David Bowie has always been one of my favorite artists.  Granted, I have a lot of favorite artists.  But from his early Space Oddity days to his later Changes days, I always found him to be one of those dynamic and incredibly creative performers that always gave me something new to think about and enjoy.  This album is an outstanding example of his versatility and his talent.  It is generally regarded as one of his most significant and outstanding works.  It his included on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the greatest albums of all time.  This album was released on RCA in1976, number APL1-1327.  This is the original release of the album.  The vinyl is in exceptional condition with its bright original luster and only a few light surface scratches.  It plays with very light sporadic background noise.  The vinyl grades VG.  The album cover shows ring wear and corner and edge wear including a seven inch split on the open side of the top seam.  The bottom seam and spine are sharp, tight,  and intact.  In includes the original inner sleeve with track list.  There are initials written lightly on the front.  The cover grades VG.

Grading Information I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay.  I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible.  I will do both a visual check and an audio check.  I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can.  I don’t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive.   My promise is that I will never put up for auction any album that I would not be proud to play for others on my own turntable. 

I only use four grades in my grading:  NM, VG+, VG, and VG-.  The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition.  My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve.  The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or more small defects.  It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static.  On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album.   Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading.  Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there.  That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen.  In this case the vinyl will be graded VG.  Very occasionally I will grade an album VG-.  This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy. 

Shipping Information – Combined Shipping Shipping is $4.00 in the continental U.S.  I happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost.  In fact, I welcome it!  The $4.00 cost for U.S. shipping applies regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period. 

Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates.  Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. The first album will be shipped for $13.  Additional albums will be shipped for $2 per album, with up to five albums able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping.  At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost. 

The Canada cost determination also applies for all other International shipping, except that the first album is shipped for $19 and each subsequent is an additional $2.50. 

All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening.  The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve.  I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments.  If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day.  Payment by Paypal is preferred. 

Thanks for looking and please contact me with any questions.
