Description
Dancehall Reggaespañol Columbia Records/Sony Music Entertainment C 48526 Released on November 26, 1991. So far as I know, this album (like many in 1991) was deleted from Columbia's catalogue as soon as the last copies rolled off the press, so it's not super-common. This was among the last to be pressed at Columbia's Carrollton, Ga., pressing plant before it shut its doors during the CD boom/LP demise of the early '90s. Record NM -- perfect playback throughout. Please note that the LP does have strips of paper from the innersleeve flecked into part of the edge on both sides; probably the LP wasn't quite cool when inserted into its innersleeve. Since these in no way affect playback and are solely cosmetic, please consider the album NM. Jacket VG+ -- only downgraded due to the presence of a deletion holecut and a minor crease at the top of the open end. Otherwise, the jacket is still in its shrinkwrap and doesn't show wear -- it really looks brand new, essentially. Includes a custom innersleeve.
Here is one of the notable LPs that attests to the brief popularity of reggae dancehall music in the early 1990s. "Dancehall Reggaespañol" is a compilation that includes Spanish and English language tracks from Marcony, El General, Supercat, Ninjaman, and La Atrevida (Rude Girl) popular in New York clubs a quarter-century ago. Please note that this LP copy omits four tracks available on the CD version, to keep the side times down (although the LP is still lengthy at 56 minutes, and expertly Direct Metal Mastered by Europadisc's Jim Shelton to boot). Happy bidding!

"Quality items at reasonable prices from an eccentric merchant!"
As a math teacher and long-time record buyer with a definite passion for both vocations, I am excited to continue to make available LPs I have collected over the last seventeen years but now need to winnow from my shelves. The items I will be posting include quite a range of genres and interests - soundtracks, specialty records, and albums ranging from the typical mainstream to the unexpectedly weird. Check back often to see what surprises I've got in store!
Please note my conditions of sale:
-I use Goldmine standards to rate my albums, and I seek to do so conservatively. Items will often receive both a visual check and a playgrade, so that I can review the material one last time and also listen for any differences between audible quality and my visual perception of an album's surface. If there are any potential flaws in an item, I will make sure you know about those upfront. As a rule, I will not attempt to sell records that rate below VG for the total package (unless the item in question is rare or hard to come by). Because I deal largely in used stock and will be thorough in explaining an item's condition, please note that all sales are "as is" and final - returns are not accepted.
-I ship through USPS services to destinations in the U.S. only. All records will be packed sturdily with quality outer cardboard, with records and innersleeves removed from jackets to avoid seam splits on used items. Because of the demands of my work schedule, shipments typically go out twice a week, by Wednesday (for albums paid for during the previous weekend) and by Saturday (for all later payments). Whenever possible, I crank out shipments faster than this, so rest assured you'll get your order quickly.
-I will accept payments for items through PayPal only. If you win one or more of my auctions, please make sure items are paid for within 7 days of the listing's end. Please note that I open failure-to-pay cases against those who do not pay or make any attempt to communicate with me within my stated timeframe, so only bid or commit to buy if you intend to follow through with a payment.
-Shipping will be at cost to the buyer, through Media Mail. I charge a starting fee of $3.12 for one album, then 50 cents per each additional LP in your order.
-I will always be willing to combine shipping on multiple wins/purchases. Just make sure to request an invoice prior to completing your purchase.
-A word to the wise on how I consider best offers: I often accept offers up to 30% below the listing value for my items. Please avoid lowball offers!
-The bottom line: I will make every attempt to insure your satisfaction as my customer. Let me know of any problems prior to posting negative or neutral feedback, as this will help me to refine my services and better serve my fellow record collectors out there. Enjoy!
