This is an INCREDIBLE sounding remastering and pressing of GREAT music. If you haven't heard this LP, do yourself a favor and buy it.
All records have been cleaned on a VPI 17 with VPI fluid and then rinsed with distilled water. They have been placed in new poly inner sleeves and will be shipped with the LP outside of the cover via USPS media mail with tracking.
The grades are as follows (modified Goldmine standards [mine are more rigorous]):NM - almost nothing plays this level - even sealed records!
M- - a few ticks or pops per side. Quiet background and vinyl. This rarely happens.
VG+ - More than a few ticks or pops per side. Quiet background and vinyl. The noise only rarely makes itself known and, for the most part, doesn't interfere with the music. This is about as good as it gets for pre-1965 US vinyl.
VG -The background is no longer quiet. However, for the most part, the music overpowers the noise.
VG- - The noise is sometimes intrusive.
G+ - The noise is often intrusive, but the music is usually enjoyable.
G - Only sometimes is the music enjoyable.
F (Fair) - Noisy.
P (poor) - Your stylus is at risk!!!
Ratings were made using a Basis Debut Gold II (non-vacuum) with a Basis clamp, a Graham 2.2, and a Koetsu Rosewood cartridge through an Audio Advancements (German, Brocksieper, dual mono tube) preamp and a Symphonic Line amp driving Goldmund Dialogues. Though I try to be accurate and consistent, your perception may differ. Before each side was played the stylus was Zero dusted and Stylast treated, the record was brushed clean and Zerostated.
Good luck to all! Enjoy the music!
