I am not an expert on grading records but will give you a general description. This is fairly used and played record with usual light scratches on the vinyl. Has a minor pen writing on Side A. The cover sleeves is in very good condition. The side and seem are intact without any spit. Still a desirable copy.

Still one of the HARDEST to find Pinoy Rock Psych / Progressive Album.   Complete your MIKE HANOPOL. I have posted my entire Juan Dela Cruz, Mike Hanopol, and the Rock / Psych / Progressive LPs on eBay

About MIKE HANOPOL

When it comes to Pinoy Rock Music, only one male performer reigns supreme up to this day, Mike Hanopol - noted of his black beret and powerful raspy voice.

Long before today’s young showbands, like the Eraserheads, Rockstar, Introvoys, True Faith and Alamid, came to fore, there was already the Juan De La Cruz Band where Mike Hanopol started out in 1974. The group recorded such hits as "Balong Malalim", "Karagatan", and "Divisoria".

In 1976, Mike Hanopol started on a solo career. His hit songs included, Buhay Musikero, with Willy Cruz and Danny Javier(of Apo) as his record producers.

In 1977, Mike Hanopol’s name soared higher as he released "Laki Sa Layaw", which gives rise to the term "JEPROX". Mike earned three albums for Blackgold and a reunion LP with the Juan de la Cruz Band
