LP (Item 601982) Grateful Dead, 1974 — Condition: Near Mint-
Related searches
A seminal mid-70s album from the Grateful Dead – one issued on their own label, and a strong bridge between the early Warner and later Arista years! There's an intimate, focused quality to the record that shows the group maturing – not that the sound is commercial, but maybe just more forged from long years of working together in a live environment – which means that they can effortlessly compact things down in a studio set like this. The set features some lasting classics like "Ship Of Fools", "Scarlet Begonias", "China Doll", and "US Blues" – plus the tunes "Money Money", "Unbroken Chain", and "Pride Of Cucamonga". © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Near Mint - (minus)
- Black vinyl that may show a slight amount of dust or dirt.
- Should still be very shiny under a light, even with slight amount of dust on surface.
- One or two small marks that would make an otherwise near perfect record slightly less so. These marks cannot be too deep, and should only be surface marks that won't affect play, but might detract from the looks.
- May have some flaws and discoloration in the vinyl, but only those that would be intrinsic to the pressing. These should disappear when the record is tilted under the light, and will only show up when looking straight at the record. (Buddah and ABC pressings from the 70's are a good example of this.)
- May have some slight marks from aging of the paper sleeve on the vinyl.
- Possible minor surface noise when played.
Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
