The Cuff Links - Tracy LP 1969 Decca – Ron Dante, Rupert Holmes w/ Shrink EX/EX

Description: Artist & Title: The Cuff Links - TracyLabel & Cat #: 1969 Decca – DL 75160 StereoVinyl Grade: Excellent (EX) play graded *record plays Near Mint except for a single random tick on "Put A Little Love In your Heart." Vinyl itself is glossy with a few superficial marks, but this was the only noise disturbance. Cover Grade: Excellent (EX) *jacket still in shrink wrap (partial tears) with slight wear at bottom corners Notes: The Cuff Links' scored a major hit single in the summer of 1969 with "Tracy," an upbeat bit of neo-bubblegum pop buoyed by the vocals of Ron Dante, who at the time was also the voice of the Archies on such hits as "Sugar Sugar" and "Jingle Jangle." Their versions of "Sweet Caroline" and "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" manage to reveal some personality of their own, and the album's production (including string arrangements by Rupert Holmes) is clean, clever, and well-executed throughout. Tracy is a few notches down from a lost masterpiece of sunshine pop, but it's a better and more imaginative album than the hit single (or the "One Hit Wonder" status of the Cuff Links) would lead you to expect.

GRADING STANDARDS:(M) Mint: Record and cover appear absolutely perfect in every way. Grade is seldom used, even with sealed albums where the record itself can only be assumed to be mint. (NM) Near Mint: Vinyl is shiny with no obvious signs of wear and plays perfectly with no audible imperfections. Cover is close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. (EX or VG++) Excellent /Very Good ++: Record or jacket has a minimum of audible or visual imperfections. Vinyl has been handled and played very carefully. Light paper scuffs and/or spindle marks may be visible with no appreciable lessening in sound quality. Covers show very minor signs of handling and wear. (VG+) Very Good Plus: Record displays light scuffs, spindle marks or very light scratches that may create some noise disturbances, but don't affect one's overall listening experience. Jacket begins to show more prominent signs of storage wear and aging. (VG) Very Good: Defects are more pronounced with visible signs of handling and playing. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially during soft passages and a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, although none of the flaws should be overwhelming. (G) Good / (G+)Good Plus: Vinyl will have scratches and visible groove wear. Record plays without skipping, although noticeable surface noise or ticks will be heard. Jackets have even more pronounced defects such as seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear, water damage or other defects.
