RECORDS LISTED $4 are now $2; RECORDS LISTED $3 are now $1! This document only. Go get 'em! I would like to clean some of these out. Specify if you'll take added copies. Frank Merrill/Saturday Night Records, 848 Dodge Avenue, #PMB-112 Evanston IL 60202 fmerr____illjr___@gmail____.___com REMOVE ALL HEAVY UNDERSCORES, and you’ve got it! …PLEASE BE SURE TO PUT YOUR POSTAL ADDRESS ON YOUR ORDER… ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS: PLEASE MAKE SURE I ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR EMAIL WITHIN THREE DAYS. Sometimes (though not often) emails disappear, and a non-reply may mean your email was never received (I ALWAYS reply). ALL PRICES ON THIS LIST ARE SET SALE. THESE ARE THE PUNK, NEW WAVE, AVANT-GARDE, GRUNGE, ETC. RECORDS THAT WILL NOT APPEAR ON PAPER LISTS. Thise complement the CURRENT (in Part One, near the top of the index) punk list. With this list and that list, you will see all such records that have been prepared and offered, other than some new wave and rock and such in NONCHART. ITEM DESCRIPTIONS: To save time, sometimes I rely on descriptions from Popsike and Discogs, when I felt I needed more information. If you see some description in [brackets] it is a description from the Internet. This may be a COMPOSITE of two or more descriptions – “KBD hardcore punk” could have been gleaned from three different sales. Some that I played, I describe in my own terms. If you do NOT see a TEMPO/SPEED (slow, ms, midt, mf, fast) in the description, that almost certainly means I didn’t play the record. ALL ITEMS **ALWAYS MUST** HAVE TWO GRADES: If anything has only one grade, please tell me! NOTE: THE GRADE FOR THE PS MAY BE IN THE LABEL/NUMBER PART (oldest listings), or will appear together after the titles (most listings). Someday I’ll change all of them over for coinsistency. COMMONLY USED ABBREVIATIONS: (The price appears after the PHYSICAL conditions of the record, & BEFORE music descriptions, origin, etc.) alt - Alternative DJ or dj- promotional copy (usually sent to radio stations as “freebies” back in the day). Shown with label-and-number. foldover (usually abbreviated fo)- Instead of a true GLUED/ENCLOSING Pic Sleeve, this is usually a 7 inch x 14 inch piece of paper folded in half, functional as a picture sleeve. This is done quite commonly with punk and independent records. [RECORD GRADING] GRADING RANGES, best to worst: m-, vg+, vg, vg-, G+, G. (and, rarely, Poor – which means may not play). Grading is intended to be similar to the grading that is most prevalent. My grading is “known” to nearly all by now. M- allows for minor *SILENT* aging, dust, or such. VG is “ordinary used condition”. G means noisy playing. fast - the music is FAST tempo. (Note that fast is always spelled out.) mf - MIDFAST (almost fast) tempo mid (or midt) – MID-tempo ms - MIDSLOW tempo slow (or sl) - music is SLOW tempo. . I., Inst., Instr., Instru. - INSTRUMENTAL song, one or both sides, as indicated. lyrics - I will tell WHERE the lyrics are, if they’re part of the issue. Maybe on a separate sheet, maybe inside a fo Pic Sleeve. s o c c = sticker on cover, foldover, or PS s o l - sticker on label w o c - writing on cover or PS w o l - writing on label ALSO, note that I sometimes use STATE abbreviations, common city abbreviations like NYC, L. A. or Chi.; also UK, etc. Also, I **OFTEN** avoid some of these abbreviations, and instead spell out what I’m trying to say.
