Other Notes
This record is from the personal collection of someone who grew up in the '60s. It has been cleaned and fully played once by the seller to assess visual and auditory condition.
Grading is difficult and subjective. My definition and interpretation of record grading scales, e.g. Goldmine, may differ from yours. Although I list grades above, I feel the facts listed are better and more thorough indicators of the record's quality. In assigning grades, I tried to err on the side of caution.
If you feel the record was graded in error, please contact me before leaving neutral or negative feedback. Your satisfaction with the record and your shopping experience is important to me!
Please review my other listings, both in the recent past and in the present, to get a sense of the different grades I assign and the reasons why.
