Description

What a great album ! Classic summer sounds.  First album from the Flat Duo Jets, released 1989 on Dog Gone Records. Includes 1-page band biography/press kit and a Dog Gone Records order form. (both pictured).
Vinyl in Excellent playing condition. It's a former radio station copy that was played moderately. Better than Very Good-plus but not quite noise-free enough to be considered Near-Mint or Mint. 
Vinyl Visual grade is barely Very Good-plus. The only real scratch is on outer edge, outside of where the music is, and doesn't affect play. There is a big scuff on both sides. One does not affect play at all, the other is minorly audible at beginning of "Man With the Golden Arm."
Album cover is Good-plus, one grade above worst. Cover is defaced with radio station's call letters. The station later discarded it when they switched to CD's. There is also a 2 and a-half inch split along bottom edge of album cover, a one-inch split on the spine, slight ringwear, and dabs of sticker residue at top left and bottom right.
All vinyl records are play-graded on a professional model Technics SL1200-MK2 turntable.
All photos are of actual item for sale.
**Please ignore the $5.80 and $2.98 shipping costs listed at the top of this page, and elsewhere.  eBay put them there, and I am unable to remove or revise them. Hopefully, I will soon be able to afford to ship items that cheaply, but I'm not able to do so yet. Correct shipping costs are as follows:

Two Shipping Choices:
1):  by Media Mail is $4.00 in padded bubble mailer reinforced with thick cardboard. 2): by Priority Mail, use the shipping calculator and enter your zip code. Item will be mailed in a padded Priority box.
If you live in the United States and buy more than one vinyl record from me within a 48-hour period, shipping for each additional record will be just $1 each. However, there is a Limit of Three 12-inch albums per package, to ensure safe shipping. Combined shipping is not available for international transactions.
DeanRadioMusic specializes in Rare, Original 1980's Indie-Rock, Punk, and Alternative music released on Vinyl, for those who prefer the sound of vinyl. Some of the records are radio station 'discards' that were rarely played. This means the vinyl itself will often be in Excellent playing condition, but the album covers may be worn, defaced and/or written on, and the labels on the records themselves may have been written on. Look for more '80s-era indie/punk/alternative vinyl listings to be posted in the weeks ahead.
Album Cover Grading Guide: SS
(STILL SEALED) Album is still in the factory-applied shrink-wrapping.
M
(MINT) Absolutely perfect; no corner dings, marks, tears, dents, impressions from the disc, or other flaws.
NM
(NEAR-MINT) Very minor signs of wear or cover impressions. Artwork is as close to perfection as possible.
EX
(EXCELLENT) Minor disc impression or slight corner creases, no wrinkles, puckers, seam splits or writing on the cover. Artwork is clean and unworn and there is no ink wear. VG+
(VERY GOOD PLUS) Cover is clean but may have minor writing or marks and may show slight wear. There may be just the start of ring wear, where the disc has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying. VG
(VERY GOOD) Covers are worn and used. Seams may be starting to split. There is moderate ringwear, but the artwork is still attractive. There may be yellowing or discoloration and there may be larger writing, labels, or marks. Corners may have damage or creases and there may be scratches or gouges that otherwise damage the artwork. G
(GOOD)  Seam splits, large marker writing, major seam splits, significant ring wear, damaged corners, tears, cuts, gouges, masking or duct tape seam repairs, or other flaws and damage.
