Here we have Caldera - Sky Islands, a jazz funk album released in 1977 on the Capitol label.
The record has been ultrasonically cleaned in our amazing Degritter and the vinyl has come up spotless and very shiny with barely any marks. I have graded EX but this is conservative - it really looks and plays like a brand new record. The labels and spindle holes are clean apart from a mark on the Side 1 label where a sticker has been removed.
The record plays through exactly as it should with clean, crisp and bold sound. Plenty of space between the different instruments and a wide soundscape - an excellent mastering job!
The outer sleeve is showing slight wear to edges and corners and light ringwear but overall very clean and smooth with no writing, stains, tape or tears.
The original cardboard inner sleeve is present & in excellent condition.
An excellent copy in super clean condition ready to pop straight onto your turntable &enjoy!
We have taken lots of photos in good natural daylight so you can see exactly what you are buying. Please take a moment to look at the pictures as they form part of the description.
