Condello, and their one and only release Phase 1, on Scepter records out of New York.  Did not do well when first released, now regarded as one of the standout psychedelic albums of the 1960s. Catalog number sps-542 A/ B. This appears to be some type of a promo / sample it has a hole punched through the top left corner of the album jacket but it does not go through the inner sleeve which is a die cut older paper sleeve. Side one run out number is.....SPS - 542 A RE MR[in a circle] Δ12646.  Discogs reference number is.1981350.  this is a Columbia records monarch pressing.

Album cover condition is VG plus it has a bit of a ding on the right top corner both of the spine quarters have a little bit of wear overall it's really pretty solid the front does have some type of a kind of a scratch below the word stereo going into the from the red and the pink there it is definitely a scratch on that cover. The back looks brand new to be honest except the whole. The album is a bit dirty but I'll grade it near mint, it's clean I don't see any scratches.

As with all vintage electronics and media this is sold as is with no warranties either expressed or implied as such it is non-referable and non-refundable.

We are marketing one large album collection, the couple had been intimately involved in the music scene in Atlanta Georgia in the '70s '80s and '90s, one partner worked in marketing at CBS Columbia and possibly other record companies in the '70s and '80s The other was an avid collector and session musician and band member across multiple bands and venues in Atlanta. Consequently there is a fairly large percentage of these albums that are Promotional/Sample/Marketing copies some local and some corporate mixed in.

****BEFORE PURCHASE  READ****

After I finally figured out how to do it I have now set all albums to ship USPS Media Mail.  Depending on location and weight I may still ship via USPS Ground Advantage whichever is cheaper for you..... keep checking back we're really just getting going lots of classic rock LP's from the 60s 70s and '80s....

We have adopted the 6 tier, Gold Mine record grading system for all 33 and 1/3 LP's. Generally I'm trying to grade one grade below it's actual reading because I'm still fairly new with this, It's a work in progress...
