Description
GOLDEN DRAGON: Highway Child/Love (Golden Dragon Band GDB-5114/1980)
Heavy metallic psych 2-sided monster featuring guitarist/bassist/vocalist extraordinaire "Freddie Mabuhay", who was the bass player of funk band Dakila in the70's. That shows on Love with its funky guitar riff and drum rhythm. This song was not included on the LP released a year later.
The record comes in a foldout handmade cardbaord sleeve. Everything seen on the front cover photo below is pasted on by hand except for the song title written in red marker. Also the inscription "To Ron" is handwritten, presumably by Mabuhay. The inside has a paste-on short bio and an innersleeve that housed the record. The back is blank. Also included is an oversized red one-sided sheet that was used for the cover of the alternate one-sided version of this 45.
The foldout sleeve is VG+ (some minor ring creasing & some creasing in lower right corners). The red insert is VG (heavy scalloping across upper edge; somecreasingalongbottom)The record looks Ex (a few light scuff marks on each side), play Mint minus.
A copy of the one-sided 45 is also available (see my other auctions).

GENERAL INFO
SHIPPING: Shipping costs will be quoted based on cost for estimated weight plus $1.00 to cover most of the cost of packing materials.
All records are packed in in between two cardboard filler pads and shipped in professional cardboard mailing boxes. All unsealed 12" records are taken out of their covers to prevent seam splitting. If there is a custom inner sleeve, the record will be put in a separate white inner. If a 7" record comes in a picture sleeve, the same procedure is followed.
GRADING: I grade records both visually and audibly. As grading is so imprecise and subjective, I don't have a set grading description like you see listed in many auction and collector magazines. My grades for records and covers are based on the overall conditions I describe in each auction; I will note any visual defects and (for the vinyl) any non-musical sounds (pops, clicks, skips, etc.).
