LENNY MCDANIEL & THE NEW ERA

I KEEP TELLING MYSELF / SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING

SEVEN B 7016

Okay, because of so many upcoming record shows I am not going to list many today but they are all rarities and in great playing condition. Please see the video. This is the exact record you are bidding on. This rare soul 45 comes right out of New Orleans and is a floor filler. The Record is in solid VG++ to Excellent condition and plays strong. The label has three small tears (see pic) on the 'Something' side. The A-side label has "Bush" neatly written on it. The labels are both still legible with great color. This is a rare one. There has not been one on in over a year and a half. Don't sleep on this one!

Being quite particular about condition myself, I try to describe spot on, the condition of the sleeve and record. Every flaw will be pictured and mentioned. Please remember that most times we are dealing in Lps and 45s that are a good 30 + years old. I am a firm believer that you can find fault with just about any record. Very few make that Near Mint standard that gets thrown around so often. I package like no one on eBay. I use more materials and am aware how important it is to ship records outside of covers and with proper outer sleeves for protection. This costs money. In no way do I make money on the shipping. I use brand new outer sleeves, backer boards for 45s & picture sleeves, mailers, filler pads, used outer sleeves to protect corners and if its a really big record I will upgrade to a double box type situation with packing peanuts. Please keep all this in mind when filling out feedback. I like happy customers because they are repeat customers. It's just good business. Thank You!

GRADING SYSTEM

Mint = Only reserved for Sealed records or store stock new 45s. 10/10 Top Copies (I never use this grade) 

Near Mint =  The record may have been played once or twice on good equipment. Near Mint vinyl should sound and look New when properly cleaned. A Near Mint cover should be one that either looks new or still has the shrink wrap on it. Near Mint is usually reserved for record collectors that don't mind spending premium in order to get the best quality copy of a recording. 9 out of 10

Excellent = 8 out of 10 A record should have maybe one or two blemishes such as fingernail or scuff on the surface that does not affect play. A cover / picture sleeve may have the lightest of storage wear but it should not be overwhelming. Defects should not be seen unless really examining with a microscope. It should be veiwed as Near Mint to most collectors, but for the super picky collector such as myself that check them with a 100 watt light bulb before it ever gets played, it is veiwed as an 8 out of 10.

Very Good ++ = 7 Out of 10. A VG++ record may have a few blemishes on each side and will still play with High Fidelity. Corner Dings, General Shelf Wear, Light Ring wear on Covers. No background noise should be present.

Very Good + = (VG+) My VG+ does not mean trash. It's a legit grade is used for records that have been enjoyed responsibly. It may have scratches (should not be feelable with finger) that shouldn't affect play or some sleeve scuffs from being pulled and played. These are what I call topical or fingernail scratches. They do not go into the grooves where your stylus reads. A VG+ record should still sound great. There may be background noise but never overwhelming (when properly cleaned). Pops and Skips from deep scratches are unacceptable. These are for collectors who love to play their records! Yes, Please! 6 out of 10

Very Good =  (VG)  My VG records do not equal "hammered". They are play tested and have some background noise present, usually only audible during silent passages or between tracks. A vg record has been played numerous times. In most cases such as party records the records were stacked on top of each other instead of being returned to the inner sleeve. May have a pop or two but will not skip. Sometimes records will look great and play with background noise. The one album that comes to mind is The Stones - Sticky Fingers. I've had (visually) NM copies that played horrible and VG copies that played superb. 45s are a different story. These will usually play well even though there are numerous scratches. Don't be afraid of surface scratches, your stylus takes a worse beating every time it crosses those matrix numbers we love to obsess over, in the trail off. 5 out of 10 

Return Policy:

It is impossible for me to play every record I own. That is why I have the "No Questions Asked" Return Policy. If you don't agree with my grading upon playing the record, simply return the same record for a full refund. I will refund and resell any record that you feel I've missed the mark on. There is no need to leave a negative. All this does is upset both parties. I may have something you want later on down the road. I have been on here since '98 and never found a situation that couldn't be resolved through polite email. As with all business transactions we must adhere to the rules.

INSURANCE

  *** Do Not Open the record mailer if it appears to be damaged. It is up to you to recover your money from the Post Office. If the Mailer has been opened they will suspect foul play. I have had very good luck shipping with USPS, but accidents do happen and you need to know how to be covered.***
