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.
Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve and a 3 MIL soft poly inner sleeve.
I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.
- A very cool self-titled debut album from one of Boston's greatest bands.
- This White Label Promo has what look like spindle marks on one side but the playing surfaces are clean.
- This is a First Pressing on thick vinyl.
- See notes below for matrix runouts and First pressing indicators.
- The paper on board cover has tight seams and shows edge and corner storage wear. There are no splits.
- The Promo sticker is lower left front cover.
- The inner sleeve has catalog album photos on both sides. I have included a soft poly inner sleeve.
- Seller got this new from Atlantic when it was released in 1970. it has been in storage for 46 years.
