Bob Seger Stranger In Town Capitol SW-11698 NEAR MINT-PLAYED ONCE to TRANSFER to OPEN REEL TAPE.
As a Professional Player for almost 30 years, most of my Collection was purchased New. Both visually examined & carefully listened to for defects*; IF THE VINYL WAS CLEAN , it was then transferred to my Revox A77 open reel ( and either a Tandberg or Nackamichi Cassette recorder, as well ;-} so that the many bands I worked with could study the tunes we played for a Living.  ULTIMATELY, I ENDED UP WITH LESS OCCUPIED STORAGE SPACE WHEN TRANSFERED TO 10.5" OPEN REEL TAPE ;-} HEY, I WAS A RECORD NUT COLLECTOR! LIKE I SAID; MANY WERE NOT EVER PLAYED, AS I WAS PLAYING 5 TO 6 NIGHTS A WEEK MOST OF THE TIMES. ( BTW; I ALWAYS HAD TOP-GRADE EQUIPMENT with fresh, high end stylus for my table, AS I ALSO DID HIGH-END SYSTEMS INSTALLATIONS HERE IN WESTCHESTER,NY ;-} AS SHOWN IN PHOTOS; CLEAN, TIGHT SPINDLE HOLES, MANY WERE EITHER PLAYED ONCE OR NOT PLAYED AT ALL! I WAS VERY BUSY AS A PLAYER THOSE DAYS. EITHER WAY; My M.O. WAS TO STORE MOST OF MY FAV. LPs IN PROTECTIVE VINYL SLEEVES, THEN STORING AWAY THE ORIGINAL SLEEVES,INSERTS,POSTERS,ETC. I STILL HAVE MOST OF THOSE ITEMS which will be sent to the NEW OWNER, INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE WHEN POSSIBLE. RECORDS WERE TYPICALLY PLAYED ONCE, then stored within my Collection.  If it's NOT PURCHASED NEW, I will describe it as such.  FYI; Been around vinyl collecting since the 1950's. Purchased both Private Collections, from stores where friends worked, received many as gifts, etc.    I WILL BE LISTING RECORDS FROM MY WAY-TOO LARGE COLLECTION AS TIME PERMITS, BUT FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME IF U R LOOKING FOR SOMETHING IN PARTICULAR! * CRAZY-NOTE CLOSER TALE:  I WAS A PERFECTIONIST WHO FREQUENTLY EXCHANGED A BAD COPY FOR A BETTER COPY; For example: I TOOK THE BEE GEES 1ST ALBUM BACK ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES AS IT WAS SO "DECCA-LIKE" WITH POOR PRESS-QUALITY! BEST ALBUM THEY EVER DID! FINALLY, "FOOD FOR THOUGHT". In actuality; These "OPENED & TRANSFERRED" records are one more level of Quality Control,  as my Obsessive Perfectionism those days insisted that the record passed the test when recording to open reel & cassette simultaneously. PLEASE NOTE: There is no guarantee that a "FACTORY SEALED" LP will not have any Factory defects (some sellers indicate "sold AS-IS" ;-}  These have both passed my "Mustard" and NOT been cleaned other than with a DISCWASHER brush & DISTILLED H20 to remove surface debris debris &  particulates.
