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 1974 private pressing of this jazz-funk gem from Chicago on the tiny Future label, who managed a grand total of one LP (you guessed it, this one) in their nanosecond of a lifespan!!! LP side 1 is VG with a tiny scratch on Directions that can be lightly felt and side 2 is VG+ with a few light paper scuffs. Cover is VG/VG- with a 6" piece of thin transparent tape at the top and a label on the front. To the best of my knowledge this LP has NEVER seen a reissue so don't sleep.
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
