Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
John Lennon
IMAGINE
Rare Quadraphonic Pressing!
This listing is for rare and hard to find copy of the John Lennon solo album Imagine. This is the 1972 'Quadraphonic' pressing!
The original 1971 stereo issue was a huge seller but this later release from 1972 is seldom ever seen. The quadraphonic albums produced 4 channels of sound rather than stereo's 2 and require a special SQ compatible record player for fully appreciate their content. Due to their niche appeal copies were only ever produced in highly limited numbers and, today, are very hard to find!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

Inserts Condition - Disc Condition(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in VG+ condition. Overall the disc is very clean with a great shine to it and just some light, faint scuffs here and there. I would have graded the disc a solid EX but sadly there's a small but feelable mark on side 2 through track 4 at 10 o'clock. Label Condition The labels are in NM- condition. Near-flawless labels with just a little, very light faint spindlewear - a little more on the side 2 label.

My Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
