Description


This is a sale for the following LP vinyl record:

Artist: Jimi Hendrix


Title: The Cry Of Love


Year: 1971


Cat # Reprise/Warner - MS 2034 (Stereo)


Vinyl Condition: MINT


Cover Condition: NM



Comments: Stone cold mint copy of this Hendrix classic! Record is fully sealed in original shrink wrap. Comes complete with original hype sticker and price tag. This record states "1970" on the spine and back cover. However, the record was not officially released until March 1971. All tracks were recorded between March 1968 - August 1970. This is the first studio album released after his death in September 1970. A first pressing of this LP can be easily observed by the Warner office address on the spine. Before 1976, the address for Warner offices was 4000 Warner Blvd. After 1976, the address changed to 3300 Warner Blvd. This record clearly has the 4000 address. Not to be confused with later pressings.
    Being a 47 year old LP, there are bound to be a few blemishes.  I use this term lightly, as this is a mint copy as far as my gratings are concerned. The lower left corner has a very minuet indent. I will stress the word minuet!! Also, there is a hint of mildew under the plastic in a few spots. The mildew also is minuet and if opened, will easily wipe away. This is common for a sealed record of this age. Authentic copies have what is called a "breath hole" in the plastic, sometimes several. This copy has one small breath hole on the front. These holes are placed for several reasons. One is so the record inside will not prematurely warp from overheating. Like anything else, there is a potential for problems and mildew is one of them. However, once again, I will stress the word minuet! This is a very clean copy!  I try to let buyers know what they are getting with no surprises.  Any questions, feel free to ask! :)

**** NOTE TO BUYERS****

I use the Goldmine record grading system, which is detailed below. Cover's and vinyl are graded separately and may not fall into the same category. If you would like more info about a particular title, please ask. I check Ebay often and will try to get back to you promptly.


M (MINT) - Album is brand new, sealed, and unplayed.

NM (NEAR MINT) - Vinyl looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. LP cover may have some light rub marks.

VG+ (VERY GOOD PLUS) -  Vinyl may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. Sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned corners, or a slight seam split. Also may have slight signs of wear also may be marred by a cut out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at discount.

VG (VERY GOOD) - Vinyl has light wear, scratches or scuffs. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, or small seam splits.

G (GOOD) - Vinyl has moderate, ever wear throughout, but still playable. Surface noise and scratches. A cover or sleeve will has large seam splits. especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the cover.

P (POOR) - Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable. The sleeve is water damages, split on all three seams or heavily marred by wear and writing.
