Description
PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER). OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.
OK salsa collectors, here it is. One of the holy grails. An OFF-THE-CHARTS-RARE original first (and ONLY) Puerto Rican pressing of Raffi Diaz Y Su Combo's Los Bravos Echen Para Aca LP from 196?/197? on the yellow Jenny label. LP is VG- visually only with a few small scratches at 9:00 on the first two songs on side A that can be lightly felt and cause a few light clicks. Plays great otherwise with amazingly little background noise. This LP was superbly mastered and as a result the sound is front and center which seriously helps drown out any distracting background noise. Cover is still in the original shrink wrap(!) with a fray spot on the tip of the bottom right hand corner and a tiny seam and small light stain at the bottom middle where there is a small opening in the cellophane. Even has the original Casa Noel price tag on the cellophane in the top left hand corner on the font cover. THAT'S provenance. It's been over five years since a copy of this holy grail has come up for sale according to Popsike and since then this album has become one of the most sought-after salsa LPs in the world so don't sleep. It will most likely be a lot longer before another one surfaces. Due to the rarity of this LP it will require additional insurance and tracking so please wait for an invoice.
