For years, Jonny Fritz traveled the world as a country music eccentric, maintaining the nonstop schedule of a road warrior whose giant-sized personality didn't overshadow, but rather magnified his talent at songwriting. Then, one day, he stopped. Fed up with the economic burdens of the music industry, he took a long break from the recording studio and the road. Debbie Downers - not just a single album, but a collection of four inter-linked records, each one featuring a different producer and a unique interpretation of the same album - marks his charismatic return. First up a the country record, the most conventional considering Jonny's catalog, that Fritz recorded in Nashville with a group of Music City sidemen.
Self-funded and independently conceived, Debbie Downers is a project fueled not by the music industry, but by a genuine love of music itself. Whether he's skewering his MAGA relatives ("Debbie Downers"), singing about the challenges of working at Walgreens with your roommate ("The Boss"), or sketching the portrait of a divorced father "trying hard to ignore the looks from the earth-tone moms" at the neighborhood playground, Fritz turns the everyday into the anthemic, creating a colorful soundtrack for blue-collar life. He's rested and rebalanced, back in the saddle after a long, voluntary break from the road. This time around, though, he'll be following his own path, not getting derailed by false hopes of pleasing the masses through convention, but rather aiming to please himself and his community of respected musicians.

GRADING
GRADING
Yellow Racket assigns condition based on the Goldmine Standard for grading records.
New (N) (Not typically included in the Goldmine Standard)
New records are purchased directly from the label, distributor, or registered wholesaler. Records are still sealed. Jackets may have slight shelf wear, but media has never been played.
Mint (M)
Still sealed. Never played. No observable flaws. Items have been purchased secondhand.
Near Mint (NM)
A Near Mint (NM) record will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. The record should show no obvious signs of wear.
The cover (and any additional packaging) has no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable defects.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
A Very Good Plus (VG+) record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.
Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches.
The disc and LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be gently marred by spindle marks, paper scuffs, wrinkled corners, etc.
Very Good (VG)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident, but will not overpower the music. Disc may have light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
Labels, jackets, and inserts will have visible cosmetic flaws such as wrinkles, cut-outs, slight splitting, etc. However, it will usually have less than a dozen minor flaws.
Good (G)
A record in Good condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present.
While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.
Poor (P), Fair (F)
The record may be cracked, badly warped, or won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve may be water damaged, split, or heavily marred by wear and writing.
