Description
For sale is a vinyl record by Eydie Gorme & The Trio Los Panchos titled "Amor", originally released in 1964 by Columbia Records. This original pressing has red labels, with "COLUMBIA" in white at the top, along two white CBS logos, looking like "Eyes", one on each side of the center hole on the outside of the label's rim, commonly called "2-Eye" Columbia labels, as well as "GUARANTEED HIGH FIDELITY" along the bottom of the label in black. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and immediately put the album into an archival inner sleeve. I always put my new records directly into a protective inner sleeve(s), thus preserving the integrity of the vinyl and any original inner sleeve(s) that may have come with the release. There is no original inner sleeve with this listing. Inside the dead wax, between the last tracks and the labels is machine stamped an upper case "S" along with a lower case "o", followed by an etching of the matrix numbers 1-F/1-F, indicating that this record was mastered at Columbia Records' Customatrix, before early stampers were used to make this record at Columbia Records' pressing plant located in Santa Maria, California. These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for theit superior sound qualities. The vinyl is visually graded as Excellent, with surfaces that are shiny and bright, in a like-new condition, with superficial surface scratches anf faint sleeve marks, but without any scuffs, smudges or spindle marks on the labels. I'm play grading this record as Excellent because of an occasional "tic" and low level background noise, along with one low level pop on Side One. It pays all the way through without any skips or lock-ups from start to finish. The cover is graded as Very Good Plus because of minor corner blunts and a triangular piece of paper missing from the lower left hand corner of the back cover. The spine is Near Mint with very minor damage to the corners. This is the best copy of this very rare record that I have ever seen or heard, and you would be hard pressed to find an original "2-Eye" pressing in this condition ever again. This would make a great addition to a anyone's collection. I have other Pop albums, as well as records of all different genres, listed in my Ebay store. Please take a look. They're predominately Near Mint. Thank you for viewing my listing. I've been collecting records for about 50 years now and have always cleaned them and put them away carefully in plastic inner sleeves. Over the years I've used Dust Bugs, Disc Washers and have finally invested in a professional VPI record cleaning machine. Now that I'm retiring, I'm selling my very esoteric collection. I'm not a professional grader of records, but will use record guides, as well as my personal experiences as a basis of my grading all records. Since grading is subjective, I will be conservative. I offer discounts for multiple sales. Photos are of the actual item for sale, not a stock photo. Please review all descriptions and photos because I do not accept returns. Thank you for looking!
