Comments:

Ok, here is a very rare Bob Dylan record. Obviously some sort of bootleg or private recording. We were told by the previous owner that it was recorded in an apartment - true, not true? - nonetheless it is certainly not a standard release by any means. There is singing and there is talking, between Dylan and other unidentified people. At times it seems that they are playing the songs as if to decide if they like them for future use. It is a very "personal" sounding album. The surfaces have wear, and the sound it what you would expect from this type of recording/pressing - not great, but listenable, varying from track to track.

The jacket is a gatefold but there is only one record in it. The songs listed on the cover are: Candy Man, Ramblin Round, Ballad of Hezekiah, 103, Stay All Night, Only A Hobo, Mighty Quinn, Wheels On Fire. There are numbers next to the songs, and number four on side 1 and numbers 4 and 5 on side two have no titles.

There is wear and separation and what looks like it might be a cigarette burn on the back.

Sold as is with no returns because we don't want to get something back that is not what we shipped.

International Buyers:

Do not ask us to change customs forms, we will not, period.

Also, international postage is what the postage is, we do not negotiate international postage. If it is priority mail, then it is priority mail and the buyer is responsible for all customs duties.

All international orders of $25 or more will be shipped priority mail, regardless of weight, no exceptions!

Our condition ratings are done visually, thus if there is something we missed visually, or if there is something a visual inspection could not have foreseen, let us know and we will make it right.

There are times when we test play a record, if we do so we will note the results in the comments section. We also use the comment section when we feel there is need to call items to your attention. Please read all comments before bidding so you will have a full understanding of the condition of the record and any other information that we feel is important enough to put in writing.

Sealed:  Nothing to say, it is as it came from the manufacturer and we can make no comment since it has never been opened

Mint:  As perfect as you can get after it has been opened, but not absolutely perfect because the second you open a record it is no longer perfect.  Most mint records have been played sparingly, or played with great care on sophisticated systems and show no obvious signs of use, some appear never to have been played, but might nonetheless have a hint of surface noise hidden among the quieter passages

Near Mint:  No distracting flaws on the jacket, no scratches, nicks on the record surface. There can be some light scuffing from the sleeve but it will have no effect on the playing or the sound quality. There might be an occasional piece of background noise, but not consistent or frequent

Excellent:  Clean jacket with some wear, clean bright record surface with some light scratches or sleeve scuffs  that do not make their presence known during playing, some light surface noise.

Very Good:  A frequently played record. Surface will show signs of use that are much more obvious and in greater number than an excellent grade, such as very light scratches /hairlines and sleeve scuffing. The jacket will be fairly clean but will show signs of having been handled, though not roughly. There is more surface noise than on those graded excellent.

Good:  We limit the listing of records in this condition to only those that are rare enough to be desirable even if slightly abused. This is the same thing that happens in the world of stamps. Something rare may often not be available in the better grades, or might be priced to high for inclusion in a collection that has financial boundaries. Records in this condition will be listenable but will have enough surface wear to have that wear make inroads into the overall sound of the record. When a record is graded as good we do not accept returns.
