Description
This is a very good original U.S. pressing copy of David Bowie's follow-up to Ziggy Stardust, released in 1973. Utilizing the same supporting cast, the record unsurprisingly sports a similar sound to Ziggy. Highlights include the title track and "The Jean Genie," both released as singles, and rockers like "Watch That Man," "Panic in Detroit," and a cover of the Rolling Stones' "Let's Spend the Night Together." The gatefold jacket's main flaws are two: first, some tearing and residue from what looks like the page of a book or magazine (which must have got stuck to it) along the top seam on the back cover (see picture); and second, some staining and discoloration along the spine, top seam, and elsewhere. There is also some sticker residue on the front cover; a couple of 1-1½” creases along the spine on the front cover; and light ring, corner, spine, and seam wear -- overall VG. The disc is clean with some mostly wispy hairline scratches and scrapes, and plays with occasional moderate crackling and some light surface noise (VG++). The record comes with a custom inner sleeve (VG+).
I am in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their jackets. The jackets have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.
If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
