RECORD

WE GRADE THIS VINYL AS A STRONG NEAR MINT+

- We grade visually as well as by sound play -

The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings.

Mono copies of this album are NOT known to exist. Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording.

There is approx. a one inch scratch, more towards the center of the record. When listening to both sides of the record, in its entirety; I heard excellent sound quality on both sides. The scratch does not look to be deep. Please take a good look at all of the photos included in this listing. The picture of the scratch did not photograph well. I assure you that the scratch has no bearing on the excellent quality of this record!
