·       JAMES BROWN – IT’S A MAN’S MAN’S MAN’S WORLD - ORIGINAL 1966 KING RECORDS STEREO LP 985

·       ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING

·    *** STILL SEALED ORIGINAL LP – 100% GUARANTEED ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING ***

·       BELIEVED TO BE PRESSED ON THE ORIGINAL BLUE KING LABEL WITH “CROWN” LOGO AND SILVER PRINT (NO OTHER KING PRESSINGS OR LABELS EXIST THAT WE ARE AWARE OF)

·       THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

·       THIS ALBUM CONTAINS THE ONLY KNOWN TRUE STEREO VERSION OF “BEWILDERED” IN EXISTENCE (ALL OTHER KNOWN VERSIONS ARE MONO); (THIS INFORMATION HAS BEEN PROVIDED COURTESY OF EBAY MEMBER: ► SOULTOWN_USA , HEREBY GRATEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGED)

·       ORIGINAL "TEXTURED" (RAISED) COVER WITH SILVER-SPRINKLED LETTERING.

·       NOTE: this delicate, frail, silver-sprinkled cover is EXTREMELY susceptible to wear and tear. Practically no copy we’ve ever seen was anywhere near mint or devoid of excessive ring wear. Most copies we’ve seen in the past 30 years had silver “sprinkles” smeared all over the place and totally ring-worn. To preserve this cover in a truly immaculate condition, the original owner had to be have been very smart and KEEP the original, protective shrink wrap intact (OR, AS IN THIS CASE, KEEP IT SEALED!). We are very thankful for the original owner of this album for wisely doing just that: for keeping the record sealed since 1966 , thus beautifully shielding and protecting the delicate cover from the harmful impact of the elements (such as partying, booze and other, er… funky activities) over the decades.

·       THICK CARDBOARD COVER, AMERICAN STYLE.

·       THIS IS A MONO COVER WITH A NIFTY, OVAL “STEREO” STICKER AFFIXED. WE DO NOT RECALL EVER SEEING CUSTOM STEREO COVERS FOR THIS TITLE, ALTHOUGH IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THEY DO, IN FACT, EXIST.

·       THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID)

(b)            The record is apparently pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)             Stereo pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more preferable to its mono counterpart. The mix is more graphic, the sound resolution more precise, and the channel separation (which does not exist on mono version) adds a whole new dimension to the music. Also, the stereo mixes are (by definition) somewhat different than on the mono version. We estimate that mono copies of this album outnumber stereo copies by a ratio of at least 2:1.

(d)            Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
