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 Elektra red label Columbia House gatefold pressing from 197? with NO barcode, embossed front cover and club text at the bottom on the rear cover to the right of the Elektra logo!!!  Release year is unclear as there is not a single entry for this pressing anywhere in the massive, sprawling Discogs database whatsoever.  I have had well over 50 copies of this LP pass through my hands in my 40+ years of collecting and I have never seen this pressing before.  Rare as hens teeth.  LP is VG with a scratch on tracks 2 & 3 on side 1 that can be felt and cover is VG/VG+ with a few small spots at the bottom on the rear only.  


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
