Description

FM - Head Room - Vinyl Direct to Disc (D2D) LP - 1978 - Rare Label - Rare - Collector's Item
The Discwasher Group - LB-1001 - 1978 - Promo
Before there was Half Speed Mastering, the only real commercially available audiophile recordings were Direct To Disc. This is a Direct to Disc LP that was pressed in '78 to show off Direct to Disc (D2D) cutting/pressing technology.  There are commercial versions of this on Labyrinthe Records and Esoteric Records, but apparently Discwasher bought a limited run to distribute as promos to folks in the distribution chain.

Inner Sleeve Condition: EX
Vinyl Appearance: NM
Vinyl Flatness: 9/10
Side A Matrix/Runout:  LBR-1001-A-4
Disc Weight: 105g
Visible Defects: None
Other: 

This is from my personal collection, acquired while working for the Record Bar chain in the 70's & 80's.  I have tried to describe each LP as accurately as possible and encourage you to examine each of the pictures carefully.  Questions are welcomed.  Please keep in mind these are first and foremost 35+ year old collector's items, and that vinyl LPs of that time were commodities, produced quickly, bulk shipped and racked.  Most that I offer for sale were either promos, second copies or just acquired to collect.  Many of the LPs without shrinkwrap were either "cleans" received from label reps as promotional quid pro quos or imports that were not originally shrinked.  Promos are (mostly) marked with stamps, sawcuts or labels and will be noted as such and are mostly first pressings. These have been stored in a temperature controlled room in repurposed record store LP storage browsers. As a rule, if I was going to actually listen to a particular LP, I copied it to a cassette and then shelved it.

Securely Shipped in custom mailer, with sealed bubble wrap envelope via USPS Media Mail. Items paid from by 3PM EST/EDT are usually shipped same day
