CONDITION:

Inner sleeve .... new poly
Vinyl ................ VG visual, some surface scratches and one concentric scuff on side III;  EX Play Grade, no audible groove wear, very low background noise. This is a high quality pressing on clear vinyl stock. Test play was on a Technics SL-D205 direct drive turntable with a Shure M97-XE tracking at 1.25 grams.

SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES: The pressings are unofficial but high quality pressings on high quality vinyl stock. The labels are hand cut and handwritten, so these may be either test pressings or possibly an "in house" one off, or very few for audition purposes. (I speculate based on the basis no other copies have appeared) The matrix info in the dead wax has no further notation nor producer info. The October 17 1975 concert at the Roxy is hard to find on any format (not to be confused with the more widely produced 1978 concert) The 1975 concert was recorded and aired live on radio KWEST FM. This is a more intimate smaller venue, and at an earlier point in Bruce's career. The sound quality is clean and well defined, not a cheap lo-fi reproduction.

Record Grading Scale

M Mint USA issues should be still sealed (ss) and no shelf wear is present on the cover and shrink. Mint can sometimes be an unsealed 45, or import LP, or usa LP originally issued without shrink, and on rare occasion an opened mint record, which must appear unplayed and be flawless in every way.

NM "Near mint or "M-" the record appears brand new, perhaps unplayed.
NM has no groove wear, plays exactly like a brand new record, The surface may have a small inaudible scuff or two, as sometimes found on a brand new just opened record.

EX/ VG++ "excellent" still a nearly perfect record except for several light scuffs, or a hairline scratch. An Ex record has been previously played although the groove appears unworn. EX reproduces music supremely well, in full fidelity and dynamics and free of distortion. There maybe several light ticks between tracks or during quiet passages.

VG+ very good plus may have more visible scuffs and scratches, although these will be superficial and inaudible. The groove will still appear lustrous with perhaps the first visible indication of scoring or wear. VG+ plays almost perfectly, maybe a trace of intermittent distortion during loud passages, maybe several ticks between tracks or during quiet passages.

VG Very good is the typical used record with light surface scratches and/or light to moderate groove wear. Play will produce audible noise and distortion in varying degrees, usually better on a lower resolution mass produced record player, but sometimes not so cleanly on a high resolution system.

VG- will have visible groove wear plus an additional issue such as a deeper scratch which produces an audible tick, or perhaps cosmetic detractors such as writing on the label.

G "good" plays through the continuous groove without skipping, (thus said to be good) usually more advanced spindle wear and visible groove wear which will produce noise and distortion. "Good" may have a deeper scratch that produces a repeater tick.

"fair to poor" is not good, may fail to play properly, may be cracked or chipped, or produces more noise than music, a worn out record.

My grading scale is based upon the Goldmine standard. All records are graded visually. Some records will be play graded. Play grade will always be on a high resolution audiophile system, cartridge and stylus shape specified, so the buyer can make a more informed decision. I am a hifi enthusiast as well as a professional musician, qualified to accurately grade a record to meet or exceed the audiophile's expectation.
