Description

The Doors - Strange Days - original tan label MONO pressing, released in 1967.  Cover is VG with some edge, corner, and ring wear.  Vinyl is E- with a few light scuffs and superficial scratches; plays great in MONO, the way it's supposed to be heard!  Includes original inner dust sleeve, in VG condition.

From AllMusic:  Many of the songs on Strange Days had been written around the same time as the ones that appeared on The Doors, and with hindsight one has the sense that the best of the batch had already been cherry picked for the debut album. For that reason, the band's second effort isn't as consistently stunning as their debut, though overall it's a very successful continuation of the themes of their classic album. Besides the hit "Strange Days," highlights included the funky "Moonlight Drive," the eerie "You're Lost Little Girl," and the jerkily rhythmic "Love Me Two Times," which gave the band a small chart single. "My Eyes Have Seen You" and "I Can't See Your Face in My Mind" are minor but pleasing entries in the group's repertoire that share a subdued Eastern psychedelic air. The 11-minute "When the Music's Over" would often be featured as a live showstopper, yet it also illustrated their tendency to occasionally slip into drawn-out bombast.

Grading: Cover/vinyl.  All LPs are conservatively graded visually.  Play graded if questionable marks are perceived in the visual grading.  Vinyl will be graded from Fair to Near Mint with plus (+) or (-) gradations, as defined below.  Any cover wear will be described in detail.
Near Mint (NM)  -  Like new, but not perfect (unless sealed).
Excellent (EX) -  Light hairline scuffs that do not affect play.
Very Good (VG)  -  All original gloss, but with a few more hairline scratches and scuffs that do not materially affect play.
Good (G)  -  Lots of scuffs and light scratches that are audible in the play back; occasional hiss, clicks, and pops will be heard, but the LP still plays all the way through and the background noise does not overwhelm the listening experience.
Fair (F)  -  LP is a "filler" copy for your collection while you seek out a nicer copy; will have lots of background noise and may even skip.
