Description
Artist: Badger
Title: One Live
Details: - The Label claims its a `Bootleg`, the clue is in the matrix/run out groove number Run out/Matrix side 1 K40473 A1 / side 2 K40473 B1 - Mother A1 (this is the cat number of the UK Atlantic release) notice too the A1 mother stamper 1st ever run off - I reckon this is probably the actual live concert 1st mix that eventually became the `Atlantic` album release as I can`t hear any real difference `Musically` from my UK copy! However there is a difference to my ears in the dynamics where as the `released copy definitely has a more produced smoother sound this one is more edgy definitely a `Louder Cut` (drums seem more powerful) has slightly longer applause in places - the information on the label as you can see is just obscure (the album was actually recorded at the Rainbow Theatre in 1972 not at the Royal Oak Ale House, Hazel - which I doubt actually exists) - I doubt there were ever more than a handful of these pressed - maybe just for the band/producer as test pressings

I use professionally made packers with card stiffeners & record removed from album cover
Gradings: I use the standard UK gradings as set out in Record Collector Magazine below:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Near Mint, EX+, VG+ etc are acceptable additions to help `fine tune` descriptions for the buyer
