Description
I'm a long-time audiophile and record collector thinning my substantial personal collection.
This is a very rare mono pressing of The Doors' first album. I have all the mono pressings of this album and in my opinion the Monarch has the best fidelity. This one also has the very rare "Oher" label misprint. These are hard to find in decent playable condition. This one is. Under bright light there are many fine scratches and scuffs resulting in audible, but not overpowering, surface noise which is most noticeable between songs and in the quieter passages, notably "End of the Night" and "The End." There are about 13 repetitive pops (not overly loud) during the Freudian interlude of "The End." I've personally play graded this record all the way through and rate it VG. The original inner sleeve is missing.
This record has been ultrasonically cleaned in TergiKleen solution and then rinsed and vacuumed twice with distilled water on a VPI 16.5 for your listening pleasure.
I've purchased many over-graded LPs on eBay and know just how frustrating that can be. If my records are priced a little higher than others it's because they're worth it in terms of time and aggravation so buy with confidence!
Your record will be shipped in a plastic outer sleeve in a real record mailer, not some cobbled together pieces of cardboard, so you can be sure it will arrive in the condition expected.
Ships via USPS Media Mail.
