Gordon Lightfoot Vinyl LP "Sundown" White Label Promotional Copy. 1974. This is my personal promotional copy of this LP from Reprise in 1974. I've had it for nearly 50 years and it's time to find it a new home. It's obviously a first pressing. I have never had this album on a turntable that I can remember. I would call the vinyl excellent but it might be NM. I am not an authority on grading and have listed the grading scale below. The cover is worn from storage and handling. My albums have gone through numerous moves but have always been cared for. There is a small corner spine tear on the bottom left cover. The sleeve is original. Again, the vinyl appears excellent or near mint to me you be the judge. The photos tell a better story than I can.

Questions? Let me know and I'll answer ASAP. Thanks for looking.

Vinyl Grading System from Tom Fisher, Rat Records.

Mint (M) – Absolutely perfect in every way. Never been played and usually sealed.

Near Mint (NM) – The record has been on a shelf between other records. The vinyl looks glossy and clearly has only been played a few times. There are no marks on the vinyl and the whole package is complete.

Excellent (E) – Same but I’d tolerate very light marks where the vinyl has been in and out of the inner sleeve a few times, or tiny signs of use generally.

Very Good Plus (VG+) – A few further faults are acceptable, but nothing that really compromises the record visually or audibly. A little rub, light inaudible marks, a little background crackle.

Very Good (VG) – It’s seen a bit of life, but is still usable. Light pops and clicks, an edge split, light visible scratches. You can still listen to it and enjoy looking at it, but it is visually and audibly USED.

Good (G) – To be honest you’re making trouble for yourself here, as Good means Bad. I’d only be selling something really desirable in this condition, with a bargain price and a full, no holds barred description to match.

Poor (P), Fair (F) Attempting to listen will be a disturbing experience. Expect major noise issues, skipping or repeating. The record itself is cracked, badly warped and has deep scratches. The cover is also approaching death.
