Description
PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER). OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.
RARE STILL SEALED, individually hand-numbered gatefold 7" put out by the always-reliable Light In The Attic Records available exclusively on Record Store Day on April 17, 2010 with a live version of his now-classic Inner City Blues on the A-side recorded on the streets of Paris and a live cover of Sinatra's I'm Gonna Live Till I Die on the reverse!!! Includes the original hype sticker in the top right hand corner on the front, an enclosed Light In The Attic CD sampler, issue number 2 of the Light In The Attic Zine and gold embossed lettering on the cover! Limited to 1500 copies worldwide even though the hype sticker mistakenly lists the total number of copies at 2000! This particular copy is numbered 886. Record is pristine with four sharp corners and not a hint of ring. I bought this new at Reckless Records here in Chicago at their Wicker Park location over 13 years ago(!) and filed it away in my private collection until today when I took these pics. Even has the original custom barcoded Reckless info label dated April, 2010 and listed as new so you know it's legit. A stone mint copy with airtight provenance that can be traced to the exact month and point of purchase. This is what collecting is about. You will not be disappointed.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING: MINT (SEALED)
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE VG+: AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG: STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR: FILLER COPY ONLY. LOTS OF SCRATCHES
