Condition: 
Label on "That's What I Like" side has date of "4/19/67" written in ink on it. Labels otherwise very clean with light ringwear. Vinyl: both sides rate a stunning, as-new NM. A beautiful example of this rare 45. 

This comes from the estate of a man who ran a Christian radio station out of his basement in the 1960s, but who also received a lot of rare, mostly promotional soul, funk. psych and Latin 45s from small labels, which he impeccably kept in filing cabinets in his basement. Please see my other listings for more rare soul from his remarkable collection. 

My grading system:

STILL SEALED : Jacket imperfections, if any, will be described. Vinyl guaranteed to be in unplayed condition


M : I don't use this grade, on the assumption that no record or jacket is truly flawless.


M- : Vinyl appears unplayed, jacket bears no signs of wear. I rarely, if ever, use this grade. 


NM : Like M-, with possible scintilla/whiff of an imperfection


VG++ : May have a couple very minor imperfections. (superficial marks that have little or no bearing on sound.) Jacket may have a couple very minor flaws.


VG+ : Like VG++, but with a few more light imperfections


VG : Several light imperfections, and possibly one or two more serious ones, such as small feelable scratches. Still plays well.  


VG- : Will display numerous minor imperfections and/or feelable scratches that affect playback quality. Between you and me, you could do better. 


GOOD : What I consider pretty poor... numerous major imperfections. I generally don't sell items in this range unless they are of major significance.
