Rare record, hard to find, especially in this condition
This classic vinyl pressing is from my personal collection. I was a New York City nightclub DJ from 1972 through 1988, and I am auctioning off most of my classic record collection for others to enjoy.
Since I was at the beginning of the emergence of the disco era, these records have lots of history to them. This record was never in a record store being manhandled by hundreds, if not thousands of careless people. The only other caring fingerprints on this record could have been from other professional DJ / artists of my time such as: the legendary Walter Gibbons (DJ remixer) Jim Burgess (DJ / Producer / Remixer) Ray F. Caviano ( RFC Records / Producer) Eddie Rivera (International Disco Record Center) Jenny Costa (WKTU guest DJ), David Mancuso (The Loft at 99 Prince St. / Record Pool) or David Morales (For The Record / Def Jam / Producer / Songwriter / Remixer). If this record could talk!
This record was given to me from Eddie Rivera at his Record Pool: "International Disco record Center" NYC., 1980.
All of my auctioned records are in excellent condition, and can be programmed in clubs today, to the likeness of quality they had "back in the day" otherwise they will not be listed.
VINYL CONDITION Goldmine Standards: Excellent. Has light paper skid marks, and very light visible surface scratches, but plays wonderful. No skipping, cracking or pops. It has a nice luster. This is highly unusual for a 28 year old record.
We're dealing in vinyl here...something that lasts for all eternity...not like tapes or CD's where their musical content "vaporizes" after 100 years. This record was kept in a smoke free, well ventilated, dehumidified, air-conditioned, pest free, pet free environment for decades. This record plays in immaculate condition, and is one of the first pressings, for DJ's only, made loud and clear for programming in top clubs
Label: Excellent. This RARE WARNER BROS, RECORDS PROMO label has no spindle wear, no label fading, no notations or pen marks. It is fresh and clean.
The Promo indication on this label boldly states that this is no ordinary record. It was specially pressed for some of the top DJ's in the country (like Me) to utilize its deep , wide spaced grooves to produce a bold, strong, musical presence. It is meant to be programmed at a high volume level, such as a Nightclub with a professional sound system.
Cover Condition: Excellent. Really nice jacket. Little bit of wear around edges, and slightly yellowed. Nice overall color retention. No writing, notations or marks whatsoever. Ringwear just starting to lightly show.
This is VERY scarce to find this record in this condition.
GOOD HOME NEEDED:
Please don't bid on this record if you are an investor, and your only objective is to give it a "quick turn" for profit.
Only good DJ's, and record preservationist's (collectors) deserve a classic like this.
Please take good care of this classic record. Give her a good loving home. She has consistently performed well all of her life. Take good care of her. Don't place her on something that may scratch her...or cause her harm. Keep her away from heat and direct hot sun, which will cause her to wilt and expire. Don't mix her up in a different cover...or misplace her...she may miss you. Occasionally, place her gently on a padded platter, and carefully lay down her lover...a clean and balanced tonearm not to exceed 3.0 grams of weight, and she will sing for all eternity. This is all I ask.
Winner: please pay within 3 days. Paypal preferred.
To sellers abroad...please check with your customs bureau. Don't get me in the middle. Tariffs SUCK. Don't be surprised when it arrives at your border. Know what to do.
All records shipped outside N. America must be insured. Especially Italy. No exceptions.
