Warning! Please read:

Any and all bidders! Records are an impulse buy. I do my best to grade accordingly, and with that being said; my NM might be your VG+, which makes record grading subjective. By bidding on this item, you as the bidder/potential buyer are accepting that possibility. You are also accepting that I will not discount a record once received because you believe it to be graded wrong. I do not accept returns unless you file a case with Ebay. Too many buyers in the past have looked for anything and everything to acquire a discount. This will not be tolerated. In bidding, you have accepted my terms. Thank you.

Vinyl: VG, the paper sleeve got bent over inside the cover and left marks on the vinyl. It plays thru fine without any crazy noise. Average scuffing throughout, just shy of VG+. Some or most of the flaws I believe could be removed with the “wood glue” cleaning method that can be found on YouTube.

Cover: VG, has the typical and ridiculously large top left corner cut. Light ring wear on the front cover. Back cover looks much nicer. There is a cover bump on the front right, looks like the cover got dropped at some point. Not too noticeable in my opinion. No splits and completely legible spine.

Labels: NM

As always, it will be professionally cleaned, and packaged in new anti static inner sleeve, and quality outer sleeve.

I ship media mail, but I am flexible, just let me know what you want.

If you want extra insurance, it will be at your cost.

Just communicate with me, and I’ll ship as you like.

USA buyers only, too many issues sending overseas.

A brief history of the band and it's release:

Cleveland acid rock combo the Damnation of Adam Blessing was formed in 1968 from the ashes of a pair of local garage bands, the Society and Dust; led by front man Adam Blessing (Bill Constable), the group also included guitarists Jim Quinn and Bob Kalamasz, bassist Ray Benich, and drummer Bill Schwark. After months of relentless local gigging -- often as the opener for hometown heroes the James Gang -- the Damnation of Adam Blessing signed to United Artists and issued their self-titled debut LP in 1969, followed by a tour in support of the Faces. Second Damnation followed a year later, generating the minor hit "Back to the River"; with their third album, 1971's Which Is Justice, Which Is the Thief, Schwark was replaced by Blessing's drummer brother Ken Constable. In 1973, the group renamed itself Glory, releasing a self-titled LP on the UA subsidiary Avalanche before disbanding.
