Description
Very rare copy of the 1974 Archie Shepp LP "The Way Ahead" Impulse AS-9170 stereo in the gatefold jacket and original Impulse paper sleeve.
The jacket is only rated in "EX+" condition because it has a slight bubbling of the cellophane on the top left of the jacket cover; the promo sticker is on the lower left corner; the spine is tight and there are no seam splits or cutout holes; the jacket has never been opened all the way (see photos).
The heavy gauge vinyl is in "NM" condition with excellent sheen and rainbow highlights; It does not look like the record has ever been played (see photos). Matrix numbers are etched AS-9170-A/AS-9170-B.
Grading is based on the following criteria:
“SS” Still Sealed – For the collector that demands nothing but perfection.
“M” Mint - a near perfect or unplayed record.
“NM” Near Mint - in factory fresh condition, like new.
“EX+” close to like new with only superficial signs of use that don't affect play. Will satisfy all but the most vain and demanding collector.
“EX” a used, reasonable copy. Shows slight signs of wear.
“VG+” There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility a few skuffs and/or light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still quite nice.
I have a large personal collection of jazz records that I have owned since the 1970s (most of which came from a local radio station and were never played) and I am going to be listing them through ebay. Although I am a new ebay seller, I am being assisted by an experienced ebay record seller who has had over 500 transactions with a 100% positive feedback rating. Please feel free to email me with questions or requests for specific artists and/or LPs.
