Description

This is a 10 inch, 2-song acetate by the band "The Border Patrol".
Acetate manufactured and possibly?/probably? recorded at the legendary Gold Star Studios (Los Angeles, CA) -famously once the recording home of Phil Spector, The Beach Boys, etc.
**One side is titled "La Bikina". Google tells me that this track was released as a single in 1973. I am not sure if this is the released version or mix.
**The other side is titled "Magaly (Theme From Motion Picture PARAISO)". "Paraiso" was apparently a Latin film released in 1970. I am not sure if this version of the song was the one used in the film.
Both tracks are easy listening instrumentals, with horns and mellow accompaniment. 
Both tracks play on the inside band of the disc, near the label - the outer disc banding is blank/silent.
Side one plays fairly quietly with only minimal crackle.
Side two shows more disc wear - the track plays, but with audible crackle/scratching sounds. Not enough to make the track unlistenable, but you can hear the crackle.
As far as how the acetate disc looks, there are some age storage spots on both sides and some light scuffing, but this mainly affects the outer (silent/blank) portion of the disc.

THANKS!!
