A note on condition...

I’m not a pro or a record store owner, but I have been collecting for a long time and have done my best to describe the condition.

Condition: 

Record: This album was not play-tested, only visually graded as I am listing over 10,000 albums and cannot do every one. 

I would say EXCELLENT to NEAR MINT as there are no noticeable surface scratches, marks or defects. I do not believe I played this album very much as I listened to alot of cassettes back then.

Jacket: VERY GOOD to EXCELLENT. Light surface scratching from storage. Minimal ring wear on back and/or front. No splits of any kind - extremely minor edgewear.

Sleeve: Graphics Photos Lyrics Type

All in all, this is a great LP -- described and graded visually -- at a remarkable starting price.

Again, please remember that I am not an expert but I try to grade very fairly.  I visually grade all records. Please keep in mind that some of these records/vinyl are pre-owned and over 30 or 40 years old.  Some may have some slight surface noise and/or a crackle and/or other imperfections and will NOT sound like a “new” record, unless listed as mint/unopened.
