Xanadu ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA/ OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN, Vinyl, MCA PROMO (1980)

$

30

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I grade a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the eBay grading category to describe the cover condition.

• This is a First Pressing of an MCA Records Promotional copy of the original 1980 release.
• This copy has never been played.
• The gold foil Promo stamp is top right front cover.
• The embossed gatefold cover has tight seams, a stiff spine and shows some shelf wear.
• The board stock inner sleeve has lyrics, credits and photos.
• This is a one-owner that the Seller got new from MCA in 1980. It has been in storage for 45 years.
