Description
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 2 MIL poly inner sleeve.
I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.
New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played. I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.
- This is a First Pressing of the original 1980 release.
- It was on the Slash label before they made a distribution deal with Warner Bros. Records. So, that's why this copy is a rare, long Out-Of-Print (OOP) version.
- There is one spindle mark on one side. The playing surfaces are clean. Appears to have been played once or twice.
- The single piece board cover has tight seams and shows some storage edge wear.
- The semi-gloss inner sleeve has lyrics and a band photo. I have included a soft poly inner sleeve.
- This is one-owner that the Seller got new in 1980 at Tower Sunset. It has been in storage for 40 years.
