Description

Merlin- What a Funny Way To Fall In Love/Rock and Roll Express -CBS (1975 UK)

Condition: EX

Merlin were a bit of a Schizoid act, their album is an over-produced and patchy affair alternating between Hard Rock, Glam and overtly commercial Pop with a little Prog thrown in…The A side in fact appears under the title Look At Me on the album, but the B side is exclusive to this release. Rock And Roll Express is probably their best performance and it’s a suitably meaty and crunching number with some neat power chords, handclaps and snotty vocals. As a song, it doesn’t really go anywhere, but it hurtles down the track quite nicely.

Grading. I don’t use the term Mint. I don’t believe that records manufactured over 30 years ago, even if unplayed, can be called mint.

Grading: Record/cover

EX: Means either “near mint” to some light marks with hardly any noticeable noise. Sleeve has no or only minor wear.

VG: Means slight background noise and more pronounced marks which do not affect the listening experience in a major way. Sleeve may be creased, some discolouring, the odd fraying, some ringwear, seam split and perhaps some writing.

G: Means noticeable clicks or pop, may have scratches, but doesn’t skip or jump. Sleeve may be ripped, tape repair, large writing, sticker removal damage etc...

Fair: Not a pleasant listening experience, the disc is damaged, just a stop gap before upgrading. Sleeve is badly damaged, not one to frame on the wall...

Poor: I don’t sell records in poor condition

Postage: Royal Mail have increased their costs again, however the postage costs for 2 singles is the same as for 1. I offer reduced postage if more than 1 record is purchased:

After that: UK = 50p for each extra single, Europe =75p and USA/Asia = £1 extra. If ordering more than 1 single, please await my invoice

All records sent out in professional mailers with 2 stiffeners. Records removed from sleeve if housed in picture sleeve. Postage costs include packaging.

Insurance strongly recommended for high priced items and compulsory for packages of a value of over £80. Insurance added at cost. I retain proof of postage for all items.
