ATTN: notes below were for previous listings



NOTES: THIS RECORD IS IN REMARKABLE ORIGINAL CONDITION AND REPRESENTS ONE OF 15 OR SOME TOP SHELF QUALITY ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING *** WILLIE NELSON **** AND EARLY WAYLON JENNINGS’ ALBUMS FROM THE SAME SMALL COLLECTION I ACQUIRED ON A RECENT RECORD BUYING DEEP AMERICA ROAD TRIP.
UNCOMMON IN THAT MOST IF NOT ALL THE RECORDS ARE IN NM STATE -some IN Excellent condition - most WITH ORIGINAL RCA PAPER SLEEVES — and some i STILL IN SHRINK,—
THESE ALBUMS BY JENNINGS AND WILLIE NELSON WERE PRESSED EARLY IN THEIR COUNTRY CAREERS ( 1967-1972) AND SEEM TO BE HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND IN THEIR ORIGINAL STATE.
IN ADDITION, AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS THAT THESE ARE THE LESS COMMON (((( STEREO )))) PRESSINGS BY RCA. *** THE MONO VERSION WAS MUCH MORE COMMON THAN A ‘true stereo channeled pressing’ — THAT IS, NOT ‘ ELECTRONICALLY ENHANCED TO STIMULATE STEREO’ - WHICH MOST OF US KNOW ARE INFERIOR.

* I DO COMBINE SHIPPING- so just wait for a REVISED INVOICE TO REFLECT YOUR $avings..


** REASONABLE ‘ BUY NOW’ who want this album now.. without later hassles - or missed/ ‘ forgot to bid’ scenarios….


I do clean records on professional grade VPI 16.5 record cleaner before shipping—


IMPORTANT NOTES


EACH RECORD SHIPS IN A NEW JAPANESE MADE ANTI- STATIC INNER SLEEVE, AND ALL RECORD COVERS SHIPPED IN —-AGAIN, A JAPANESE MADE — CRYSTAL CLEAR PROTECTIVE RESEALABLE SLEEVE.
SHIPPING NOTES: I USE THE STILL REASONABLE US MEDIA RATE:
Records shipped in a new sturdy record mailer box; Records shipped outside of their respective covers to minimize splitting the cover seams: I use cardboard record protective stiffeners that also minimize ANY movement during transit which is really important; I use nylon rip-stop gummed tape of all seams: a few big RED FRAGILE STAMPS FRONT / back.. shipping labels affixed proper/ professional shipping and selling of quality vinyl records since the ‘90s.
*** I SEND A IPHOTO OF YOUR PACKAGE JUST BEFORE SHIPPING THAT DAY VIA EBAY MAIL SO YOU ACTUALLY SEE WHAT YOUR RECORD BOX LOOKS LIKE. Tracking uploads that day.

***** I answer all questions and inquires))))
