Item Description

Artist: Tetragon Album Title: Nature Format: LP Label: Soma Country and Year of Release: Germany, 1971 Cover/Record Grade: VG /G One label has a tear on it see pictures Other Info: One of the mega rarities of the German underground prog rock scene.
Released on the obscure Soma label, this comes in a textured gatefold cover.
Some may be alarmed to see that the record is only graded as Good.
Keep in mind, though, that I take the grading terms at their literal meaning, so this grade does not mean that it s destroyed.
But I couldn t give the record a higher grade due to crackle, and even some pops, in certain sections.
There are no sticks or skips.
The noisier sections are: about the first 6 minutes of side 1, and about the first 5 minutes of side 2, plus some pops for about 10 seconds when the vocals start on side 2, track 2.
Much of the rest of the record is in the VG or higher range.
I ve priced this at about half what I would have expected to get if I were offering a copy in the Mint range, so unless you re looking for a top-condition copy, this will be a bargain by comparison.

Grading Information With very few exceptions, I play grade the records that I list.
This means that I don t go by the way a record looks, only by how it plays.
Sometimes when I have a group or a lot of LPs within a single listing, I will not play all the records, but this is fairly rare.
I use Mint M , Excellent Ex , Very Good VG , Good G , Fair F , and heaven help us Poor P , and I take each of these words at their literal meaning.
In other words, if I assign an LP a grade of G, that means to me that it really is in good playing condition, not fair or worse for many dealers, a G or even VG grade is often really nothing more than a euphemism for a record that is in fair or poor condition.
I also use up to three plus signs and up to three minus signs - to indicate varying degrees within a specific grade.
So, a grade letter followed by a means the condition is slightly better than the grade letter by itself, and a grade letter followed by indicates that the condition is yet another small step higher.
For example, a grade of Ex means that the record is very close to being in the Mint range, but still just shy of it.
This may seem like a strange system at first glance but I use it because I feel that the standard grading systems are inadequate, as they simply don t allow for enough grades or degrees within those grades.
Many don t use Excellent, for example, which means that there is a jump from Mint down to Very Good and there are a whole lot of grading possibilities in between those two, the way I see it.
