Ventures Christmas Album
LP (Item 594908) Dolton, 1965 — Condition: Very Good-
Here's some guys we'd be happy to have around at the Holidays – the ever-smokin' Ventures, who somehow manage to make every tune come out groovy – and here deliver what would HAVE to be on our shortlist of most treasured instrumental rock records in the Christmas music category! The set's an absolute classic – one that takes familiar numbers and transforms them into snow-surfing groovers, thanks to the group's great use of guitar and tightly snapping drums. A real crowd-pleaser, and a great antidote to the usual holiday fare – with tracks that include "Snow Flakes", "Sleigh Ride", "Blue Christmas", "Scrooge", "Jingle Bells", and "We Wish You A Merry Christmas". © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
Very Good - (minus)
- Vinyl may be dirty, and can lack a fair amount of luster.
- Vinyl can have a number of marks, either in clusters or smaller amounts, but deeper.
- This is the kind of record that you'd buy to play, but not because it looked that great. Still, the flaws should be mostly cosmetic, with nothing too deep that would ruin the overall record.
- Examples include a record that has been kept for a while in a cover without the paper sleeve, or heavily played by a previous owner and has some marks across the surface. The record should play okay, though probably with surface noise.
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.

Forward MotionWarner, 1973. Near Mint-
A killer second set from Section – a combo made up of key 70s studio players like Danny Kootch Kortchmar and drummer Craig Doerge!
