Item description
Van Morrison
A Period Of Transition
Vinyl LP - WB BS 2987
First Pressing (1977)
Co-produced by MacRebennack (Dr. John)
Condition: Very Good Vinyl and Very Good Cover. Vinyl was play-tested on both sides and plays very well throughout with good fidelity and occasional light background noise, but no skips. Original cover has good color, no splits or writing, minor creasing and a small cutout notch.. Includes original inner sleeve.
A Period of Transition is the ninth studio album by Van Morrison, released in 1977. It was his first album in two-and-a-half years. The album is notable for several major compositions, including "Heavy Connection", "Flamingos Fly", "The Eternal Kansas City" and "Cold Wind in August". The album was co-produced by Mac Rebennack (Dr. John), who also played keyboards and guitar; he had appeared with Morrison at the 1976 concert filmed as The Last Waltz.
In a retrospective review for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine was positive and said the album is "warm, welcoming, infused with spirituality and humor. Still like any period of transition, this is somewhat tentative and uneven, with its best moments, being at best, minor masterpieces."

_____________________________________________
I use the Goldmine Grading System, and play-test all records. I note any differences between vinyl and cover, and make note of any inserts, special sleeves, or potential defects.
MINT (M) - Absolutely perfect in every way. Most often this is a still sealed record, records that have been opened are rarely if ever marked as Mint.
NEAR MINT (NM) - A good description is that it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time. In other words, it?s nearly perfect, with no visible defects.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) - Except for a couple minor things, this could be Near Mint. Most collectors will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if on the high end (VG++). VG+ records may show slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Covers should have only minor wear.
VERY GOOD (VG) - VG records are among the biggest bargains, and for many, will be worth the money. They can lack the original gloss, may have surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages. But the noise will not overpower the music. VG covers will have signs of handling, and may have minor splits.
GOOD PLUS (G+) - Good+ does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, but it has significant surface noise and groove wear. Cover may have significant ring wear, noticeable writing, or obvious damage.
GOOD (G) - Record may have some skipping, but is otherwise listenable. I generally avoid selling Good (G) rated records unless they are highly collectible or desirable, in order to enjoy until something better comes along. Cover has major wear or seam splits that need repair, or heavy writing like radio station call letters to prevent theft.
