KISS Alive II w/ TATTOOS, Inner Sleeves (1977, US)
KISS Alive II with TATTOO sheet and both inner sleeves.
The tattoos have a fold along the bottom.
The cover has some wear and light creasing, there is a seam split all along the second flap. The gatefold appears to be a little bit faded. There is a bit of reside on the back cover and a white mark on the second S on the KISS logo on the front.
Both inner sleeves have some creasing, but no splits.
PLAY TESTED BEFORE LISTING! NO SKIPS ON MY RECORD PLAYER. I played this sucker loud!
Both records have their share of scratches and scuffs. Generally solid copy, with some audible ticks and pops. Groove wear notable on a few songs. I would grade each side as such...
Record 1 Side A : Strong VG! One tick on "King Of The Nighttime World", a lot of noise directly at the start before the music begins. Otherwise kicks total ass!
Record 1 Side B : VG. Groove wear on "Christine Sixteen" with some distortion in areas. Surface noise only heard during areas with no drums and vocals. A tick on "Tomorrow and Tonight".
Record 2 Side C : VG-. Both "Beth" and "God of Thunder" have notable groove wear. Some distortion on "Beth" and surface noise audible on "God of Thunder". The other three songs sound killer, surface noise drowned out by full force Rock 'n Roll and crowd noise.
Record 2 Side D : VG-. Surface noise throughout first three songs. Not overpowering, but audible. A single squeak on "Rockin' In The USA". A single pop on "Larger Than Life". Last two songs sound incredible and clean.
