This is there first debut album of Iron Butterfly of 1968 and is a Record Store Day Exclusive a Reissue of the 1968 Mono. It has been remastered in original Mono sound. This album became the beginning of the Psychedelic movement an important and influence albums of the 1960's. 

The cover of the album is in Mint condition, the condition of the vinyl in Mint condition. The Record doesn't skip on both sides when you play them goes all the way through. Other then that looks decent even the label is cleaned, may have some lights scratches as this is typical for a new Vinyl that comes out as Reissues there more shine compared to an older new record. It's open  from the plastic as it is not closed as you may know some of the newer records released by Record Store Day may have some defects as some skip when you play them both sides. One example is The Doors Weird Scenes Inside A Gold Mine Limited Edition orange color see through vinyl that came out this year in April, had several defects and where return for an exchange. I not found any defects when you play the record now I did when I played side 2 it may be my needle or the record may have some dirt now even though its new. 

I will start the bid low but get it while you can especially because this is a Mono Version of the album even though it's not the original first pressing. It will be a great addition to your collection of records, mono collection, or to any Iron Butterfly fan. 

This is my record grading standards I use, if you don't agree let me know and I will change it or give me your opinion. If you don't like my grading system then do not bid or think before bidding. When you bid like I said bid with confidence.

RECORD GRADING GUIDELINES

FOR VINYL RECORDS:

Mint (M): Perfect. I will only use this for a brand new, sealed item.

Near Mint (NM): A nearly perfect record. No obvious signs of wear, though there may be very slight imperfections inherent in the vinyl pressing.

Excellent (EX): This is a listing that may not quite be NM, but is just too good to be listed as any variation of “VG”.

Very Good Plus (VG+): Record shows some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps not affecting the sound are OK. Label may have some ring wear or discoloration.

Very Good (VG): Record may have some light scratches and scuffs that may affect the sound especially in softer passages of the record, but will not overpower the music. There will be no skips in the record.

Very Good Minus (VG-): Record will have scratches and scuffs that will affect the sound. The noise will not detract from enjoying the record. Very old records with significant wear will be listed under this classification. There will be no skips in the record.

FOR LP COVERS & 45 & EP SLEEVES:

Mint (M): Perfect. Again…a brand new, sealed item.

Near Mint (NM): No creases, folds, seam splits, or cut-out holes. Only the slightest signs of handling may be visible.

Excellent (EX): This is a listing that may not quite be NM, but is just too good to be listed as any variation of “VG”.

Very Good Plus (VG+): Slight creases or signs of wear may be visible. May be marred by a cut-out hole or other indication that it was taken out-of-print.

Very Good (VG): Creases, significant wear, and significant ring wear will be visible. No splits or tape.  Very Good Minus (VG-): Creases, significant wear, and significant ring wear will be visible more so than on a VG cover. Splits or tape may be present. There may be some writing on the cover.
