Description

From my own collection, here is one of the “Holy Grails” in vinyl collecting. And please check my other auctions for other LPs that may be of interest to you.

 

IN THIS AUCTION: 

 

·       “WAITING FOR THE SUN” by The Doors  

·       This LP Elektra EKL - 4024.

·       It is a MONO (Monaural) LP with the brown Elektra labels.

·       This LP was released July 11, 1968.

·       It was The Doors first and only #1 LP.

·       The LP in this auction is the EXTREMELY RARE MONAURAL PRESSING of  The Doors’ LP “Waiting For The Sun”. While all of The Doors MONO pressings are rare and hard-to-find, “Waiting For The Sun” is the RAREST.  

·       The LP has great cuts on it including “Hello, I Love You” and “Love Street” and “Unknown Soldier”. It is interesting that the song “Waiting For the Sun” was not on this LP. It came on the “Morrison Hotel” LP.

·        The GATEFOLD COVER is in VERY STRONG VG CONDITION (Or perhaps Weak VG+.) The cover has overall moderate wear. No writing on the cover and no seam splits. There is some light corner wear and edge wear and slight wear on the spine. There’s a slight corner push at bottom right. Cover is quite nice. Check the images!     

·       The VINYL is in STRONG VG+ CONDITION with LOTS OF GLOSS. There are a few light hairlines/scuffs.  

·       The LP comes with the correct Elektra tan/brown and white paper inner sleeve which has a 2-inch split on the bottom at the center. 

·       This is a GREAT EXTREMELY RARE/HARD-TO-FIND LP IN DECENT CONDITION. It’s a “Must Have!” for any vintage vinyl collection. A great Christmas gift, for sure!!!

 

NO RESERVE ON THIS AUCTION!!!
