Description
LEVON HELM - ' DIRT FARMER ', Vanguard Records (79844-1) 2007.
Very rare 1st vinyl issue of this excellent later Levon Helm album.
NOTE: this LP bears a hype sticker stating '180 gram vinyl, hand numbered limited edition' - although this is one of the limited edition 1st pressings, only the first 500 were actually hand numbered by Levon himself in the end. This particular record is part of the original run with the sticker, but not early enough to be hand numbered by Helm.

CONDITION: EXCELLENT (Clearly only played a handful of times at most. Under a bright grading lamp, there are just a handful of very faint paper scuffs on the vinyl's surface from being carefully taken in and out of the inner sleeve. These do no affect playback of course and the vinyl is otherwise free of other imperfections - no scratches, no groove damage, etc. Plays strongly. Labels both clean. The sleeve is also in excellent shape, still mostly covered by it's original shrink - please see photos for exact condition)
