Up for sale is the 2017 RSD reissue of Harry Nilsson's stellar 1971 album Nilsson Schmilsson. If there is any album to start getting into Harry's catalog, I would recommend both this and the follow up, Son of Schmilsson. Plenty of memorable songs adorn this album, but if I had to list my personal favorites, they would include: Driving Along, Without You, Let The Good Times Roll, and Jump Into the Fire. Overall, it is a hugely fun album and what better way to show it off than to press it on some silly "Banana Split" wax?

Included in this listing is the poster, which has never been framed or displayed. I have taken it out of the jacket only a few times including to provide photos. Also included is the digital download card which is expired, but for the sake of completionism is still provided.
Record will be shipped with a Record Mailer, included with an outer sleeve! All opened records will be placed outside of the jacket (with inner sleeve shown in the photos!) to prevent seam splits!

Now onto the main description...!

Please take a careful look at the provided photos before making your purchase!
I will try to describe the item to the best of my abilities, please note that I am only human (not a machine, nor coconut) and might make mild mistakes in my descriptions. I do NOT put any solid grades on my records visually or sound-wise, if it can be helped, it will be play tested on my turntable and described to the best of my abilities! Visual grading alone is NOT a stand-in for sound quality.
Tested on a Fluance RT-82 with an Ortofon OM10 Stylus, with Klipsch Reference Speakers.
Contents:
Jacket: Barely handled, still inside it's shrink with the attached hype sticker.
Poster: Poster has only been taken out of the jacket about three times. Once when newly purchased, another to see, and lastly to provide eBay photos. It has never been fully unfolded, uncreased, or displayed in any manner.
Labels: Clean and legible labels.

Vinyl:
Side One: Minimum to bare surface noise, very light pops far and few between. Most of the perceived noise seems to occur on Track 3.
Side Two: Minimum to bare surface noise, much like the previous side has some very light occasional pops on some tracks.
Overall: An excellent copy of an excellent reissue. Much of the surface noise or pops are audible but very minuscule in comparison to the music. This has been Spin Cleaned before, but the newer owner may desire to clean it again.

All prospective buyers and vinyl enthusiasts... Keep in mind:

- Be aware of your own setup and know just how well your own collection plays! -Some setups handle certain records better than others! Not all styli, turntables, speakers are the same!
-Cheaper turntables may not handle certain records well, resulting in unwanted skips!
-Sometimes cleaning up a record or replacing/changing your stylus helps with playback!
Please consider these factors before making your purchase! This item is sold as-is! No returns.

Thank you for looking!
