$

153

ARTIST:   Muddy Waters 

LABEL:    Chess 1560

TITLES: I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man / She's So Pretty  

CONDITION: I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man E- / She's So Pretty  V+ ( this grade is based on the sound of the record)

DESCRIPTION: "I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man" Excellent Grooves! Plays with light tracking / surface noise and surface contains scuffs, from being slipped in and out of jackets. Music is far above surface noise  and no where dose it overpower music. Music is still loud, no groove wear or distortion. Killer Chicago Blues ! 

She's So Pretty  An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. 

I use the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:

E+  Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.

E  Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E-  Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.

V+  An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

V  Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V-  Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. 

G+  Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G  Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

F  Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P  Unplayable.
