Cover Grade: Excellent (EX) *cut-out hole lower lh corner, some air bubbles under paper at top (see photo) Notes: The Ohio Express, one of the great bubblegum "bands," actually began as a jack-of-all-trades garage band, as this album shows. The album is actually made up of recordings made by three different bands. The duo cut the song "Beg, Borrow and Steal" in 1965 with a New York band called The Conquests, who they renamed the Rare Breed.  They would put it out again under the name Ohio Express and the song was a small hit. They drafted in the Ohio band Sir Timothy & the Royals, brought them to N.Y.C., and quickly cut an album that's filled with some really strong songs and performances, including some stomping garage rock ("Hard Times" and a take on the Standells' "Try It"). The third band with songs on the album were recorded by another Ohio-based garage band, The Measles, who featured a young Joe Walsh on guitar. The album ends up as an enjoyable garage pop nugget.(AllMusic)  All photos are actual images of the item for sale.

Thank you for visiting dBeat Records !
GRADING STANDARDS: (M) Mint: Record and cover appear absolutely perfect in every way.  Grade is seldom used, even with sealed albums where the record itself can only be assumed to be mint.
(NM) Near Mint: Vinyl is shiny with no obvious signs of wear and plays perfectly with no audible imperfections. Cover is close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. 
(EX or VG++) Excellent /Very Good ++: Record or jacket has a minimum of audible or visual imperfections. Vinyl has been handled and played very carefully. Light paper scuffs and/or spindle marks may be visible with no appreciable lessening in sound quality. Covers show very minor signs of handling and wear. 
(VG+) Very Good Plus: Record displays light scuffs, spindle marks or very light scratches that may create some noise disturbances, but don't affect one's overall listening experience. Jacket begins to show more prominent signs of storage wear and aging.
(VG) Very Good: Defects are more pronounced with visible signs of handling and playing. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially during soft passages and a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, although none of the flaws should be overwhelming. 
(G) Good / (G+)Good Plus: Vinyl will have scratches and visible groove wear. Record plays without skipping, although noticeable surface noise or ticks will be heard. Jackets have even more pronounced defects such as seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear, water damage or other defects.
