Description

A mint, unplayed set of 6 colored vinyl versions of the ultra rare Pearl Jam promo only sampler EP's made at the time of the release of their Ten box set; the discs are silver/gold/red/white/clear and black, each with it's own fold over picture sleeve and plastic outer sleeve (each of which has a title sticker, the color of which corresponds to the color of the disc inside.)

All singles, sleeves and outer sleeves are in mint, unplayed condition, other than the black disc which while unplayed, has a tiny bit of superficial sleeve scuffing, so we'll grade that Near Mint. A very limited number of these sets were evidently made as a "thank you" for those involved with the "1990-1992" Boxed Set, but evidently weren't distributed for some reason.

Each EP includes not only the tracks "State of Love And Trust"/"Oceans"/"Deep" and "Evil Little Goat", but after the 4th track there is a 5th hidden track not listed on the label. It's in a locked groove, meaning when "Evil Little Goat" ends, it appears like the side is over. But if you lift the needle an set it back down, there is a short version of the Alice In Chains song "It Ain't Like That" that starts off with mainly drums and bass, then a voice which says (at least this is what it sounds like it says) "Hello, this is Abe Vigoda and I just want to say that Alice In Chains rocks my world." (Abe Vigoda is an American character actor, and it sounds as if this is just Pearl Jam screwing around during a recording session.)

We grade all records visually, cover first, then disc; using the abbreviations M / NM / EX / VG with + and -. We try to describe everything as accurately as possible, and spot check any vinyl flaw that looks like it might make a sound. We regularly receive praise for our grading, but as all grading is subjective, we are happy to give a full refund for anything you aren't happy with no questions asked.

Unlike some eBay sellers, we don't feel the need to hype records by including long reviews or albums, quoting lyrics, making up arcane variations. We just grade accurately, describe any flaw, and sell only high quality rare records in fine condition.
