PLAY TESTED! I recently played this LP and it SOUNDS AWESOME! But you will hear surface noise typical with a Very Good grading.
Up for sale is one(1) THE DOORS - L.A. Woman 1st Pressing LP with the Cellophane Window, Embossed Cover & Yellow inner sleeve from 1971 on the Elektra Records (#EKS-75011). There is No Barcode.
Has the Artisan symbol etched in the deadwax signaling a high quality mastering, which is why this LP sounds so good after 50+ years.
This is the very rare TRUE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING with Rounded Corners, EMBOSSED COVER, SEE THROUGH CELLOPHANE WINDOW WITH THE YELLOW INNER SLEEVE WITH THE WOMAN BEING CRUCIFIED ON THE TELEPHONE POLE and 15 COLUMBUS DRIVE ADDRESS on the BUTTERFLY ELEKTRA LABEL.
YOU MUST HAVE ALL OF THESE ATTRIBUTES TO HAVE A TRUE FIRST PRESSING.
The Vinyl is in Very Good condition with typical wear that may cause surface noise typical with a Very Good grading. Even with a Very Good grading there is going to be a certain amount of surface noise. Certainly more noticeable during the quiet parts.
Nice fairly clean Elektra Butterfly labels with some spindle marks. And the Side 2 label has a bubbling effect.
The custom inner sleeve is in Good+ condition with typical wear from age, including, but not limited to dings, scrapes, ring wear, and creases & crumples. There is a large split seam on the bottom.
The LP is now in a plain white inner sleeve.
The cover is in Very Good condition with typical wear from age, including, but not limited to dings, scrapes, ring wear, and creases & crumples, all of which are typical with this very delicate cover. There is some fraying around the window(typical with this cover). There are no split seams.
This cover typically does not age well because of all the delicate parts, but this one is in Very Good shape.
I am thinning out my vinyl collection. This is the actual item you will receive. See the photos and judge for yourself.
