EMORY COOK…MINI BIO!

Note: This is incredibly scare for multiple reasons. The first is that it was pressed at the Trinidad plant of Cook in 1958. Emory Cook (1913-2002) was an audio engineer who was a pioneer. He started producing records in 1952 and experimented with sound quality. He used a "binaural" system and he perfected the "Microfusion" process that used powdered vinyl rather than solid to press records. His Connecticutt plant produced records of everyday sounds and road records, and "voice of" records. He set up his plant in Port-of-Spain Trinidad for calypso and steel band music, usually recording unknown musicians from the area. Mr. Cook traveled and recorded great hard to find music from almost all the Caribbean including an Orquesta Panamericana Orquesta (Puerto Rico and recorded in 1959 from the El San Juan Intercotinental Hotel…available on CD from the Smithsonian Institute!!) All Cook's papers, masters etc were donated to the Smithsonian upon his death. Cook records are extremely difficult to find these days. This record is one of the Trinidad records, recorded Sept 17, 1958

VINYL GRADING SCALE

STILL SEALED (SS)

Mint (M) Perfect in every way. Never been played, possibly even still sealed. We usually won't grade this unless we really mean it.

Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. The record should show no obvious signs of wear.

VG++ (Excellent) RECORD WILL BE JUST IN-BETWEEN VG+ & NM (CLOSER TO NM).....Almost No Wear, No Significant Noise, No Clicks!

Very Good Plus (VG+) This will show some signs that it was played and handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. The vinyl surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't greatly affect one's listening experiences. Very light warps that do not affect the sound or tracking may be present. The label may have some light ring wear or discoloration.

Very Good (VG) Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced for this grade. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in quiet passages or during a song's intro and fade, they will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that may affect the sound. The label may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. TO BE SOLD AS IS!

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and should play through without skipping. It will have significant surface noise, scratches and visible groove wear. Labels will have heavy wear. (If its is a vinyl you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but look to upgrade down the road) TO BE SOLD AS IS!

PICTURE SLEEVE (IF ANY) GRADING SCALE:

STILL SEALED (SS) Even though a record is sealed the jacket may still have wear. This can result in a grade such as (SS VG+) (This means it is sealed but maybe it has some light ring wear from sitting for years or a very small cut in it somewhere.)

Mint (M) Perfect in every way.

Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect jacket. It should show no obvious signs of wear. The cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. Definitely no cut-out holes.

VG++ (Excellent) Almost No Wear,  No Splits, No Significant Edge Wear

Very Good Plus (VG+) Jacket will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. Possible a well-repaired seam split that is no longer highly noticeable. The jacket may have slight signs of ring wear, or may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. A VG++ will have no splits, minimal ring wear if any, etc.

Very Good (VG) The jacket can have any of the defects listed in VG+. It may have a little larger seam splits then the VG+ jacket could have. The jacket may also be marred by writing, or have tape, stickers, or their residue attached. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them. It may have larger seam splits that are carefully repaired and nearly un-noticeable. TO BE SOLD AS IS!

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) The jacket will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the look of jacket. TO BE SOLD AS IS!
