Description
This is one of those rare times that a NM looking record sounds VG on Side 1 and VG+ on Side 2. Side 1 has several pops and light surface noise that is fairly frequent. Not horrible, but there. Also, it has three quick, brief instances of distortion. Side 2 is much better but still has a few pops and once in while surface noise. Is it enjoyable? I would say Side 2 is enjoyable. I forgot about the occasional surface noise and once in a while pops. Side 1 was annoying once in a while. No tic sounds like scratches, but noise. PLEASE BID ACCORDINGLY.
Jacket is clean with one bumped corner and a crease lower right front of jacket, hence VG+ rating. Otherwise, jacket is NM. Please see large detailed photos of album.
On the upper left corner of the record sleeve is written what you see in the photo. Also, on each label someone put on a 6mm diameter sticker that says "LAST" on it. "LAST" is a fluid that some people put on records to preserve them and supposedly make them sound better.
I wound up using my VPI 16.5 record cleaning machine and Audio Intelligent Formula 15 cleaning solution followed by a rinse with purified water.
Insured shipping. International buyers will pay actual shipping costs (whatever the shipping cost plus the insurance comes out to be) if the actual postage is less than what eBay is indicating.
