Barry Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Never seen this before...this is That's All A Part Of Loving Him by Tommie Young that I received from the US today...as you can see the arrow has been scratched into the vinyl to point out the break...which you can see by how much shinier that section is....I have had records with silver/gold pen on but never a scratched arrow...Breaks Vandal in da House!!!;)
Swifty Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 T'was good of them to point it out on the record though Barry ?! 2
Northern Soul Uk Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 A method used regularly by scratchers, I wonder??
Geeselad Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) A method used regularly by scratchers, I wonder?? electrical tape is the norm, you can cue the break that way, oh and you can remove it, doh! Edited February 4, 2014 by geeselad
Benji Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Was told about some scratching in where the break is, but had put that down as urban myths. I stand corrected. D*ckheads.
Steve G Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Fookin vandalism of a perfectly good record.......
Kjw Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I can think of a few records where the arrow should go all the way to the run out 2
Marktsoulman Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 What an idiot! Great record Barry, I just picked one up and think this has got legs for the crossover side.....Let's hope so! 1
Spacehopper Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 unbelievable!..can normally see where breaks are because the groove tends to be different widths anyway?..can understand the tape to find the break quick but scratching?
Barry Posted February 5, 2014 Author Posted February 5, 2014 They didn't do too much damage as it plays through it fine - I quite like that little bit of etched history as it happens - I've never had a record with a tattoo before 1
Ernie Andrews Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 It was done for the Visually impaired DJ - Disability does not mean Inability to fook up a record!

D*ckheads. the mentality of hip hop diggers is so different, for them its all about the groove, collectability often doesn't figure. 1

Whatever floats yer boat I suppose G...would you give a fuck about scratching an arrow into a Hip Hop track if it pointed out a soul gem hidden within its midriff haha 1

Could just be a random scratch on the record . . . that just happens to look a bit like an arrow . . . and just happens to meet up with the break. Food for thought anyway . . . . . . . . . . . .
