Description

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

  • Many fans and critics, like the Seller, think these early recordings by 'Rod The Mod' are the best of his long and prolific career.
  • These two 'Best Of' packages are Double Albums that were released in 1976.
  • Volume 1 is a White Label Promo (WLP).
  • Volume 2 is a stock copy.
  • Neither album has ever been played.
  • Each gatefold cover has tight seams, stiff spines and show no wear.
  • These are one-owners that the Seller got new at Tower Records Boston in 1976. They have been in storage for 43 years.
