I AM OFFERING THIS AT 1/2 PRICE!!!
Background ## This is one of the most sought after rare Aboriginal Artists Compilations of the 1970's!!! Only one copy for sale on Discogs in Australia for $140.00, and they invariably sell for over $100.00 whenever they turn up!!! ## "You have to hear Cherie Watkins give it to the 'whitey cops' for their treatment of her people... unfortunately too little has changed in this regard!!! ##
Condition Report The Vinyl is described as Excellent+ & easily played to that standard today, below average background & no skips or stops.... Track A2 has a barely audible click in the background, however there are no lines to be seen... it might just be my stylus but regardless it is of no real consequence. Not too many signs of play. Several spindle marks only. There are a reasonable of extremely fine number of fine hairlines & sleeve marks to both sides of the record. The Vinyl has retained nearly all of its rich waxy lustre. The Cover is in amazing shape & I have described as Excellent. There is some visible edge/spine & corner-wear. There are some fine cracks to spine & edges with associated wrinkles. There is some minor ring wear to front & verso. There are some incredibly minor colour losses to edges & spine. No seam splits. Please see attached photos...
