The summary above was written by AI from what is known of the artist and the pressing. It is not a description of this copy's condition, and we have not checked every detail — ask us and we will tell you what we can actually see.
Condition above is the family's own grading — ask and we will describe the disc properly before either side commits. Nothing in this collection has a fixed price; an enquiry starts a conversation.
