Description
Nice excellent cover and NM record. The cover is graded excellent with just a small 3/4 inch bit of color scratched off the top seam shown in picture 10 and a lite bump on the bottom right corner seen in photo 1. Neither are much of a distraction to the beauty of the cover.
The near mint record judging by the lone spindle mark on each side of the records label and the like new condition of the record, appears to have been carefully played at most a couple times.
I purchased this lp used around 1994 at my favorite used record store in San Jose in exactly the same condition you see here. I bought this really not to play or listen to but just to add to my Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Lp collection.
I started collecting these Mobile Fidelity Lps when they first started appearing in the record racks at the local stereo retailers back in 1979. In my area the best place to buy high end stereo equipment was Pacific Stereo. These high end stereo retailers were also the only places you would find Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Lps being sold. Part of the quality sound check was to test the equipment you were interested in by using the immaculate new sound found on these MFSL records, there were no CDs back then. MFSL was it. They were enticingly cool, the see thru vinyl when held under a light, the beautiful sheen on the vinyl, the design of the cover (ORIGINAL MASTER RECORDING) and of course the sound quality and quietness of the vinyl. You were sold, and convinced you can only play these MFSL records on the best equipment in the store. The record deserves nothing less. Yep that was me, I'd play them a few times, then feel guilty that maybe I'm going to wear it out if I played it too much. So instead of playing them I'd put them away and look at them once in a while. then CDs arrived.
