About This Record.  This is an original USA copy of The Other Half's same titled LP that was released in 1966 on 7/2 Records in a very small quant it (<500).  This is a GREAT garage band from Pennsylvania that released only this record and one 45rpm; for fans of The Rising Storm and The Inside Out and The Half Tribe from whence The Other Half evolved, and for fans of the Rolling Stones of course.  

This is the Original left opening private release cover (no I didn't reverse the photos). Hans Pokora gives this his very very highest rating, 6 stars AND his coveted "Masterpiece of Music" symbol; Acid Archives R3-R4 and even Vernon Joynson R4 and HIghly recommended.  From Wright's perspective, I agree with Hans for sure!  USA garage doesn't get much better than this LP which I think rivals the Stowaways on Justice Records.  And I paid $600 for one copy, and $800 for another copy, and this is the vinyl from one, and the cover from one.  That's why I'm starting this at $299!  Good luck, and even better luck finding another copy of the cover or the vinyl in nicer condition (although this copy's Gloria (Track A1) does play with some annoying ticks which is the main reason I grade this VG). See the Details Below.

PLEASE CHECK my Feedback which will show you my grading, Cover/Vinyl, of other LPs I have recently sold and what the lucky people who bought them think of them and their experience with me. The photos of the labels or cover list the songs and any possible details about the labels. 

I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA and foreign buyers in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase.  Comes hand-cleaned on my VPI 16.5 Record Cleaning machine (hate those automated 17's) and placed in a new dust-free sleeve for your grandchildren.  And at least one plastic sleeves for moisture protection (for you and me).

Cover Condition: STRONG Good Plus (G+) cover.  Almost half of the top seam is split, and one third of bottom seam are torn/split; some small writing on the front cover on opening left edge, and some short spine splits and flaking.  Please See all the Photos I took.  I didn't take them for fun and frolic.

Vinyl Condition: Very STRONG (VG) vinyl.  No sticks or jumps or sticks of course, most songs play VG+ with hints of EX, but a couple songs have some light background noise and Track A1 has a short scratch that makes clicks for about the first 20 seconds.  Some visual scuffs and a few long but light stylus marks on Side 2 as well.  Plays strong and a keeper copy as these things go.

Labels. Awesome Excellent Plus (EX+) labels with the lightest of wear.  Please see photos of all labels.

Inserts: Comes with original plain white (now very brown!) inner sleeve, but no worries, this LP also comes cleaned on my KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Machine and in a new rice paper sleeve equivalent.

Packaging.  I clean all vinyl on my KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Machine and place it in a new innersleeve so the old dust does not reattach; but I also include the innersleeve that came with the LP if it is the original.  I separate the vinyl in its new sleeve after cleaning from the cover, and place the cover and the separately packed vinyl in at least one if not two plastic innersleeves that help protect against moisture damage during this cool records transition to your record collection.  I use sturdy carboard containers with real corners and pack with at least two insert stiffeners, and I place neon stickers on the front and back of the package indicating “Do Not Bend” and/or “Fragile” or something like that to help facilitate a safe passage.

Shipping and Payment.  PayPal only.  I ship promptly worldwide; sometimes the automatic eBay invoice does not have accurate shipping if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. . . .  I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways, unless you live outside North America in which case I will refund you shipping one way unless I made a mistake which I sometimes do because I am only human..  CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS:  Please add sales tax!
