C_o_n_d_i_t_i_o_n_s:
COVER: on the whole spine and seams intact, there is a tiny little tear of lamination at the opening upper right corner, you see a stripe of dirt running down from beneath the cover pic towards the bottom spine (removable), slight amount of ring wear on back, otherwise it is very clean: VG+(+)
VINYL: several thin hairline marks from the hairbrush-style, a few superficial scratches that may cause occasional clicks and crackling in parts: visually VG but playgraded VG+, plays loud and clear, definitely without any skip or significant interference to the listening experience
ON THE WHOLE YOU ARE BIDDING ON A PRETTY NICE COPY OF AN ULTRA RARE GEM OUT OF INDIANAPOLIS WHICH COMBINES ELEMENTS OF JAZZ & FUNK WITH LATIN GROOVES & AFRO BRAZILIAN VIBES!
Do not expect a perfect minty copy, this copy definitely shows signs of having been played but nevertheless: bid with confidence, you won´t be disappointed!
