Hello Funk / Boogie / Soul / Disco / Electro lover,
I am offering part of my private record collection collected during the last 25 years. Mainly funk, disco, soul, boogie & electro from the period 1975-1987, with some pop and rare house records as well.
In my offering you will find a lot of rare and extremely hard to find lp's and especially 12-inches and a lot of promo copies in M- record condition.
Why am I offering them? Well, a lot are doubles, my personal taste has changed a bit, some are bought in a larger parcel etc.
What makes my listing special is that ALL records have been cleaned professionally to make them free of dust, grease and especially static electricity, probably the most important cause of surface noise, crackles and pops.
Furthermore, ALL records are graded not only based on visibility. In all cases, the A-side has been played completely to check them for any faults, such as an unacceptable amount of surface noise or too many crackles and pops.
To be recognized as a quality seller, I do not offer record quality less than VG+, with the exception of a handful records in VG record quality that are too rare not to offer.
All records are original releases, again with the exception of a handful records. If a reissue is offered, it is noted explicitely in the description block.
While browsing my listings, please select the 'INFO' button to the right side of each song for an extensive description on every item I offer.
For 12-inches, this includes essential information regarding the # of tracks, category, playtime, mixes, (important) remixers, release year, release number, record label, sleeve status (picture, factory or plain), condition and producers. For albums, this includes the # of tracks, category, release year, release number, record label, condition, producers and especially the explicit mentioning of all tracks that make the album special, based on popularity and my personal opinion.
Every item is also described in terms of superb, very good etc. This is my personal opinion of course, but if you are a funk, boogie, soul, disco & electro lover as well, and you can find yourself in my general taste, it can be helpful in discovering 'new' or unknown items with a high probability of satisfying you as well.
Writings on cover and label are also explicitely mentioned in the description block, this to describe as completely as possible what you may expect to receive.
