Description

I always get excited to find this one, but it's usually in rough condition. NOT THIS TIME!
This was obtained from a lifetime collection of over 10,000 lp's. The previous owner took immaculate care of them and I often wonder if he ever listened to them.
The lp is visually graded as VG++ or Excellent! Shiny and gloss and appears to have little to no use. Very light surface marks in a few spots probably from the inner sleeve.
Random Buddah Records black inner sleeve included.
Outer gatefold sleeve is AMAZING!! Graded VG++ as well for its ever so light surface wear. Tight gatefold has not been opened much. It's beautiful.
We use Goldmine's grading scale for reference as follows:

VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) or EXCELLENT (E)

A good description of a VG+ record is “except for a couple minor things, this would be Near Mint.” Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if it toward the high end of the grade (sometimes called VG++ or E+).

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint.

It's a 1974 pressing using the following matching info from Discogs: Label variation (see images).

Recorded at Curtom Studios, Chicago, Illinois.
