SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL INDEED...

A SIGNED/AUTOGRAPHED COPY OF (OBVIOUSLY) A FIRST PRESSING OF THE CLASSIC DEATH LP 'SPIRITUAL HEALING' BY THE LATE GODFATHER OF DEATH METAL – THE LEGENDARY CHUCK SCHULDINER (R.I.P.)

THIS IS A VERY RELUCTANT SALE, I HAD A NUMBER OF SIGNED ITEMS I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO MEET CHUCK TWICE, I HAVE SOLD MY OTHER SIGNED STUFF FOR PEANUTS IN THE PAST, AND IT BROKE MY HEART, I AM KEEPING ONE OTHER LP FOR MYSELF AND LETTING SOME LUCKY FAN ENJOY MY OTHER(S).

YOU MAY GET BETTER CONDITION COPIES OF THIS LP, SURE, BUT IT'S DOUBTFUL YOU'LL GET ONE WITH THE SIGNATURE OF A LEGEND WHO IS NO LONGER WITH US.

THE LP IS ALSO SIGNED BY THE 'HUMAN' DEATH MEMBERS (ASIDE FROM STEVE DIGORGIO) AND THOSE WHO TOURED THE UK WITH LOUDBLAST AND CARCASS IN 1992; PAUL MASVIDAL, SKOTT KARINO AND SEAN REINERT.

Death (USA) – Spiritual Healing LP.

Label: Under One Flag, FLAG38, UK.

Released: 1990.

VINYL: EX-/VG+*

OUTER COVER: VG+*

INNER SLEEVE: VG+*

** About condition, I try and adhere to the Goldmine/Record Collector standard of classification, but find it best to explain the exact condition of everything sold in detail, including any flaws.

I have to say, I probably Undersell my Vinyl in Terms of It's Quality – I'd Rather People Are Overjoyed When They Receive Their Item Than They Are Disappointed! I believe only Unplayed, (or Perhaps Played Once Only) Vinyls Deserve NM Grading – I would NEVER Grade any Vinyl as MINT, Ever. Not Mine, Not Yours - Maybe if They Pressed Records Out in The Vacuum of Outer Space, Perhaps Then!?

In the case of this copy of 'Death – Spiritual Healing' The Vinyl is in VG+ Condition, It's Been Played, A Lot, There are Micro Scratches which do Crackle At times, But No Major Scratches, Could Do With a Clean With a Velvet

The Outer Sleeve is in VG+ Condition, Almost Excellent

There's a couple of minor surface creases here and there and a small 5mm Spine Split that Has Started Then Stopped, the spine text is lovely and readable. If Held To The Light, Aside From The Signatures, Somebody Has Used The LP as A Backing Pad When Writing On Paper, There is the Faint outline of a Pen Dent, if This Makes Sense, I Am Not Sure if When This occurred, It Is Unnoticeable, Aside from the Fact You May Look More Carefully Because Of The Signatures.

The Inner Has Some Wear, it's VG+, Some tiny Specks of Whitespotting But Nothing Major At All.

As I Say, It's Still A Very Good Copy Of Spiritual, If You Want and Unsigned One, Then I'm Sure a Better Condition One Could Be Found, However, a Similar Condition Leprosy Sold On Ebay for £23 Recently. This Has The Signature of a Legend, So I expect Much More

I AM HAPPY TO SHIP OVERSEAS, THERE FOLLOWS BELOW A PRICE GUIDE, TOP ESTIMATE, TO TRACKABLE OVERSEAS SHIPPING PRICES. I AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE PROMPT EXACT PRICES FOR MULTIPLE BUYS ON REQUEST (MESSAGE ME) FOR SHIPPING OVERSEAS BY WEIGHING THE ITEMS YOU WANT TO BUY – THE PRICE GUIDE BELOW IS PRETTY ACCURATE THOUGH.

IN ALL CASES, UK AND OVERSEAS, I WILL COMBINE POSTAGE – AND MAKE POSTAGE DISCOUNTS OF COURSE. I SHIP AS SOON AS I'M PAID, SAME DAY OR NEXT DAY AT THE LATEST.

HOWEVER! IN THE CASE OF UK BIDDERS, TO PREVENT ARBITAGE BIDDING (CROWDING OUT SINGLE PURCHASE BIDDERS) A PREMIUM OF £1.25 WILL BE ADDED FOR EACH EXTRA LP.

POSTAGE COSTS ARE POSTAGE COSTS ONLY – AND CHECKABLE AGAINST THE ROYAL MAIL WEBSITE PRICELIST (see link below).

I DO NOT CHARGE FOR PACKING MATERIALS OR ANY OF THE OTHER DUBIOUS 'EXTRAS' SOME SELLERS MAY CHARGE FOR, SUCH AS THE ABSTRACT CONCEPT OF 'MY TIME'.

MY PARCELS ARE LEGENDARY IN THE UNDERGROUND METAL SCENE FOR THEIR INDESTRUCTABLE NATURE – THINK OF THE FILM 'IRON MAN' AND THIS WILL GIVE YOU AN IDEA, I REFUSE TO USE FLIMSY AND THIN CARD MAILERS AND THIS IS REFLECTED IN THE PARCEL WEIGHT – THE PACKAGING ALONE USUALLY COMES IN AT AROUND 300-350 GRAMS – THIS IS NOT EXCESSIVE IN MY OPINION, IT MEANS THE LP ARRIVES IN THE SAME CONDITION AS IT LEFT.

ALSO, NON-UK BUYERS, WHEN SHIPPING OVERSEAS IS REQUIRED – BECAUSE OF THE WEIGHT OF PACKING MATERIALS I'VE FOUND THAT OFTEN PARCELS CONTAINING THREE OR FIVE LPs ARE THE MOST ECONOMICAL. THE COST OF SHIPPING THREE LPs OFTEN WORKS OUT ALMOST AS CHEAPLY AS THE COST OF SHIPPING ONE LP. WITH THIS IN MIND, IF YOU HAVE INTEREST IN ANY ITEMS ENDING AT A LATER DATE, I AM HAPPY TO COMBINE PARCELS AND HAPPY TO WAIT UNTIL FURTHER OF MY AUCTIONS HAVE ENDED BEFORE SHIPPING IN ORDER TO MAKE MULTIPLE LP PARCELS.

HAPPY BIDDING – ANY QUESTIONS MESSAGE ME FOR A PROMPT REPLY.

THE OLD SCHOOL AND RARER ITEMS WILL NOW BE LISTED AT THE END OF THE MONTH/BEGINNING OF THE NEW MONTH ONLY.

MID-MONTH SALES WILL BE RESTRICTED TO LOWER PRICE ESTIMATE (BUT STILL EXCELLENT MUSICALLY) STUFF.

ONLY CHUCK SCHULDINER WAS REAL!
