Description

   For sale Gentle Giant's Octopus, released by Columbia in 1973. This record is an original first US pressing with an unusual die-cut cover. I bought this new, played it and immediately put it away in a new inner sleeve.  I always put all my records directly into a protective inner sleeve(s), thus preserving the integrity of the insert(s) and the original inner sleeve(s). The inner sleeve is Near Mint. The vinyl is Near Mint. The cover is Near Mint.  It's been played only on the best Audiophile equipment and still has a lot of life yet. This is one of the best copies of this album that I've ever seen or heard, and you would be hard pressed to find one in this condition, ever again. This would make a great addition to anyone's collection. I have more Gentle Giant albums and records of all genres listed in my Ebay store. Please take a look. They're all Near Mint. Thanks for looking at my listing.    I've been collecting records for about 50 years now and have always cleaned them and put them away carefully in plastic inner sleeves. Over the years I've used Dust Bugs, Disc Washers and have finally invested in a professional VPI record cleaning machine. Now that I'm retiring, I'm selling my very esoteric collection. I'm not a professional grader of records, but will use record guides, as well as my personal experiences as a basis of my grading all records. Since grading is subjective, I will be conservative. I offer discounts for multiple sales. Photos are of the actual item for sale, not a stock photo. Please review all descriptions and photos because I do not accept returns. Thank you for looking!
