Description

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN 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.


INCREDIBLY RARE original Greg Calbi mastered Electrosound Group Midwest pressing on I.R.S. from 1984(?) pressed on PURPLE/GREY TRANSLUCENT VINYL with a (B) under the copyright date on the labels, STERLING dead wax stamp, original yellow rectangular hype sticker on the front cover and glossy black & white printed inner sleeve!!!  Looks cool as hell when held up to a light.  Release year is unclear as there is not a single entry for this pressing anywhere in the massive, sprawling Discogs database.  I have had well over 15 copies of this LP pass through my hands in my 40+ years of collecting and I have never seen this variant before, only brown translucent vinyl.  VERY rare.  LP is a gorgeous VG++/NM-.  Cover is still in the original shrink wrap and beautiful.  An absolute high grade copy of this rarity in collector condition.  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
