Bruce Springsteen THE RISING  NM 12" Vinyl 2 Record Set 2002 LP Album 
  Offered here is the very rare two record release on vinyl of Bruce Springsteen's 2002 release "The Rising".  I purchased this at Tower Records back in 2002, it has only been played a few times on a Music Hall MMF-7 turntable.  The record is in outstanding condition, for the most part it looks like I just took the shrinkwrap off.  The sleeve is near perfect but for a slight lower left corner bump that it likely came with (See Photo Below).  The vinyl is clean and plays quietly, I've just played it prior to this listing to insure an accurate description.  The records do show some inner sleeve abrasions, not surprising as the records fit a bit too snugly in their original printed paper inner sleeves. There is one arced abrasion on Side 4 that looks like a scratch but isn't.  If held under direct light it vanishes, please see the photo I've provided below.  I'll post the records in two new plain white round corner paper sleeves so the Buyer doesn't have to struggle with removing the records.
This album was mastered by the great Robert Ludwig, here credited as Bob Ludwig on the inner sleeve credits.  LIke all of Ludwig's work, this rendition of "The Rising" has great sound.  Though Ludwig also mastered the CD release a quick comparison reveals it easily bested by this vinyl pressing.  Fans of "The Boss" will really enjoy having this fine album on vinyl the way it was meant to be heard.
