The Doobie Brothers released their eighth studio album "Minute By Minute" in December 1978 on Warner Bros. Records. Boosted by the No. 1 and Grammy Award winning single "What A Fool Believes" the album spent 87 weeks on the charts. It was their first album without original lead vocalist Tom Johnston who was replaced by Michael McDonald as they carved out a new musical direction. It was also the last album with guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and original drummer John Hartman. 
This is copy of (BSK 3193) that is in excellent condition. The cover still has its original Factory Shrink Wrap and is in Near-Mint condition as is the card stock Inner Sleeve with lyrics on one side and a roach on the other.  Please see the pictures. The disc Test Plays cleanly and is easily VG+ which is as high as I go on vintage vinyl. It was engineered by Donn Landee and this copy was pressed at the Capitol Records plant in Winchester, Virginia. The Side One dead wax is etched BSK-1-3193 RE-1 WW1 #7 -----◄. 
This album will come with a high quality Round Bottom Inner Sleeve and a protective polyethylene Outer Sleeve. It will ship securely in the special Album Mailer seen in the last picture. Buyers should note this is a well cared for but used record and it may have some minor imperfections.
