Here’s an album that I personally, played the SHIT out of when it was released (not this copy, mind you). I had it in Spanish too, and about wore that one out as well. I thought the Spanish version was better than the English one, really – and I...

Here is Caravan’s Back to Front LP. I don’t remember ever playing this one. I worked in a record store in the late 80s, and we had an import section – this was in it. I got all the imports when I left the company – so this was in a box, in...

Here we have Second Helping by Lynryd Skynyrd. Overall, a really great copy of this one – I spun it yesterday in full, and loved the quality of the wax. It plays beautifully – there may be an occasional pop or crackle, but nothing major, and nothing that...

Here we have Idlewild South by the Allman Brothers. In nice shape, you can see that the cover does show a little bit of wear…mostly in dings and dents, more than anything else. I zoomed in on the one spot on the bottom edge where there is a small bit of fraying...

Here is what seems to me to be some unplayed Allman Brothers. The stuff in question feels like I am among the first to even be touching it…you can feel it, in the way the cover hugs the inner. The inner is pristine, which again, makes me think this one was never...

Here’s a really sweet copy of the Dead’s 87 release, In the Dark. This one looks like it was NEVER played at all – I hadn’t looked so intently at the wax before, but it is really close to a NM, or VG+++ – however you want to see it....

Here we have Van Halen’s first, self-titled LP. This one is in great shape, though there is a little wear on it for sure – but for the title, it is better than many that I come across. This one, the cover shows a little bit of shelf wear/age – but...

Here is a copy of Janis Joplin’s I Got Dem Ol’ Kosmic Blues Again Mama! It is in great shape overall, but note there is some fairly pronounced ring wear to the front cover. You can see in the wax that there are no major scuffs or imperfections, nor are...

This is a copy of Abbey Road pressed on Japanese red vinyl. My uncle Hox, the namesake of this record business, picked it up in Viet Nam in 1969…so this one has seen some miles. The cover is worn, and the edges are splitting – the spine on it is about gone...

This is a link to the clip of the record playing…I did not allow my tube amplifier to warm up, so the fullest notes get a little loud – but the record’s quality, and the cleanness of the vinyl should be immediately clear....
