Description

DOWNES OPEN MUSIC - ELECTRIC CITY.........1970
Label: Vertigo
Cat. No. 6360 005 Stereo

This album was bought from a friend during his clearout many years ago. Unfortunately he'd written the selling price on the front in biro! If only we knew then, what we know now!!!   I've only played it a few times but it's not my sort of music so I just filed it away with my other albums.  There are a few very light scuff marks on side 2, but as I'm listening to it now, it doesn't seem to cause any clicks or pops at all. The record has no other marks or scratches, side 1 looks perfect. There are no noticeable spindle trails. The inner sleeve with polythene lining is in very good condition, although there is some minor discolouration at the opening. The gatefold cover is in very good condition with no creases...however there is that biro price just under the red capacitor on the manikin head.
My rating for this album is: Very Good to Excellent

The album will be sent in standard record mailers complete with two cardboard stiffeners. Disc and cover will be placed in separate polythene sleeves, the disc will be placed outside of the cover to prevent spine damage during transit.

Grading on Record Collector System:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items, ie. 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.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
