Description

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP

ULTRA RARE COMPLETE UNPLAYED original JJ Golden mastered first pressing from June of 2009 on Hydra Head pressed on cream colored vinyl with gatefold-book cover, printed inner sleeve, original color indicator sticker in the top left hand corner on the front of the resealable poly outer sleeve and original orange circular artist and title hype sticker in the top right hand corner!!!  Vinyl and cover have never been removed from the poly outer sleeve.  I bought this new at Reckless Records here in Chicago and filed it away in my personal collection.  Even has the original custom barcoded Reckless info/price labels on the rear of the outer poly sleeve dated June of 2009 (and listed as new so you know it's legit).  Even includes the original Reckless RECEIPT dated June 15th of 2009 from when I purchased this rarity almost 17 years ago(!) at their Wicker Park location (along with an Original Silence LP, a Mirrors LP, a JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound LP and a Rodriguez LP)!!!  A stone mint, unplayed copy with airtight provenance that can be traced to the exact day and point of purchase.  THIS is what collecting is about Karp/Big Business/Melvins collectors.  Not a single copy for sale on Discogs.  A massive current and guaranteed future collectable.  You will not be disappointed.

I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED)  NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF US VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
