Description

Great and rare blues 45 by John Lee Hooker on Detroit’s FORTUNE label # 853 : Cry Baby b/w Love You Baby. This 45 came out right around 1960. Labels are pretty clean with only a very small amount of wear. Record play grades VG. Please click on the link to hear an unaltered sound clip of the actual record being offered here. Please see my other auctions.

Grading Scale:

NM = A near perfect record in every way. Record shows no obvious signs of wear.

VG++ = Somewhere between VG+ and Near Mint.

VG+ = Record has been played, but previous owner took good care of it. Record will have light scuffs or light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. VERY little to no background/surface noise will be heard while the record is playing.

VG = Light to moderate Background/surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's fade and intro. This background noise will not overpower the music otherwise, however. Groove wear and light scratches (deep enough to affect sound) will be noticeable. Still a nice record.

VG- = Somewhere between VG and G+.

G/G+ = Significant surface noise upon playing. Scratches and visible groove wear will be evident. Record will play through without skipping or sticking however.

Fair/Poor = I do not ever sell records at this grade, but they would be cracked, severly warped, with skips or sticks, or have obvious signs of HEAVY play. Basically it will serve better as a coaster than a record.


I grade strictly by Goldmine's standards. Please ask questions before you bid. I accept Pay Pal , M. O. or check. Checks may take 10 days to clear.
