Jerry Garcia Band Cats Under The Stars LP still in factory SHRINK.  1st Owner MINT-PLAYED ONCE TO TRANSFER TO OPEN REEL TAPE*.

*BETTER THAN SEALED IN MANY CASES ( THAT IS, IF U INTEND TO OPEN! ;-} AS THIS PUPPY WAS CHECKED FOR EGREGIOUS FACTORY DEFECTS WHILE RECORDING BY A PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN WITH A DISCRIMINATING EAR. WILL BE SENT TO YOU IN A FRESH HIGH QUALITY ANTI-STATIC ROUND BOTTOM INNER SLEEVE. IF THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE IS SHOWN IN PHOTOS, THAT WILL BE YOURS, AS WELL. PLEASE PARDON THE REFLECTIONS FROM THE HIGH INTENSITY MAGNIFIER LAMP. BEST I COULD DO TO PROPERLY SHOW THE CONDITION AS CLEARLY AS POSSIBLE. SOME DUST MAY BE PRESENT, AS I ONLY USED A DISCWASHER BRUSH & ANTI STATIC BRUSH,AS WELL.

WAY TOO MANY;-}DETAILS & PROVENANCE;
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 a Tandberg or Nackamichi Cassette recorder, as well ;-} so that the many bands I worked with could study the tunes.
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. SO, the Turntable used was either my THORENS TD-24 with a 12" Shure tonearm or another THORENS with an Infinity Graphite  "BLACK WIDOW" tonearm.  My M.O. WAS TO STORE MOST OF MY FAV. LPs IN PROTECTIVE VINYL SLEEVES, THEN STORING THE ORIGINAL SLEEVES,INSERTS,ETC.  I STILL HAVE MOST OF THOSE ITEMS. I WILL INCLUDE 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. PLEASE PARDON & NOTICE THE CONSISTENT REFLECTIONS FROM THE HIGH INTENSITY MAGNIFIER LAMP. HOPING TO SHOW AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE; DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE PICS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.    Lastly (Whew;-} 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; I.E.; 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!
