Bob Dylan – Beyond a Shadow of Doubt – Sounds Very Good

I bought this many years ago from Ashwoods in Pitt Street Sydney. Old school Sydneysiders would know the place. I can’t guarantee that the copyright laws were complied with in the production of this vinyl. It says that it was made in Holland. Perhaps they smoked to much of a certain product when making it. The labels attribute it to Bruce Dilion.

I have listened it and the tracks are as follows:

• A1 Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts
• A2 If You See Her, Say Hello
• A3 You’re a Big Girl Now
• A4 Idiot Wind
• B1 It Ain’t Me, Babe
• B2 Never Let Her Go
• B3 I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine
• B4 I Shall Be Released
• B5 Just Like a Woman
• B6 Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door

I listened to the album just before I listed it, (I always do. I never buy vinyl at a garage sale, list it, and hope for the best) It sounded Very Good. However, it may sound differently on your equipment. I use either a DENON DP-29J or a Vintage Marantz TT 2200 turntable. These are connected to a Rotel RA -412 Integrated Amplifier (which has two phono inputs)

I am not sure how you grade a record without listening to it!

The grading for a record is ultimately an opinion. I do try to be objective. My personal criteria for grading vinyl are:

Near Mint: On playing the record no clicks or pops

 Excellent: Only clicks and pops between tracks and none in the tracks

Very Good: A few clicks and pops in the tracks, but it does not impact the enjoyment of the album

I mostly, with a few exceptions for rarities, only sell very good, and above, vinyl.

I pack the albums for postage in recycled materials to reduce the environmental impact of the transaction. If you have any concerns as to how the records are packed, please contact me.
