PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.



BIG lot of Bob Dylan & The Band on vinyl!  R.I.P. Garth.

1) Before The Flood - RARE original Indianapolis gatefold first pressing from 1974 on Asylum's sky cage label with KENDUN dead wax stamp!!!  LPs are a gorgeous VG++/NM- with a few barely visible paper scuffs.  Cover is VG/VG+ with some light wear in the top right hand corner.

2) Rock Of Ages Volume 1 - barcoded Robert Ludwig mastered Jacksonville pressing from 1980 on Capitol's green label!!!  LP is a beautiful near mint minus.  Cover is VG+/VG++ with a hint of edge wear.

I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~
MINT (SEALED) 
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED
VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE
VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL
VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE
POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
