HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE

 

ANOTHER GREAT BATCH OF ORIGINALS.  I’M USING TWO GRADES AGAIN AS MANY HAVE SURFACE MARKS, THIS CAN BE JUST FROM REMOVING A RECORD FROM IT’S SLEEVE OR SOMETHING HEAVIER BUT AT LEAST YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU’RE GETTING.  THE SECOND GRADE IS THE PLAY GRADE, AND I’VE PLAYED EVERY RECORD SO THIS GRADE IS ACCURATE.  A SIDE ONLY IS GRADED.

 

IF ANYONE NEEDS TO ACTUALLY HEAR ANYTHING, LET ME KNOW WHAT AND I WILL RECORD IT FOR YOU

 

BOBBY SPENCER — I WANT TO SATISFY — PEANUT COUNTRY W/DEMO                           VG++/EX                25 SOLD

THE BLOSSOMS — DEEP INTO MY HEART — REPRISE                                                                    EX-/M-                     20 SOLD

CAROL & GERRI — HOW CAN I EVER FIND A WAY / ON YOU HEARTACHES LOOK GOOD — MGM  VG++/VG++ 300

Very rare stock copy.  Both sides have crackle on the intro until the music really comes in then they both play fine with the odd pop.  Won’t see a cheaper one I doubt..
