Description

For sale is an original 1973 Eastbound Records promo LP of Texas Twister by Melvin Sparks, catalog EB9006, pressed in the USA.

Condition:
• Vinyl: Nice condition, plays cleanly — minor surface marks from light handling
• Sleeve: Shows ring wear and top-right corner snipped from promo designation, but otherwise solid
• Labels: White label, standard promo markings
• Overall, a rare collector’s copy of a classic funk/jazz guitarist

This is a must-have for collectors of soul-jazz, funk, and promo vinyl. Carefully stored and will be shipped securely with protective padding.
