PLANETS (The) (45rpm/7") Lines/Further Down. Rialto 6.12594. 1979. (Germany) EX

Description: THE PLANETS picture sleeve 45 rpm with LINES/FURTHER DOWN. (Further Down is an instrumental.) From 1979. German manufacture on this one. Matrix even says this... Manufactured in Germany. Rialto 6.12594. I brought this back with me to Cleveland, OH late 1980 when I came back from a long stay in Germany. Steve Lindsey who produced this also used to be with Deaf School. Steve eventually left and started The Planets. Picture sleeve front looks great. Just minor aging/wear is starting. But the back cover shows ringwear in the form of the circle in the middle, as you can see. The label is in great shape. The vinyl has lots of tiny light surface scratches on both sides, but none feelable. And they don't affect the sound quality. That was pretty clear. No skips or pops. Here is a 49-second audio/video recording of the first side so you can hear the great sound quality. I give the cover picture sleeve a Very Good Plus (VG+). The vinyl 45 in sound quality an EX Excellent, but Very Good Plus (VG+) for looking at it under the bright light because of fine surface scratches._________________________________________________________ (Grading Guidelines are listed further down below.) __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Feel free to email me for more information on an item.

NM: Near Mint - Vinyl, still shiny, as if opened for the first time. No writing or stickers on the vinyl. No obvious scratches. Label: No writing or stickers and no fading of the label. LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or similar defects. NM-: Near Mint Minus (My grading item/description). Similar to NM but will have some very light scratches on the vinyl not affecting the sound quality. No writing or stickers on label and no fading (or ringwear) on cover or label. EX: Excellent - Not quite a Goldmine Standard Listing, but being used by many now. Cover: No ink wear, minor creases to corners, no seam tears. Vinyl can have scratches, but not felt by your fingers. Sound quality must be mint. No more than 15% of the surface should have wear or scuffs on it. To me, EX is like a VG++. VG+: Very Good Plus - Similar to NM- except that on the label, there may be a sticker or writing, but it shows very little wear. There may be only a couple light surface scratches on the grooves, but do not affect the playback with noise or skips. You may only see these scratches if you put them under a bright light and really look for them. The cover might have light creasing or minor seam or corner wear, but still in great condition to show off. VG to VG-: Very Good to Very Good Minus - May not be that shiny anymore and you will see scratches without putting it under a bright light, but they still would not affect the quality of the playback. The sound quality is still pretty good, maybe a little noise, but not enough to detract from the listening experience. The label might have some fading around it, besides having stickers or writing. The cover may have obvious ringwear in the middle or around the perimeter of where the record was, maybe some side seam splits, or little tears at the top or side where the record goes back into. If less defects, then it's a VG. If it has all this just mentioned, then a VG-. G, G+: Good or Good Plus - It doesn't mean the vinyl is trashed. It plays though without skipping, but may have heavy noise or fuzz sound because of age, quality, or worn-down grooves. Heavy writing or stickers on the label, ringwear is very obvious on the cover and cover probably has seam splits. But, amazingly, for the vinyl, if you have special audio LP recording software, you could probably clean up those crackles and fuzzes, if you want to create a CD of it for yourself. P: Poor - This is when the vinyl is warped to the point it warps the playback also. Or it's cracked, but it may or may not still play without a skip. If a picture sleeve is with it, this is torn or marked up bigtime. But someone may want to have it for nostalgia or even attempt to fix it.
