I wanna know if you got grails that are in shitty condition. Time to rep your mold covered Stark Reality.
 
My Del Jones is in terrible shape with pops, clicks, numerous skips, writing on the cover, all of that mess.

I could use a Four Mints upgrade, although it's nowhere near as bad as the Jones.
 
My "Funky Streaker" 45 by Backlash is unplayable.

my test of the Rhythm Machine is in VG condition. three or four skips and an edge warp. okay maybe VG- but it still plays great.
 
I have a Billy Wooten that is simply awful.

In the rain/we've only just begun sound fine, but everything else has at least one skip or extended rotational clicks (like for 30 seconds of spin: click..... click..... click...., etc.)

Thank god this was recorded live, as the background probably obscures a whole lot of shit you would hear otherwise.

My copy of Haze 2nd Lp (B&W Cover) is listenable, but looks like utter shit, even after a thorough cleaning.
 
My Cavaliers Unlimited (thanks Laserwolf!) plays ok but looks like it's been stepped on a few times over.
 
i have this in VG-

and this ($2)


just got this with no cover and lots of light scratches, but it was a buck and it plays through fine

thing is, with all of these, they actually play through no problem, sound pretty decent, and the fact that they have some wear makes me feel more comfortable about cramming them into my crate for gigs- except the mulatu.
 
I used to have a totally rinked S.O.U.L. - what is it, but gave the cover (which had busted seams but otherwise okay) to a strutter who had a decent copy of the record sans cover.

I wish thrift stores like that were around me now. That day I found a load of latin & funk, including an eddie curtis LP that I hadn't heard of before or since.
 
as i've mentioned, i've got the og deep groove new jazz eric dolphy at the 5 spot vol. 1 but it sounds like bacon.

my Trinikas looks like death. Plays a little bit better though.

my 13th floor elevators collection is pretty skate-tastic.

i've got a copy of this but the cover is pretty warped, got it on cd if you want a clean copy to listen to, i've also got a lewis connection with no cover and a skip in the best song, and a st paul dreamcycle rhythm and blues soul band 45 that starts out with a high pitched noise
