Description
An absolute ultimate grail for collectors of the Queen of Country: an exceptional, original 1977 first-edition promotional pressing of Dolly Parton’s monumental crossover masterpiece, Here You Come Again (RCA APL1-2544).
This is not a standard retail copy. This is a verified, early industry-insider variation highlighting premium sonic specifications that set it apart from mass market pressings.
True Audiophile & Collector Pedigree:
- The Gold Foil Promo Stamp: Features the original, authentic embossed vintage gold "Demonstration - Not For Sale" stamp on the rear jacket cover.
- The Mythic "1S / 1S" Matrix Runout: The dead-wax on both sides is hand-etched/stamped with the coveted 1S / 1S codes. This proves the vinyl was stamped from the earliest master lacquer parts cut at The Mastering Lab in Hollywood in 1977. This matrix pairing delivers the deepest, punchiest, and most pristine analog acoustic dynamics possible.
- Deluxe Packaging: Housed in its stunning original 1977 gatefold layout featuring timeless Ed Caraeff photography.
