Love (featuring Arthur Lee) DA CAPO, Elektra Stereo, First Pressing (1966)

$

50

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve and a 3 MIL soft poly inner sleeve.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

• Wow! When the Seller pulled this one out I couldn't believe the pristine condition of this classic released almost 50 years ago.
• Love's second album "Da Capo" preceded "Forever Changes" their best-known album. However, any fan of the late Arthur Lee knows that "Da Capo" was an equally great and groundbreaking album.
• Groundbreaking in the sense it was only the third rock album to feature one track taking up one side of a record. "Blonde on Blonde" and "Freak Out" were double LP's that preceded "Da Capo" by several months.
• This is a First Pressing as indicated by the matrix runouts. See the "Notes" below the Tracklist for complete runout details.
• This copy is on thick vinyl and has spindle marks on one side. The playing surfaces are clean..
• The single piece board cover has tight seams and shows slight cover wear.
• The original inner sleeve has the repeating gold Elektra logo. I have included a soft poly inner sleeve.
• Seller got this new circa 1969 in his record store. It has been in storage for more than 45 years.
