The Innocence – Debut Self-Titled Pop Rock-Psych Rock Vinyl LP – OG Mono Sealed

$

26

This group is not particularly well known.  It’s actually a duo.  It’s a collaboration between two prolific songwriters:  Pete Andreoli and Vinnie Poncia. This was their one and only release, and it was very successful for the team. This was just the start of the psychedelic era, with the pop rock and British invasion era now in the rear view mirror.  This still falls more into that pop rock genre, but it’s very sophisticated songwriting.  It’s a fun listen!  The album was released on Kama Sutra in 1967, number KLP 8059. This is the original mono release of the album.  The album is still sealed so the vinyl is presumed to be in mint condition. The album cover shows light ring wear and no corner or edge wear.  All seams are clean, sharp, tight, and intact. There is age discoloration on the back. The cover grades VG.

Grading Information

I use four grades in my grading:  NM, VG+, VG, and G.  The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or two small defects.  It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static. On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album.  Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading.  Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there. That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen.  In this case the vinyl will be graded VG.  Occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G. This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy.

Shipping Information – Combined Shipping

Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates.  Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. The first album will typically cost approximately $22. Additional albums will be shipped for $6 per album, with up to four pounds able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.

Shipments to outside the US and Canada will vary depending on your country. Typically the cost per album will be no more than $27.  Combined shipping is welcome here as well, at a cost of $10 per additional album up to the maximum of four pounds.

All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening.  The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve.  I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments.  If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day.
