Children: Rebirth

Rare US psychedelia on Cinema

Wow… very rare first press gatefold version of this great US male/female psych band. A classic piece. This beautiful cover is meant to be seen in its full fold out version far superior to the later Atco pressing. Cover has no ringwear but a slight rubbing which is mostly visible on the back and a little wear on the top and the base of the spine – otherwise very nice copy, has the golden ”stereo” sticker on the front. The inside of the gatefold has some brownish spots around the bottom (se scan), making it more VG++ or so. The overall grading of the cover is EX- grade. Vinyl looks nice and clean with a few hairlines but the pressing is not the best. This is i diffent mix than the Atco.

Please see my other auctions for more original folk/psych/garage/beat/prog albums from all over the world...

Condition (cover/vinyl): VG++,EX

Label and year of release: Cinema (gatefold cover) US 1968

GRADING:

There is nothing more irritating than buying an LP which is overgraded (about half of the LPs I have bought via Ebay has been overgraded.) so I try to grade as accurate as possible both visual and (mostly) audible and describe any flaws on the record. I grade under a 100W light bulb or sunlight. For playgrading I use my Gyro Deck turntable fitted with a Benz Micro MC pick up. If there is any dissatisfaction with any LP there is off course a moneyback warranty.

M-: Perfect copy, the copy that looks like it was bought yesterday and only have been played a few times.

EX: This has been played but still a very satisfying copy that would please most collectors. No scratches or coverwear, LP plays without any problem, as good as perfect in fact many dealers M- is what I would call EX

VG++: This copy has been played and cover has some wear but still a very good copy that should satisfy most people except the MINT puritans

VG+: This is a played copy, plays with some clicks and background noise. But still the music should be the central part. Cover has ring wear but still not a torn cover or anything.

VG: This is a more used copy with some scratches and clicks, no stops or skips though, cover has heavy wear.
