NOTE:  This came from a large collection of LPs stored for many years by an individual associated with the radio station at a historically black university back in the mid 1970s-early 80s.  Most appear to have been sampled once, or otherwise unplayed.  Guaranteed to be original and not a modern repro.  I have been listing many albums from this collection in the past several months, and the feedback has been awesome.

Condition: 

DISC:  Vinyl is NEAR MINT with 100% of original gloss, as clean as can be found.  Appears to have been played one or two times at most, and handled with utmost care.  No evidence of ever having been on a turntable.  Labels are pristine with no spindle trail marks.  Fidelity will be superb.  I cannot imagine a finer example. 

JACKET:  Jacket is NEAR MINT in original factory shrink wrap.  Flawless front and back panels.  Excellent seams and corners except for slight bumps at top left and bottom right corners.  No writing, stickers, or other problems.  A stunningly beautiful package of jacket and disc.

Track Listing: 

Side One:  

• Motherless Child
• Sekou
• Hanifah

Side Two:   

• Key to Nowhere
• The Void
• Nature’s Blues
• Celebration

Guaranteed to be original and authentic.  I do not sell bootlegs or modern reissues.
