Description

Simon & Garfunkel "Sounds of Silence" 1966 Vinyl Stereo 360 Sound CS 9269 Shrink Wrap. The A side has a small blotch mark on the vinyl that doesn't significantly degrade the sound. Some very light fuzz noise on quite parts and in between tracks of A1, A2, and A3. Tracks A1, A2, A4, A6, B2, and B3 are rated VG+ due to scattered light surface noise that does not overpower the music. Tracks A3, A5, B1, B4, and B5 are excellent. Still an enjoyable listen. Cover is excellent. The price sticker is on the shrink wrap, not the cover. 
This is the first US stereo release. This stereo version includes Tiger Beat magazine in the group pictures on the back cover. Later versions have the Tiger Beat image airbrushed out. On lower right bottom corner of back cover there is a small number "1" (see pic).
Red Columbia label with white "360 Sound" lettering, and the word "NONBREAKABLE" to the left of the hole. (At the start of 1967, in January, Columbia stopped including this word on its labels, so ALL labels without it are post-late 1967 pressing).  This is a genuine very first-run pressing of this title, because it also has the word "MASTERWORKS" in the rim text at the bottom label, used by Columbia for a very short time, between c. December 1965 and c. January 1966.
I combine shipping for records to lower cost for the buyer.
