Description: ITEM DESCRIPTION: This is a vintage original pressing 45 rpm extended play record with the original cover MGM 1399 by Joni James from 1956 in VERY GOOD (VG) CONDITION.

The cover is in NEAR PERFECT (M-) CONDITION with NO seam splits, tears or wear. There is NO surface wear, edge wear or corner wear. The cover is crisp, flat and shiny.

Powered by eCommercePlayer.comPowered by eCommercePlayer.comPowered by eCommercePlayer.comPowered by eCommercePlayer.com I add new records, and/or re-list unsold records with reduced prices, just about every day. Song samples were recorded directly from the actual record described above. These samples are provided to give an idea of the songs and hopefully give an indication of the quality and condition of the record. Every effort was made to capture the sound faithfully, including any imperfections, without any filtering, equalization, or other enhancement. GRADING: All records are from my personal collection, duplicates from my trader box, or recent acquisitions, and are original pressings unless noted. Records have been carefully cleaned and label stickers removed when safe and possible to do so. Records will come with a medium weight golden Kraft paper sleeve. These are superior to plain paper sleeves. After 30 plus years of collecting and selling records and music related items, most agree that I am a strict grader. Records are both play graded and visually graded. I only deal in collectible quality items. I don't bother with records with cracks, chips, skips, warps, or major wear. The grading system described below I think is the one everyone is familiar with. M or M- means PERFECT or NEAR PERFECT. Looks and plays like new, or perhaps just a hint of use or handling. No imperfections and no surface noise. If it looks like is was used or there is some background noise, it is not mint. VG+ means EXCELLENT. Played, stored, and handled carefully. Sound quality is easily good enough to record. Negligible background noise. Recorded music and vocals are crisp and clear with no distortion. Only a few small surface scuffs, and maybe a couple of very light, small, surface, hairline scratches, neither of which cause any noise. Vinyl is shiny, almost like new. VG means VERY GOOD. Barely noticeable, uniform background noise, that is well below the level of the music and certainly not distracting. Music is still clear with very little distortion, if any. A few noticeable surface scuffs and scratches that may contribute just slightly to noise. Possibly a few isolated light clicks or pops. May still be recordable, but some light, non-distracting background noise could be detected on the recording. A majority of shine still left on the vinyl. G = GOOD. GOOD does NOT mean bad. Still a worthy addition to a collection. Noticeable background noise that may not be uniform and is approaching the level of the music. Music clarity may be fading and some distortion may becoming obvious. Several obvious scuffs and scratches, some of which may contribute to noise, such as clicks or pops. Vinyl has lost some of its sheen. P or F = POOR or FAIR. Looks bad and probably plays badly. No skips, but certainly noisy. Many obvious scuffs and scratches that contribute to noise and are probably distracting. Vinyl has lost most or all of its sheen. I will generally only list rarer items in this condition. Any other defects, such as label tears, stickers, tape, wear, etc. will be noted individually and hopefully will be obvious in the photo.
