This auction is for a 1968 Capitol Records gatefold pressing of The Band's "Music From Big Pink" LP on vinyl record (SKAO 2955). I did a lot of research on this one: This is the Scranton, PA label variant (Rainbow Label). The Matrix is: SKAO-1-2955-W6 and W7 [IAM logo]. The painting used on the cover was painted by none other than Bob Dylan. The album features Garth Hudson, the late Levon Helm, Richard Manuel, Rick Danko and Robbie Robertson. The full tracklisting is listed below the description.
Album: VG+/EX (If there was a category between VG+ and EX, this would be it! There are few hairlines on Side A, and some slight sleeve scuffing on both sides, but for an album this age, it's extremely shiny and clean! I also play-tested the album, and it's extremely clean! I made sure to document the vinyl in the photos.)
Jacket: VG+/EX (If there was a category between VG+ and EX, this would be it! Given its age, the cover is in fantastic shape. The outer gatefold has the "paste on" cover. There are a few tiny nicks and bends, but they are minimal. The inner gatefold looks fantastic. There are a few tiny nicks on the spine, but everything is legible, including the "stereophonic"tag. Once again, everything is documented in the photos.)
I consider myself a very conservative (and quite frankly, kinda picky) grader when it comes to the quality of an album (but I am *not* a professional), so feel free to ask me any questions, and I'll be happy to send you any extra photos, or answer any questions you might have regarding the albums.
I make sure to ship the albums with care, including a thick cardboard vinyl mailer and bubble wrap to protect the record during shipment. I will gladly combine shipping for multiple auctions / purchases.
Please note: shipping costs posted
are for US customers only, and I will only ship overseas using eBay's global shipping program.
