cannonball-addict Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 where is the website that shows how to tell if an album is an original pressing or a later reissue/or what era its from? I googled creatively for the last half-hour and am at my wits end!!!! cannonball-addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannonball-addict Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 That means today I bought an original pressing in VG (very good) condition of this Stanley Turrentine's Joyride for $5. Did I get a deal or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJ Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Honestly if it's truly only VG condition in terms of how it plays, not really a great deal IMHO. Not a bad price either, but a true VG (per Goldmine rating) is kinda trashed audio wise. However, if it LOOKS VG but plays VG+ or NM on the other hand then you got yourself quite a deal! Do let us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Mono originals of this one in reasonable condition sound pretty damn nice ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannonball-addict Posted July 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 It is mono. And it sounds great despite clearly having some scuffs and minor scratches. Where can I take it to get it appraised? Should my local vinyl emporium be able to grade it? And by the way, this place is holding an auction until August 3: http://www.jerrysrecords.com/auction.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should my local vinyl emporium be able to grade it? Most Stanley Turrentine albums were among BN bestsellers. They were pretty widely distributed. Nothing really rare about this one, even in mono. Forget about investments. Just be glad you got the vinyl at that price and ENJOY IT! It's a good one! That's my 2 cents! OK, make it 3 cents!
