 COMMENTS:
Vinyl is a strong EX to M-, but I tend to grade ultraconservatively. I am the original owner of this album, having bought it new (not used) at the time. I have handled it very carefully since the original purchase (even to the point of making a cassette copy to avoid repeated plays of the vinyl). Includes intact INSERT, free of bends or stains. Gatefold cover is in rather exceptional condition (having been kept in a plastic sleeve after purchase), and I have been careful not to overextend/crease the title spine. Also includes the yellow "THE MOTHERS" sticker that was affixed to the original shrinkwrap, which was subsequently taped (using "invisible" matte-style tape) to the outer surface of the plain white inner sleeve. Has MATRIX numbers MGS-1250-REV-F (side 1) and MGS-1251-REV-F (side 2). This is a record that I have prized for years, and which I still personally consider to be one of the 10 greatest records of all time, of any genre. I am starting it at a relatively high price to ease the pain of parting with it.

I usually endeavor to post an extensive description and history here (only because it's a lot of fun -- and I like letting you, the prospective buyer, know why I cared about this item in the first place...and how much I don't want to sell it now. However, the taxman continues to breathe down my neck and must be paid, so I'm "war listing" a bunch of items with this generic description. If no bid is placed before I can come back and fill it in with something more personal and entertaining in a "revision", then I shall. In the meantime, if you have any questions about this item, then please feel free to contact me via message/e-mail. Thanks for understanding (a quality that I have happily found to be most abundant among my fellow eBayers!).
