PLEASE NOTE: I WILL
ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER
BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER). OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS
(NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.
ULTRA RARE Motown non-gatefold pressing from 198?/199? with MCA credit in the lower label rim text and original printed inner sleeves!!! Release year is unclear as I have never seen this variant before in all my 40+ years of collecting and there is not a single entry for this pressing anywhere in the massive, sprawling Discogs database whatsoever. MCA bought Motown in 1988 so it's most likely from the very late 80s-early 90s. Whenever it was released, not many were pressed. Rare as hell. LPs are a beautiful near mint minus and cover is still in the original shrink wrap. Sealed is the only way you will find a nicer copy of this rarity. You will not be disappointed.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING:
MINT (SEALED)
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE
VG+: AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG: STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR: FILLER COPY ONLY. LOTS OF SCRATCHES
