FOR PERSONAL REASONS, I AM LOWERING THE PRICES ON ALL MY VINYL AND AUCTIONS - MANY FAR BELOW COMPETITIVE.  MAKES FOR SOME RARE ITEMS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AT LOW PRICES - THE BEST OF ALL WORLDS FOR COLLECTORS.
THIS ONE NEEDS NO EXPLANATION - IT IS SIMPLY A SOUGHT-AFTER 1976 EDITION OF "JACO PASTORIUS - SELF-TITLED" LP PRODUCED BY EPIC AND NUMBERED PE-33949.  
FANS KNOW HOW GREAT THE HYBRID SOUNDS OF THE JAZZ-FUSION-SOUL ARE, AND, AS SUCH, IS PASTORIUS' BEST SELLING LP.
APPEARING ON THE RECORD ALONG WITH JACO IS THE INFAMOUS HERBIE HANCOCK AND WAYNE SHORTER.  NEED I SAY MORE ABOUT THAT?  
THE ALBUM COVER IS EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT WITH ONLY A VERY SMALL HINT OF SOME VERY MINOR RING WEAR (YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR IT TO EVEN SEE IT).  NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE- NO SEAM RIPS-NO TEARS- NO STAINS, ETC.  OVERALL GRADING - CLOSE TO NEAR MINT!
WHEN TEST PLAYED, THE VINYL PERFORMED EXCELLENTLY WITH A VERY RARE OCCASIONAL LOW-GRADE "POP" WHICH BLENDED INTO THE BEAT OF THE MUSIC. I CAN'T  EVEN BE SURE THEY EXIST SINCE THEY ARE SO LOW-GRADE AND BLENDE IN SO WELL, BUT THOUGHT IT BEST TO MENTION. I CAN ASSURE YOU THEY DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE FANTASTIC MUSIC IN ANY WAY.  IF SO, I WOULD SAY SO.    I CAN NOT SEE HOW THIS LP ALBUM COULD DISAPPOINT ANY PASTORIUS FAN OR ANY RECORD COLLECTOR LOOKING FOR GREAT MUSIC IN AN EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT ALBUM. THIS LP IN SUCH  WELL-PRESERVED CONDITION IS TRULY BECOMING A RARITY.
PLUS, THE GREAT MUSIC ONLY BECOMES BETTER WITH TIME - JUST LIKE A GOOD WINE!!!!

THIS IS A MUSICAL AND AUDIO COLLECTIBLE FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR THE PROVEN HIGH QUALITY AND VALUABLE ENTERTAINING VINTAGE LP ISSUES FROM THE PAST. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED IN THE CONDITION OF THE PACKAGE AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS AND DESCRIBED ABOVE.

THOSE REFLECTIONS IN THE SHINY VINYL YOU MAY SEE ARE OF A CHANDELIER I HAVE HANGING OVER THE TABLE WHERE I TAKE MY PHOTOS.  DEFININTELY NOT ON THE ACTUAL VINYL.     

I AM ALWAYS HAPPY TO SHOW JUST HOW NICE THE CONDITION IS OF ALL MY RECORD ALBUMS AND VINYL.  AS SUCH, I HAVE POSTED AS MANY PHOTOS AS I COULD THAT ARE INDICATIVE OF THE ALBUM COVERS, LABELS (WHEN LP IS OPENED), THE VINYL (WHEN LP IS OPENED), ETC. YOU CAN SEE THE EXCELLENT CONDITION OF THE ENTIRE PACKAGE AS IT EXISTS. 

I BELIEVE I POST MORE PHOTOS OF EACH ITEM IN EVERY AUCTION THAN MOST SELLERS SO THE BUYER CAN SEE THE HIGH QUALITY THEY ARE BUYING.

THIS COPY SHIPS FROM THE U.S.A. - NOT FROM OVERSEAS WHICH SAVES A BUNCH OF SHIPPING COSTS AND POTENTIAL DAMAGE.  HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO RETURN AN LP RECEIVED FROM OVERSEAS??  I HAVE, AND IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.

WILL CAREFULLY BE SHIPPED IN A BOX ESPECIALLY DESIGNED TO TRANSPORT THESE RARE AND UNUSUAL (VINTAGE) VINYL LP RECORDS.
