Here we are looking at Tony Fruscetta’s self titled LP.
This one, the cover looks like it got beat up a bit, then fixed, while the vinyl is in better shape. The cover has the bottom edge fixed (many years back, judging from the tape color) and it has a split busting out in the middle of the spine…I zoomed a pic of each to show it more clearly. The front panel is decent enough, with noted wear/bumps and a very small tear up where the mouthpiece of his horn is. The back cover is a bit yellowed/stained by age, and has the visible tape on the bottom edge. There is a small price tag up in the top left with a bit of paper bubbling, and all of the liners are legible.
Labels are great. The vinyl is very clean, and as you can see in the pix, has a great and even shine to it (suggesting less play time seen). I didn’t spin it, but it looks really nice, and should play as such.
