Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

 

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

 

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

Here are Willie's two best-selling albums. Both #1 Platinum sellers. Neither of these First Pressings have ever been played. "Always..." is a Promo. "Stardust" is not. The gold foil Promo stamp is upper back left. The single piece board covers have tight seams and show some storage wear. These are one-owners that the Seller got new from CBS Nashville and tower Records Sunset in 1978 and 1982. They have been in storage for 37 and 41 years respectively.
