VERY BIG SONG AT THE PARADISE GARAGE

 This classic vinyl pressing is from my personal collection. I was a New York City nightclub DJ from 1972 through 1988, and I am auctioning off most of my classic record collection for others to enjoy.  

Since I was at the beginning of the emergence of the disco era,  these records have lots of history to them.  This record was never in a record store being manhandled by hundreds, if not thousands of careless people.  The only other caring fingerprints on this record could have been from other professional DJ / artists of my time such as:  the legendary Walter Gibbons (DJ remixer) Jim Burgess (DJ / Producer / Remixer) Ray F. Caviano ( RFC Records / Producer) Eddie Rivera (International Disco Record Center) Jenny Costa (WKTU guest DJ), David Mancuso (The Loft at 99 Prince St. / Record Pool) or David Morales (For The Record / Def Jam / Producer / Songwriter / Remixer).   If this record could talk!

Eddie Rivera gave me this record at his Record Pool: "International Disco record Center" NYC., 1980.

All of my auctioned records can be programmed in clubs today, to the likeness of quality they had "back in the day"  otherwise, they will not be listed.  I am underestimating the quality of most of my records.  A rating of "Very Good" (you will find) is more in the category of "Excellent" whereas, an excellent rating could be considered a "Near Mint".

  VINYL CONDITION    Goldmine Standards:   Excellent. 

 Fresh and clean.   Some light paper skid marks, but plays magnificantly!   Real nice record.     No skipping, cracking or pops.  It has a nice light-shiny luster.    This record was kept in a smoke free, well ventilated, dehumidified, air-conditioned, pest free, pet free environment for decades (my living room).  This record plays in immaculate condition, and is one of the first pressings, for DJ's only, made loud and clear for programming in top clubs 

Label:   Near Mint. 

 West End Record Label  has no spindle marks, no label fading, no notations or pen marks.     It is fresh and clean. 

Cover Condition:      Excellent.     

Classic West End Records Manhattan Skyline.  Promo cut-out on a 45 degree angle on upper left hand corner.

This is a VERY scarce, hard to find record in this condition. 

GOOD HOME NEEDED:

Please don't bid on this record only if you are an investor, and only going to give it a "quick turn" for profit. 

Please take good care of this classic record. Give her a good loving home.  She has consistently performed well all of her life.   Take good care of her.  Don't place her on something that may scratch her...or cause her harm.  Keep her away from heat and direct hot sun, which will cause her to wilt and expire.  Don't mix her up in a different cover...or misplace her...she may miss you.  Occasionally, place her gently on a padded platter, and carefully lay down her lover...a clean and balanced tonearm not to exceed 3.0 grams of weight, and she will sing for all eternity.  This is all I ask.

Winner:  please pay within 3 days.  Paypal preferred. 

 To sellers abroad...please check with your customs bureau.  Don't get me in the middle.  Tariffs SUCK.  Don't be surprised when it arrives at your border.   Know what to do.  

All records shipped outside N. America must be insured.  Especially Italy.  No exceptions.
