DONOVAN
CATCH THE WIND
HICKORY Records LPS-123 (1965) STEREO
The vinyl here on 'CATCH THE WIND' is simply beautiful. Visually clean & shiny with few vinyl imperfections. Quality tested, great music! GOLDMINE standards at NM-. THIS is a classic DONOVAN!
This pre-owned LP comes in a cardboard sleeve which is just about as nice as the vinyl. It shows light signs of age related wear (edge & handling) but on this one, minimal!
This entire package looks awesome, fully intact mostly clean with great color & clarity & condition. The record comes with a plain white inner sleeve.
GOLDMINE at EX
Will be packaged with a clear outer sleeve for further protection

GOLDMINE is a grading system, wonderful for vinyl. I refer to it, but use my eyes, ears & experience as an additional tool. I grade as if I'm buying for myself! It does not refer to a HAZE, but I see it on some older records. typically does not affect playback.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grading these 'pre-owned' records is based on various grading standards, to include my 60 year romance with buying & caring for records. Do not expect NEW, expect quality. I listen to many but others I use my eyes & common sense to determine its quality. "A New record could skip yet a scuff record could play through".
I will not offer any vinyl that pops or skips unless it is mentioned in the listing.
