Here, for your consideration, we have a RARE vinyl copy of The Idiot, the essential solo debut album by Iggy Pop, an original US release from 1977 on the RCA Victor Records label, catalog # APL1-2275.

This is the very first pressing of this undisputed classic album produced by the late David Bowie, not a later reissue or bootleg.

Originally issued with no inserts, just a plain white inner sleeve.

No barcode on the rear cover.

CONDITION:

We do our best to grade conservatively, so that you are happy with your purchase.

Also, we try to specify any imperfections present on the disc, the label, and the sleeve (cover) of the LP.

Nevertheless, for an even better evaluation of the conditions of the item, please take a thorough look at the attached photos. They are part of the description and worth more than any words we could write.

All photos are of our actual items. We do not use found or stock photos; what you see is what you get.

If, after reading the whole description and examining the photos closely and attentively, you still have doubts or need further information (matrix/runout etchings, for instance) about the condition of the LP, please don't hesitate to contact us. As in life, clear and polite communication prevents a lot of problems.

 

RECORD: NM

Record is only visually graded, not play graded.

The record looks clean and beautiful, with no scratches, hardly any hairlines, and only a couple of very, very faint sleeve scuffs that are visible only under strong light. Remember, though, it is a used record, so there might be occasional clicks and pops, especially in quieter passages.

The record labels are awesome, with no writing, no wear, and no spindle marks. I bought this LP still sealed, opened it to take the shrink wrap off, but never, NEVER played it.

In view of the different record cleaning preferences of each person, we won’t clean or wash the record; we strongly recommend the buyer to make a good clean prior to playing the record.

 

SLEEVE: EX

The sleeve is very nice, with no writing, no tears, no splits, and only light shelf wear.

Some creases around the edges and spine on the front and rear cover.

Some rubbing spots on top and bottom edges, with some discoloration. They were already there when I bought the still sealed LP.

Corners dented/bent, with some rubbing also present.

Spine is fully readable, with no worth mentioning flaws.

In general, a stunning cover.

FEEDBACK

Due to the misbehaviours of some dishonest and disloyal buyers, positive feedback will be left ONLY AFTER we receive buyer's feedback.

VERY IMPORTANT: If you have ANY problems at all, please remember to contact us BEFORE you leave feedback and star ratings, so we get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one.

We will make our best to sort anything out for you, if you let us know you have a problem. This way no one has to leave negative/neutral feedback, and we both walk away happy!

By the mere act of bidding/buying, you understand and agree to give us AT LEAST ONE chance to work everything out to your full satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.

Thanks again!
