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.


WILDLY RARE original Robert Ludwig mastered Specialty first pressing from 1989 on Sire with printed inner sleeve with complete lyrics!!!  LP side 1 is easily VG+, close to VG++, with a few light paper scuffs and side 2 is a beautiful VG++/NM-.  Cover is a beautiful VG++.
