Description
PLEASE READ ENTIRE LISTING BEFORE BUYING
ARTIST: The Smack
TITLE: Smack
LP/COVER: VG(+)/VG
LABEL: Audio House
MADE IN: USA
COMMENTS: Mega-rare, original private label pressing, which was reportedly limited to just 150 copies. Strong VG vinyl is graded conservatively and it has some superficial scuffing and a few prominent (but still superficial) hairline marks on side two, none of which are necessarily the result of playback. Quick playtest yielded mild, occasional background noise at quiet parts and some intermittent clicks/pops, but nothing overly intrusive. That said, this is definitely a lo-fi recording (which isn't to mention that some of the tracks sound like they were transferred at the wrong speed). The cover has corner wear on the front (see photos) and some visible staining on the back (see photo). Shipping will come with insurance and require signature confirmation.
ALL LPs ARE VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE
I AM HAPPY TO COMBINE ON SHIPPING. IF YOU ORDER MORE THAN ONE ITEM, PLEASE REQUEST AN INVOICE.
