I almost forgot, I recently acquired a VG- original press of
It plays amazingly well for being so visually nasty, but is indeed in shitty condition.

I gota Barbara Lyn - I'm a good woman 45 on ebay that looked like absolute shit. Like, you would pick it up at a thrift store, take one look at it, and pass on it even for a buck... but it plays really, really well.
I have no idea how this is possible, but I'm not complaining

"Almost" unplayable? How can you play that?almost unplayable, on the bright side the cover is definately EX......
those fanias are fucking rugged...my copy of acid don't look so hot, but plays like a champ.my Trinikas looks like death. Plays a little bit better though.
my 13th floor elevators collection is pretty skate-tastic.
joe bataan fanias =minus
I love the mold on this. It makes this already impossibly raw recording even rawer. I would never want a cleaner copy of this.
Disc is practically mint tho.
(hi everyone.)
I seriously wouldn't let that near my collection because it looks like the mold would just eat through it! Is the red part of the mold too?

Freejazz-hungry mold demon.
I've had about 4 or 5 copies of that record that were VG- or VG (the kind you find unsleeved at the flea market) and all played great. Actually it's not uncommon for marked up 45s to play well. It cuts both ways though, in that clean looking 45s will turn out to be unusuable because someone with a bad needle ruined them.
Look out for that red mold. That's about as bad as black mold and is probably toxic. No lie.

Yeah its all mold. I love that this record is literally alive.
(Acutally its all dried and I keep it in a seperate LP case to avoid the above.)
I have an O.V. Wright "Nucleus of Soul" 1st press on Backbeat
that is roached, guy gave it to me for a buck "for the cover"
but you know I played that shit when I got home - played ok,
crazy noise but no skips.
Also have a Jamaican OG Jackie Mittoo "Now" on Studio One,
not scratched but so fully worn that the hiss outplays the
music ... still, it looks nice in my collection.
Some others ... um, a warped Donald Austin "Crazy Legs" LP
on Eastbound, etc, etc

everyone who buys records and likes to collect them wants to upgrade...
im still surprised theres no "little dude alert" graemlin. i guess it would hurt the feelings of most of the board members.
listen you you clowns, i've been tracking down shit with my own two feet and hands for ten years. I dont sit behind a computer and snipe for NM or better. If you think I couldnt get a better copy of anything I own n the real world or virtual. I happen to take pride in imperfection, and appreciatte the moments where real life intervenes and is not sealed in cellophane.
