The Knickerbockers
Oktoberfest Ein Prosit
The Knickerbockers - Oktoberfest Ein Prosit - 1975 - VG+ - Ult Cln - Both records have enough very light hairlines (put two records in a single sleeve, even with inner sleeves, guess what happens?) that I'm calling them VG+, but they are better than that.. - The record has been cleaned using ultrasonic technology and is a little rough, in VG+ condition. The cover is crisp, only a VG+ because of age and/or tag residue or writing!

The Knickerbockers
The American garage rock band formed in Bergenfield, New Jersey, in the early 1960s, has a rich history marked by several lineup changes and musical evolution. The original band members included Beau Charles, who played guitar and provided vocals from 1962 to 1972, with subsequent returns in 1983 and 1990; John Charles (3), on bass and vocals, active during the same years; Bill Crandall, who contributed vocals, saxophone, and drums from 1964 to 1967, with a brief return from 1968 to 1970 and again in 1990; and Jimmy Walker, who played drums and provided vocals from 1964 to 1967, returning in 1983 and 1990.
Throughout its evolution, the band saw various past members, including Skip Cherubino on drums from 1962 to 1963, Ned Brown on keyboards in 1962, and Peter Glitz on drums from 1963 to 1964. Other notable past members included Richie Walker, who provided vocals from 1967 to 1970; Barry McCoy on keyboards from 1967 to 1968; John Deleone on drums during the same period; and Pete LoCascio on drums in 1962. Ritchie Costanza took on vocals from 1970 to 1972, alongside Eric Swanson (5), who played drums from 1970 to 1972.
Description
The Knickerbockers - Oktoberfest Ein Prosit - 1975 - VG+ - Ult Cln - Both records have enough very light hairlines (put two records in a single sleeve, even with inner sleeves, guess what happens?) that I'm calling them VG+, but they are better than that.. - The record has been cleaned using ultrasonic technology and is a little rough, in VG+ condition.

SRO Records Record Grading Guide:
SEALED/Mint:
Vinyl: Assumed mint, unverified until opened.
Sleeve: Visible through shrink wrap, graded as above.
NM (Near Mint):
Vinyl: Nearly flawless, with possible minor scuffs or hairlines only visible under strong light.
Sleeve: Appears new, as if freshly printed.
EX (Excellent):
Vinyl: Bright, with minor surface wear and hairlines, not affecting play.
Sleeve: May have faint creases or abrasions, but artwork is clean.
VG+ (Very Good Plus):
Vinyl: Obvious wear, scuffs and hairlines, plays with some noise but no major sound issues.
Sleeve: Worn with creases, noticeable wear, acid deterioration, corner dings, chipping, and possible seam wear.
Here's the typical SRO Records line in the sand. Anything below VG+, unless it's rare, unusual or just awesome, we're NOT going to sell online, much less go through the hassle of an ultrasonic cleaning, we're going to put it in one of many $10 Record boxes that we sell at Record Conventions and events. Some will wind up in the $1 Box, just to get it back out into the world for someone to enjoy or make a planter out of.
VG (Very Good):
Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, somehow plays with persistent noise but no skips.
Sleeve: Worn with possible seam splits and moderate ring wear.
G+ (Good Plus):
Vinyl: Numerous marks and scratches, plays with significant noise but music usually overpowers flaws.
Sleeve: Rough appearance with possible seam splits and water damage.
G (Good):
Vinyl: Copious unforgettable marks, probably a skip or jump.
Sleeve: Heavy ring wear and damage, likely large seam splits or water damage.
F (Fair):
Vinyl: It's round with nearly infinite damage, skipper gonna skip
Sleeve: It's basically what's left of the sleeve for the album
