Description

This is a rare original copy of the excellent I AM WHAT I AM LP by RUTH COPELAND on Invictus Records (SMAS-9802) from 1971.  A fantastic funk/soul/psych/rock record from this great artist, backed by legendary members of FUNKADELIC!  The vinyl is in VG/VG- condition with light marks and wear and some audible surface noise (light  crackle); not for the most demanding audiophiles, but an enjoyable copy without skips or other anomalies.  The gatefold cover is in VG+ condition with a few minor scuffs and dings, as pictured.  Don't pass this one up!
