REMARKS: 

Ray Davies, the leader and primary songwriter for the Kinks, was around this time banned from America and therefore lucrative touring, drinking more heavily than Art Tatum and the Pogues put together, and shaking off a nervous breakdown. He would say of this era later, much later that he went away, slept, and came back with a fully-formed moustache. His band's Face to Face--initiating, for only a couple of thousand Americans at the time, a string of uninterrupted Kinks masterpieces unrivalled in Western Music for duration, consistency, and wit--did not spring up, however, from nowhere; the year's earlier album, Kinks Kontroversy, broke partly with their earlier music's garage punkiness, slightly lame blues samplings (picture Ray Davies in Bretonia, Mississippi, seeking open-tuning technique), and muted drumming. Kontroversy nearly smacks your face at every groove, shaking its fey rhythms mockingly, triumphantly. Ray's indispensable brother Dave on guitar, John Dalton on bass, and Mick Avory on drums heralded a changing of the music guard. And with no one able to block the entrances, youthful lunatics were now in charge.

WE USE THE FOLLOWING SCALE FOR OUR STRICT, PLAYED (SOME TRACKS) AND/OR VISUAL GRADING OF VINYL:

Sealed : Jacket is sealed shut in shrink wrap, disc is sold ungraded or "as is". If you wish I can carefully open the film and send the vinyl separate of the cover?BUT ADVISE!

M- : A record in this condition appears absolutely unplayed and will bear no marks, sleeve scuffs, or scratches. We seldom use this grade.

VG++ (Excellent) : A record in this condition may have one or two visible imperfections, but these will be of a purely cosmetic nature (i.e. sleeve scuffs or other superficial marks) and will not affect play, of course, no skips, no significant noise or clicks. A VG++ record will have no scratches.

VG+ : A record in this condition will have a few visible imperfections. These may include sleeve scuffs, superficial marks, and very light scratches if any. The presence of a single light scratch is enough for us to grade an otherwise markless record VG+; a VG+ record will have no more than a few such scuffs or scratches.

VG : A record in this condition will show the kinds of imperfections found on VG+ records but in slightly greater numbers. There may be a number of light scratches and other marks, but a VG record will not bear any scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. TO BE SOLD AS IS!

VG- : A record in this condition will have a number of visible imperfections; the presence of a considerable number of light scratches will force us to give a record this grade, as will the presence of even one scratch deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. TO BE SOLD AS IS!

G : A record in this condition will have pervasive imperfections of varying degrees including both light scratches and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. TO BE SOLD AS IS!
