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.
RARE original Jacksonville first pressing from April, 1978 on Warner Brothers' palm tree label with Burbank address and glossy full color printed inner sleeve!!! LP is VG+/VG++ with a few light paper scuffs. Cover is still in the original shrink wrap and beautiful with barely a hint of wear in the bottom right hand corner where there is a small opening in the cellophane. Even has the original $7.99 Sound Warehouse (R.I.P.) price sticker in the top right hand corner on the front cover dated 8-10-88 which, to me, begs the question "Why did this take ten years to sell?". One of the most influential albums in the entire history of heavy metal and one of only a VERY small number of albums to completely change the entire musical landscape of its time. This LP motivated a million people to pick up the guitar or quit playing the guitar altogether after coming to the quick realization that they would never be this good no matter how long they practiced. Simply essential listening. You NEED this LP.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED) NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF US VG+: AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG: STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR: FILLER COPY ONLY. LOTS OF SCRATCHES
