Cover MINT minus, very light corner bumps where shrink wrap has torn.  Vinyl un-played, SEALED at US distributor see description.
A Note on sealed import LPs: Import LPs outside of the United States were rarely sealed.  The U.S. distributor would seal the albums when they received them.  Our sealed import LPs were sealed at the distributors where we purchased them.  Some may have marks or stickers on the covers under the shrink wrap.  We guarantee these sealed import albums to be in mint to near mint condition and unplayed.  We have been selling import albums since the early 1970s, and currently have approximately 5000 our collection.  These have come directly from the distributor.  If you have questions about this album send us a message. See photos for more details or contact us if you have a question.

We specialize in hard to find vinyl, especially sealed un-played albums and imports.  All albums are shipped with bubble wrap in vinyl cardboard shipping boxes.

A bit of our history

In 1969 we set up shop in the back of a head shop in Rochester NY. Our inventory fit on a small folding card table. In 1971 we moved to Oakland CA and began buying and selling at the legendary Oakland flea market. A few years later we opened our first solo store in New Port Beach CA. By the 1978 we had moved to Oregon and operated 5 stores, most centered around the college town of Eugene.

In 1985 we sold our stores. But we kept enough vinyl and collectible items to fill a 42' semi truck. We had over 250,000 pieces many of which were kept in our "vault" and not accessible to the general public.  Our albums have been in storage since 1985!  Many rare hard to find pieces.   

Now after almost 45 years later (rpms around the earth) we are making available the remaining albums. Many of these are from the owner(s) personal collections.

5000 Sealed Import LPs
500 Sealed Domestic LPs
