Description
This is a rare original copy of the excellent MOTHERSHIP CONNECTION LP by PARLIAMENT on Casablanca Records (NBLP 7022, blue background Casablanca labels) from 1975. An absolutely essential funk/soul record from this legendary group. The vinyl is in VG/VG- condition with quite a few light surface marks and some audible surface noise (occasional light crackle audible primarily during silences between songs, but generally unobtrusive to the music); maybe not for audiophiles, but a perfectly enjoyable copy without skips. The cover is in VG+/NM- condition with a few minor scuffs and dings, as pictured. Includes original Casablanca Records insert sleeve with light wear, but all seams intact. Don't pass this one up!
