Description
Up for sale is an authentic, original 1980 US Capitol Records pressing of Minnie Riperton’s absolute masterpiece, "Adventures in Paradise."

Crucially, this copy includes its original beautifully illustrated custom inner picture sleeve, which is frequently missing from these 1980 budget-series runs.
Features the massive soul classic and legendary hip-hop sample track, "Inside My Love."

--- DETAILED CONDITION GRADING (Goldmine Standard) ---
• VINYL CONDITION: Very Good Plus (VG+)
The vinyl disc is incredibly clean and retains its brilliant original glossy mirror sheen. Under close light inspection, it shows only a couple of minor, faint paper scuffs that do not affect playback. Play-tested and handles her high vocal registers with gorgeous, crisp fidelity. Negligible background surface noise. No skips, repeat loops, or ticks.
• JACKET CONDITION: Very Good Plus (VG+)
The original outer jacket is solid, vibrant, and clean. The rich blue cover art remains bold with minimal ring or edge wear from careful storage. Spine is completely firm and legible. No seam splits, writing, or promo punch holes.
• INNER SLEEVE: Includes the original illustrated picture inner sleeve in solid condition.
