Fantastic Baggys (Phil Sloan and Steve Barri): Tell 'Em I'm Surfin' Imperial LP 9270 MONO: VG+ (shrink wrap)/VG+
Vinyl is super clean VG+ condition and looks to have been rarely played! And sounds absolutely fantastic. The only flaws keeping it from Near Mint are very minor superficial scuffs and hairlines from taking the record out of its sleeve that will happen every single time one takes the record out from the sleeve! No deep scratches or even light scratches or scuffs. Just very minor marks. I played it last night and being this is a first pressing the sound is fresh from the master tapes so there is no degradation in sound as on later pressings. Most sellers would grade this as Near Mint. Black Imperial labels are in excellent condition with no spindle marks. Just some minor smudging.
Cover is very glossy with super nice gloss and still in original shrink wrap! The only flaws keeping cover from another grade higher is very minor fraying from shelf wear on the corners. Rear cover has some minor browing and light tan spots from age. No ring wear is detectable. Original paper inner sleeve is in fantastic condition with just a hint of browning/ageing.
Sound Quality: The MONO Mix is the way to go and blows away the tinny, echoey and lifeless stereo mix! All CD releases of this iconic album have been remixed in stereo and unfortunately, it is highly likely this LP will never be officially released in MONO!
This is a fantastic sounding mix and it sounds fantastic! You all know that the 60's, 70's and 80's vinyl pressings are the way to go and the recording, mastering, quality, and sound are FANTASTIC! You won't find this stuff anymore. Just take a listen for yourself like I did.
I am selling off my entire Pop, Rock and Roll, Jazz and Surf record collection that I have been collecting for over 40 years. If you're a record collector and audiophile, the cover condition is not the important part. It is the fact that the vinyl are in super clean VG+ (almost Near MINT) condition! Warm analog sound! Note that I have conservatively graded everything. In other words, if a record is graded VG+, it is more than likely closer to Near Mint.
Condition: I grade according to Goldmine standards. That means a VG+ vinyl will be just that, an LP that is in beautiful condtion! I am very picky when it comes to grading and grade to Goldmine standards. I absolutely hate it when dealers ameliorate the condition of the vinyl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially when I am the buyer!! All my Lp's have been stored in my house upright on a shelf in an air conditioned and dry environment, meaning no warping, staining or mildew!
Track Listing: Please see the photos! If you need more photos or a better description, please let me know and I will gladly describe it in detail for you.
Shipping: Shipping will be via USPS Media Mail $8 and will be mailed in a sturdy LP mailer.
