Description
Please Read: The MAJOR FLAW with this copy is a very light wobble/tremble that only effects the outermost bands, and becomes less significant as each side of the record plays. The wobble DOES NOT make the record skip on my cheap Audio-Technica table.
Here is a brief video of this exact disc being played, which shows how the OUTERMOST BANDS ON EACH SIDE "tremble" or "wobble":

For sale is one (1) copy of the legendary funk/soul outfit Kashmere Stage Band's "EXPO '75 - Concert Tour/Okinawa Japan" album on KRAM records with the label ID KRAM LP-108. To be clear, this is the original pressing and not a reissue or anything along those lines. Sleeve is still in the original, opened shrinkwrap and is tight and firm, with no split or chipping, but there is some discoloration happening--"tanning" of the white artwork background is evident at each corner, especially. The disc is extremely clean on both sides, with only minor dimpling on the labels and some light imperfections visible upon close inspection. Upon play-testing this record (Audio-Technica AT-LP120), I learned that there is a kind of "tremble" in the way the record plays (see video). I am not an expert on vinyl condition, but in my listening experience, the tremble/warp only effects the outermost bands of the vinyl. As the record plays, it becomes less and less significant. This is still a great placeholder copy with lots of enjoyment in it, and a higher-end turntable with a better cart and newer needle would probably handle the "tremble" better than my cheap one.
I have priced this record with the "tremble" in mind. It is really a very unfortunate flaw, as otherwise, the record is kind of a remarkable example of sought-after deep groove funk. It's so good.

This record will be shipped in a box, not a record mailer, and will ship from Louisiana in the USA. I will not accept returns due to condition issues stated in this listing.
