Greatest Sides

LP (Item 454575) Chess, 1960s/Early 70s — Condition: Very Good+
A great collection of Billy Stewart's work for Chess, mostly a greatest hits set as the title implies, and is filled with some of Stewart's best-remembered songs – like "Secret Love", "Summertime", "I Do Love You", "Sitting In The Park", "Fat Boy", "Cross My Heart", "Strange Feeling", "Reap What You Sow", "Why Do I Love You So?", and "Moon River".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Hansa, 1978. Very Good- Gatefold
A nice bit of space age disco fantasy from Boney M – a set that's got a few more electronic touches than some of the group's other records, but which still continues in a straight ahead poppy vein!
