Description
This is a rare original copy of the excellent HUSTLERS CONVENTION LP by LIGHTNIN' ROD on United Artists Records from 1973. A fantastic funk/soul record from this great artist! The vinyl is in VG+ condition with some light wear and some light, unobtrusive surface noise. The gatefold cover is in VG- condition with a few minor scuffs, dings, a tiny diagonal cut-out of the top right corner and a about five inches of scraping along the bottom of the spine, as pictured. Don't pass this one up!
