The name written at the top left is Bud Scoppa a well known Rock Journalist
Scoppa's career has also included jobs with Mercury Records and A&M Records and he has also
served as the Vice President of A&R at Sire Records. As Sire was part of WB I would assume that is why
his name is on the cover. It may be his words under the picture & perhaps he was the artist.

Grading NM Near Mint. Record and cover appear virtually unmarked. Cover still in shrink.
VG++ A hair under near mint may have only a couple of insignificant surface only lines that should cause
only very minimal sound defects. Cover out of shrink otherwise close to perfect
VG+ Used but not abused. Some surface lines. Will have some relatively slight audible imperfections.
Some normal cover wear.
VG… There will be visual imperfections and some audible ones . May be a number of surface only lines or there
might be a small scratch but not one that repeats, Cover will be worn or have some kind of defect.
In this condition flaws will be pictured or noted.
VG- .. Usually the lowest rating I will list an LP at. Same as VG but defects are more pronounced. May have more than 1 scratch but still not one that repeats. This record will still be enjoyable but there will almost definitely be background sound. I have sold many rare 78s and older acetates at this grade and buyers have almost always been quite pleased. , In this condition flaws will be pictured or noted.100% ACCURACY IN GRADING RECORDS IS A JOB FOR SUPERMAN!
At times defects will show up differently on different players. For instance,
depending on the weight that a tone arm is set at or the quality of the stylus
what is just a pop on one player can sometimes be a skip on another.SO
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, BEFORE RATING ME ,
Because although I may not be Superman, I'm certainly not Lex Luther.
