·       JAMES BROWN – IT’S A MAN’S MAN’S MAN’S WORLD - ORIGINAL 1966 KING RECORDS MONO LP 985

·       ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING

·       ORIGINAL BLACK KING MONO LABEL WITH SILVER PRINT AND "CROWN" LOGO (EARLY-TO-MID 60’s STYLE)

·       ORIGINAL "TEXTURED" COVER WITH SILVER-SPRINKLED LETTERING.

·       NOTE: this delicate, frail,  silver-sprinkled cover is EXTREMELY susceptible to wear and tear. Practically no copy we’ve ever seen was anywhere near mint or devoid of excessive ring wear. Most copies we’ve seen in the past 37 years had silver “sprinkles” smeared all over the place and totally worn out.  To preserve this cover in a truly immaculate condition, the original owner had to be have been very smart and KEEP the original, protective shrink wrap intact. We are very thankful for the original owner of this album for wisely doing exactly that: keeping the original shrink wrap in place, which has beautifully shielded and protected the delicate cover from the harmful impact of the elements (such as partying, booze and other, er… extracurricular activities) over the decades.

·       THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

·       ORIGINAL, THICK CARDBOARD COVER (AMERICAN STYLE)

·       COVER IS STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL SHRINK (CELLOPHANE) WRAP

·       CLEAN, WEAR-FREE LABELS

·       THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING

·       MONO version of this album has NEVER been available on legitimate Compact Disc or in any other digital format.

(Note: this is a REAL image of the ACTUAL item you are bidding on. This is NOT a "recycled" image from our previous auction. What you see is what you’ll get.  GUARANTEED!)

To truly experience the magic and soul of James Brown, one must do so in a live setting. Running constantly on all cylinders, the Godfather of Soul's infectious grooves and potent performances are elevated to a whole other level few others can dream of reaching. It's a Man's Man's Man's World captures one of those impassioned performances from the mid-stages of Brown's career, and finds him still in fine form. All of the classics are represented in this session, including an over the top version of the album's title track.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT. This is one of those albums that are somewhat difficult to grade. It is somewhere between VG++ and NEAR MINT, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A few light abrasions ARE visible, but they are extremely shallow, superficial  and only moderately visually distracting (nothing significant).For the most part, the vinyl looks impeccable without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The record is pressed on a beautiful, VERY thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)           Somewhat counterintuitively, MONO pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more  preferable to its stereo counterpart. We think that the mix is more natural, humane, "organic" and that the mixes are somewhat different than on the stereo version. We estimate that stereo copies of this album outnumber mono pressings by a ratio of at least 3:1.

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER (this is the original “textured” (silver-sprinkled) cover)

COVER IS STRONG NEAR MINT,  STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-        Cover has a visible wrinkle (bubble in paper slick) on the front panel

-         Cover has JUST A HINT of ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 2   (VISIBLE ON BACK SIDE ONLY)

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
