Description
Morrissey's follow up to Viva Hate wasn't quite everyone's cup of tea, but it still had his telltale wry wit and was underappreciated by a music press always praising up the next big thing and ignoring or degenerating established acts.
The record is in Excellent condition though there are some surface scratches*. Also, on King Leer there is a scuff which is just about audible for a few bars - it is very low in volume but you can just make it out. The sound quality of the record still sounded in fine fettle to me.
I'm selling my record collection because I've found that I don't listen to them anymore. That, and I've been told to "declutter" starting with things I don't use :)
I have some solid record mailers and packaging to get this to you in the best possible condition.
Record Grading
*NB: I have tried to listen to all my records before selling them but time is not allowing me to do so. As a result I have been listening to the start and end of songs, the gaps between records, and then investigating any scuffs or scratches that I've seen to make sure this hasn't effected the records sound. As a result things may slip through, if I have made a mistake in the grading as a result of missing something then please let me know as I want these records to be loved as much as I loved them.
As a new seller I've looked a all the grading systems (and been baffled beyond belief) but have decided to adhere to this one as it seems relatively simple and makes some sense to me and it's one that mentions the playing experience (why do some systems fail to mention hardly anything about the sound!!!)
Near Mint (NM) A nearly perfect record. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. The record should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear, other signs of slight handling, no more that a couple of wispy hairline marks and a couple of spindle trails. The cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same will be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap.
Excellent (EX) An excellent record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discolouration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.
Very Good (VG) Many of the defects found in a EX record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them
