The Mamas & The Papas released their compilation album "16 Of Their Greatest Hits" in 1969 on Dunhill / ABC Records. It includes all of their biggest hits including "Monday, Monday," "Dream A Little Dream Of Me," "I Saw Her Again Last Night," and "California Dreamin.'"
I believe this 50-year-old copy of (DS-50064) is from a 1971 repressing and it is in excellent condition. It still has its original Factory Shrink Wrap largely attached and is easily VG+. Please see the pictures. The disc test plays cleanly and is also VG+ which is as high as I go on vintage vinyl. This copy lacks clear markings on where it was pressed. The Side One dead wax is etched DS-50064 A M7.
In addition to its original packaging, this album will come with a high quality Anti-Static Round Bottom Inner Sleeve to hold the vinyl disc and a sturdy 3 mil. polyethylene Archival Quality Outer Sleeve.
Free shipping is included in the special corrugated album mailer seen in the last picture.
This vintage 12" vinyl album has been sitting upright on a shelf in climate controlled storage for the past 50 years. It has not been played in decades other than a quick test spin for this sale which found no skips or obvious flaws. Like all used records it should be cleaned and wiped with an anti-static brush to minimize the occasional pops that are part of playing vinyl albums. Buyers should note that this is a well-cared for but used record and it will have some minor imperfections.
