I have two top-shelf 45s:
Rogues (Peyton) It's The Same All Over The World '66 you all know this and "Oh No". condition - has a small number sticker on the "Same All Over Side", not placed over any graphics / text etc. Label is very clean. no wear on either side. Bright vibrant mellow golden yellow print.
Wax - except for one tiny scuff, it would be a solid M- on both sides. I'd give it a VG++ just for that. Sound - Both songs were recorded on a reel to reel with just one mic hanging from the ceiling, so it is a lo-fi recording. any slight tape hiss comes thru in the pressing, it isn't from the mastering or pressing. There is a bit of crackle on the "Oh No Side because the vocals were over-modulated when they sang those bits in the song. nothing distracting.
I have not had a copy this clean in 20 years. Seven unplayed copies purchased directly from the only band-member who kept the 45s went out the door back then. Since that time copies have turned up in the wilds, but are VG or lower grade. And those play very noisy. $1000
Sandy Coast "Subject Of My Thoughts" with picture sleeve - classic 2-sider. Now, I'm not hep on Eurobeat sides but I know what I had to give up to get this one! Both sleeve and record are mint minus, no flaws at all. $450
