard way behind audio at light momemts only (an occasional faint 'snip' heard way behind audio here and there),  NO PENETRATING MARKS, NO SKIPS OR STICKS, NO NOISE

Sleeve:    VG+    unfortunately someone got duped into the aftermarket plastic outer sleeve that folds into the inner sleeve opening and glues itself just inside the inner sleeve opening (see last pic). I've tried to remove these with a plastic razor blade which sometimes works but other times pulls up some of the cardboard. Might also try heating up the adhesive? Otherwise this is a really nice VG++ sleeve,, ringwear seen in photos is on the plastic,, light corner wear, sparce edge chipping at top edge only, one 1" edge crease

                                                          GRADING

*Our records are professionally and conservatively graded using a strict interpretation of Goldmine Price Guide's internationally adopted record grading standard....please shop with complete confidence!

*All records are professionally cleaned with VPI HP-17 record cleaner before grading

SS = Still Sealed; New M  = Mint; I rarely ever use this grade..only if an open record appears to have never been out of its inner sleeve M- = Mint Minus; A near perfect probably unplayed cpy VG+ = Very Good Plus; close to like new with only superficial signs of use that won't affect paly. Only well cared for records will grade out VG+. Will satisfy all but the most demanding collector VG = Very Good; A used, reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still quite nice VG- = Very Good Minus; significant wear and marks and usually quite noticable surface noise. G+ = Good Plus; A heavily scuffed, noisey sounding record
