Description
PUCHO & The Latin Soul Brothers :: "Jungle Fire!" :: Original Prestige You are bidding on an original pressing of the rare funk/jazz album Pucho & The Latin Soul Brothers present JUNGLE FIRE! "Van Gelder" is stamped in the run-out and is vaguely legible in the photograph of the label provided below.
This LP is in VG++ condition. There are no scratches or defects to this album which plays throughout in unbelievable condition. I'm very careful with the near mint label and this doesn't quite qualify, but it is very nearly of that caliber. I have recorded the entire album to MP3 for my personal enjoyment once the LP has sold and will be glad to provide one of these as a sample of the sound quality upon request. I will also be glad to include a CDR of the entire album with shipment upon request of the winning bidder at no additional charge.
The cover is shown in two sets of photographs because it is a very cloudy/bleak day. Once with flash and once without, to give you the best possible look both ways. The artwork is very strong with almost no rubbing and certainly no writing or soiling. The seams are not split but a little chipping has occurred. The lower seam is chipped about half an inch right by the sleeve opening. The upper seam is chipped for about three inches running from the seam-corner in. The spine itself is in incredible shape and the artist/title is completely legible. Corners have normal wear for an LP of this age, minor rounding, no serious damage. The back cover is free of writing or any significant rubbing and all the liner notes are completely legible.
Media: VG++ (no signs of wear, incredible playback throughout)
Cover: VG (would be VG+ or above if not for some chipping to the upper & lower seam, detailed above. No seam splits)

Any item selling for more than $50USD will be shipped by priority mail at no additional charge to the buyer ($3.99 domestically).

IMPORTANT FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS:
International bidders are welcome; I ship overseas with regularity. But this is very important: any LP selling for more than $50USD to an international buyer will absolutely require registered shipping, which will cost $30USD. If you are an international bidder with a long history of 100% feedback this rule may be bypassed; if you want to know whether this includes you, please query before bidding, not after. This is non-negotiable. If you are outside North America bidding on an item selling for greater than $50USD, you agree to pay this $30 registered mail charge. Do NOT pay immediately following auction's end with eBay's automatically generated international shipping charge. I will send you an invoice.
I have the right to deny any winning bidder the item if I feel the risk is too great based upon negative feedback, limited feedback, or some other reason at my discretion, including country of residence. This is primarily the case for international buyers. I will not ship an irreplaceable, rare item overseas if I feel the risk is too great. If you are afraid this might indicate you, please contact me before bidding. I clearly want to see the LP go into the hands of anyone who desires it, regardless of circumstances!
Any other questions, please ask and I will respond as immediately as possible.
