Shamblejam, the only Parchment lp to be co-released in the States, is a decidedly more electric album that contains some of the group’s best material. Opens with a roguish version of ‘Denomination Blues’ that’s heavey on the mandolin and percussion. ‘Green Psalm’ is a first-rate acid folkrock cut with fuzz guitar, while the psych-edged ‘Light Of The World’ words in choice electric guitar leads alongside trippy reverse editing effects. Moods vary from the lazy staggering brassy blues of ‘Speaker’s Corner’ to the frisky upbeat mandolin groove of ‘Morning Sky’. ‘Shine On Me’, ‘Don’t Let The Morning Come’, ‘Corners Of My Life’, a cover of Judy Sill’s ‘My Man On Love’ – there really ain’t a bad cut on here. Mellow subdued brass on a couple of the ballads. New member Brian Smith (replacing Keith Rycroft) provides bass, acoustic guitar, electric guitar and backing vocals. Produced by John Pantry. Released in the US on Myrrh (MSA 6551).
CONDITION Descriptions:
I base the condition of each of my Records off of Ebay's Grading System.
• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all.
• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.
• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.
• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing.
• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along.
• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.
