ATTENTION THE DOORS,CLASSIC ROCK COLLECTORS AND CONDITION UPGRADERS.  HERE IS A 1978 GERMAN ISSUE OF THE ALBUM:"AN AMERICAN PRAYER" HARD TO FIND IN THIS OUTSTANDING CONDITION.  INCLUDES THE USUALLY MISSING PHOTOS INNER SLEEVE THAT IS VERY CLEAN! 

WHAT IS AMAZING ABOUT THIS COPY IS THAT IT HAS  ONLY HAD TWO-THREE PLAYS AT THE VERY MOST SINCE BOUGHT BRAND NEW,APPROX 36 YEARS AGO UNLIKE MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE!

THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS IN THE ARMED FORCES AND BOUGHT LPs IN VARIOUS COUNTRIES,ONLY PLAYING THEM ONCE OR TWICE TO TAPE WHEN BACK HOME IN THE UK,TAKING THE TAPES WITH HIM AROUND THE WORLD LEAVING THE LPs STORED SAFELY IN THE UK AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT-UNTOUCHED AND UNPLAYED UNTIL MY ONE PLAY CHECK TO ENSURE NO FAULTS HENCE THE MAXIMUM 3 PLAYS! THIS IS A GENUINE UPGRADER  LP SO NEAR TO MINT AS POSSIBLE!

THE LP IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH GLEAMING SURFACES! NO SURFACE MARKS!.     I STRUGGLED TO HEAR ANY SURFACE NOISE! THIS COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OWN SUCH A FANTASTIC RECORD! IDEAL IF YOU OFTEN GET OUTBID ON COPIES ELSEWHERE WHICH IN MANY CASES ARE NOT AS GOOD AS STATED WITH THE TRUTH HIDDEN WITHIN SMALLER PRINT AND WITH DUBIOUS BIDDERS.

THE MAJORITY OF COPIES SOLD OF THIS LP WERE PLAYED ON PORTABLE PLAYERS OR OLD HEAVY EQUIPMENT WITH BASIC AND CLUMSY HANDLING RESULTING IN MAJOR GROOVE WEAR!

 MANY BUYERS UNAWARE OF THE NEED TO CHANGE THE STYLI ON A REGULAR BASIS!!!!      

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN UPGRADER COPY OF THIS LP THEN THIS COULD BE FOR YOU! HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL PHOTOS INNER SLEEVE.

  THE GATEFOLD COVER HAS NO  WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS. JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA TINY EDGE CREASES AND A LITTLE MILD STAINING INSIDE. EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS.

A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH NO ANNOYING RESERVE. 

£4-50 POSTAGE INCLUDING SIGNED FOR DELIVERY TO THE UK. EUROPE £7 REST OF THE WORLD £10. 

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.

A DOORS COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A  BRILLIANT  LP LIKE THIS IN THIS CONDITION!

PLEASE LOOK AT  THE PHOTOS OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABEL AND THE COVER!

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE  LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE BUYER IN THE 1970s. AN LP WAS USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

THOSE THAT DID WERE OFTEN SCARED OF HAVING THEM STOLEN OR BORROWED WITHOUT RETURN AND WOULD WRITE NAMES ON THE COVER-JUST COMPARE WITH ANY OTHER SIMILAR LPs ON EBAY.THE MAJORITY HAVE WRITING,SELLOTAPE REPAIR OR WORSE STILL DRAWINGS AND DOODLES ADDED.THIS IS ABOUT THE BEST COPY I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS AND YEARS.

CHECK OUT YOURS IF YOU HAVE ONE-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE  YOU HAVE GOT AND WILL YOU REGRET IT LATER?

IF NOTHING ELSE THIS IS A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

I AM SURE TO REGRET NOT KEEPING IT BUT THAT'S LIFE! THE HOUSE IS FULL AS IT IS! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THESE ARE GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

A VERY NICE PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS LP IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER ,EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

The mixes are Superb,Rich,warm and full of bass, with a natural warmth!

In the 1970s, many were still using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear THE DOORS and always will be!  

GREAT SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER LP-EXAMINE YOURS IF YOU HAVE ONE AT ALL AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!  

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY ALL OF THE PHOTOS! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!

 DON'T LEAVE IT AND REGRET IT LATER!!!!!!!!!!!THIS MAY NOT BE REPEATED FOR A LONG TIME! 

THIS IS A GREAT CHANCE TO OWN A SUPER LP. A GREAT INVESTMENT!
