Description

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.


CRAZY RARE original first pressing of this forever slept-on sampladelic cult psych/funk/prog/glam gem from 1974 on Mercury's red label with seven logos in the upper rim text, Philips/Mercury/Vertigo logos at the bottom, Earth Baby logo to the left of the center hole and original black & white printed inner sleeve with complete lyrics!!!  LP is a beautiful near mint minus.  Cover has a small promo hole in the top right hand corner and is still in the original shrink wrap(!).  Comes with an original newspaper clipping, presumably from 1974, with not one, but two glowing reviews of the LP and single reviews for Truivirat's Illusions On A Double Dimple, Henry Cow's Unrest and Focus' Hamburger Concerto on the reverse!  Even has the original $2.00 Recycled Records (R.I.P.) price sticker in the top right hand corner on the front from when I purchased this rarity at their store in Jefferson Park here in Chicago in the early 1980s.  A high grade copy with impeccable provenance.  If you've never heard this LP go directly to Youtube, listen to Hollywood Blvd. and his ultra funky cover of Sunshine Superman and hear your new favorite songs.  You will not be disappointed.


I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED)  NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
