I know this to be a Promo for a couple of reasons... firstly the RSO labels made from extremely thin paper & are missing lots of information that would normally be included on all RSO proper release albums. They have omitted to hand stamp it like most of EJ's other Lebanese Promos, but with bombs dropping overhead & your staff being killed on a daily basis I think EJ can be forgiven. ## This Album was never released in Lebanon & this Promo is probably UNIQUE in all the World!! These Promo's come from a collection from one of Lebanon's foremost Music Company Executives known to me as EJ. EJ was Head of A&R for several Major Lebanese Record Companies over the years between 1965 through to 1975. He realised that these treasures would be lost for all time because of the wars that were raging there, & so when immigrating to Australia took these historically important Vinyl's with him. He kept these filed on shelves and only after his death did his daughter approach me to get advice as to how to best deal with the sale of these rare treasures. For all those that follow me here at balmain_tiggy you will have seen previously unknown Lebanese releases from Led Zeppelin, Alice Cooper, The Bee Gees, Pink Floyd etc... selling for some amazing prices, luckily all the buyers to date are specialist collectors that will treasure them for posterity!! ##
Addendum <<< I know this to be a Promo for a couple of reasons... firstly the RSO labels are made from extremely thin paper & are missing lots of information that would normally be included on all RSO released albums. They have omitted to hand stamp it like most of EJ's other Lebanese Promos, but with bombs dropping overhead & your staff being killed on a daily basis, I think EJ can be forgiven! >>> (Strangely enough if this was the only known pressing & release of 'Mr. Natural' in Lebanon, it would arguably be worth more than this Promo!!)
Condition Report The Vinyl is described as Near Mint to Mint & to be honest, looks Unplayed. Very few signs of play if any. Maybe 1 or 2 extremely fine hairlines and/or sleeve marks but I can't see them. No spindle marks. The Vinyl has retained all of its rich waxy lustre.
The Cover is a German Cover which was the custom when giving Lebanon their new Promos. The Cover described as Excellent. There is some edge/spine & corner-wear. There are some fine cracks to spine & edges with associated wrinkles. There is some minor ring wear to front & verso. There are some very minor colour losses to edges & spine. No seam splits. Please see attached photos...
