YOU ARE BIDDING FOR A VERY RARE AND HARD TO FIND, ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING OF HAVE YOU HEARD BY THE DUPREES AND RECORDED IN 1963 ON THE COED LABEL LPC-906 IN HIGH FIDELITY. GOLDMINE LISTS THIS FOR $200.00+ NM. THE TRAILOFF NUMBERS IN THE DEADWAX AREA, ARE P5RM 3418 ON SIDE 1 AND P5RM 3419 ON SIDE 2. THE THICK ALBUM COVER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS A 2" SEAM REPAIR IN THE LOWER RIGHT CORNER. NO  WRITING, RINGWEAR, OR DISCOLORATION, FRONT OR BACK AND THE LINER NOTES ARE NICE. THE PHOTO ON THE FRONT IS VERY NICE AND WILL DISPLAY WELL IN ANYONE'S COLLECTIBLE MUSIC ROOM. THE RECORD HAS MAINTAINED IT'S SHINY, GLOSSY LOOK AND THE LABELS ARE CLEAN, WITH FEW NEEDLE MARKS EVIDENT. THE RECORD WAS INSPECTED UNDER THE LIGHT AND THERE WERE NO HEAVY SCRATCHES OR SCUFF MARKS, JUST SURFACE OR LINE MARKS DUE TO NORMAL USE. I PLAYED THE RECORD JUST PRIOR TO LISTING AND THERE WERE NO STICKS, LOUD POPS OR NOISY HISSES. I FOUND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE EXCELLENT AND I KNOW YOU WILL TOO. A QUALITY INVESTMENT ALBUM AND BASED ON GOLDMINE'S GRADING GUIDELINES, THE ALBUM IS GRADED A STRONG VG+ AND THE RECORD VG+. THERE IS NO RESERVE.  

SIDE 1; SINCE I MET YOU BABY, I NEED YOU BY MY SIDE, I WANT SOMEBODY, I GOT TO LEARN TO DO THE MAMBO, I'LL NEVER LEAVE YOU BABY, THAT'S WHY I DREAM, A TEAR FELL. SIDE 2;  HEAVEN CAME DOWN TO EARTH, I NEED YOU, THAT'S WHY, YOU MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME, YOU CAN'T STOP THIS ROCKING AND ROLLING,  IT'S A DOGGONE CRYING SHAME, IT MAY SOUND SILLY.    

I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL,  CASHIER'S CHECK, MONEY ORDER OR PERSONAL CHECK AND WILL SHIP ON DAY OF SETTLEMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME. PLEASE VIEW MY FEEDBACK, GOOD LUCK AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

GRADING!

GRADING IS BASED ON GOLDMINE'S GRADING SYSTEM. I AM CONSERVATIVE WHEN GRADING MY ALBUMS AND I TRY TO BE OBJECTIVE IN DOING SO. MOST OF THE ALBUMS OFFERED FOR BID COME FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION WHILE OTHERS COME FROM OTHER COLLECTIONS AND ESTATES. NONE COME FROM GARAGE SALES OR SWAP MEETS.

MINT: (M);  ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. CERTAINLY NEVER PLAYED AND PERHAPS STILL IN THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

NEAR MINT: (NM);  A NEARLY PERFECT RECORD AND ALBUM COVER. THE RECORD SHOULD SHOW NO OBVIOUS SIGNS OF WEAR. THE ALBUM COVER SHOULD HAVE NO CREASES, FOLDS, SEAM SPLITS, WRITING, TAPE OR OTHER NOTICEABLE DEFECTS, INCLUDING CUT-OUT HOLES. BASICALLY, AN ALBUM IN NEAR MINT CONDITION SHOULD LOOK AS IF IT WAS JUST PURCHASED FROM A RECORD STORE AND REMOVED FROM THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

VERY GOOD+: (VG+);  A VERY GOOD PLUS WILL SHOW SOME SIGNS OF USE AND THAT IT WAS PLAYED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO TOOK CARE OF IT. RECORD SURFACES MAY SHOW SOME SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY HAVE SOME SLIGHT SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES THAT DO NOT AFFECT ONE'S LISTENING EXPERIENCE. SLIGHT WARPS THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE SOUND IS OK. THE LABELS MAY HAVE SOME RINGWEAR OR DISCOLORATION, BUT THEY SHOULD BARELY BE NOTICEABLE. THE CENTER HOLE WILL NOT BE MISSHAPEN BY REPEATED PLAY. THE ALBUM COVER MAY HAVE SLIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY BE MARRED BY A CUT-OUT HOLE, INDENTATION OR CORNER INDICATING IT WAS TAKEN OUT OF PRINT. A VERY GOOD PLUS RECORD IS HIGHLY ACCEPTABLE AND DESIRABLE.

VERY GOOD (VG):  SURFACE NOISE WILL BE EVIDENT UPON PLAYING, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES AND DURING A SONGS INTRO AND FADE. LABELS MAY BE MARRED BY WRITING OR HAVE TAPE OR STICKERS ATTACHED. THE SAME WILL BE TRUE WITH ALBUM COVERS. TAPED SEAMS MAY BE COMMON.

GOOD PLUS: (G+) OR GOOD: (G). I RARELY DEAL WITH THIS CATEGORY. THESE RECORDS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FILLERS.

LISTINGS AND DESCRIPTIONS, PLEASE READ!

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THE ALBUMS DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. I HAVE HAD A FEW PERSONS WHO DID NOT TAKE TIME TO READ THE DESCRIPTIONS, WIN THE AUCTION AND THEN ASK FOR A REFUND DUE TO THEIR NOT READING THE INFORMATION, OR BEING HASTY IN DOING SO. DESCRIPTIONS WILL INCLUDE THE ARTIST (S), LABEL, DATE OF RECORDING IF KNOWN, CONDITION OF ALBUM AND RECORD, INCLUDING LABELS AND OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION THAT WILL BE HELPFUL IN MAKING A WINNING BID. WHEN AN ALBUM IS LISTED AND IT IS KNOWN TO BE AN ORIGINAL OR FIRST PRESSING, IT WILL BE SO STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION, INCLUDING THE TRAILOFF NUMBERS IN THE DEADWAX AREA IF POSSIBLE. USING GOLDMINE'S ABBREVIATION SYSTEM, A REISSUE WILL HAVE AN (ri) IN THE DESCRIPTION.

PERSONAL ASSURANCE!

DAMAGED RETURNS WILL ALSO VOID THE ASSURANCE. DUE TO DIFFERENT TIME ZONES, I DO NOT ACCEPT TELEPHONE CALLS.
