Amy Grant The Collection (Quiex, Shrink, Hype, Inner, TML)
SUPER RARE 1986 TRANSLUCENT BROWN QUIEX AUDIOPHILE VIRGIN VINYL pressing from THE MASTERING LAB (TML-X stamped in dead wax). Amazing sound quality! Few of these audiophile pressings were made, and most went to label heads or went out as promos.
Vinyl is excellent with a few very light surface sleeve scuffs just holding grade back from NM, nothing I can feel. Labels have a touch of wear. Original lyric inner sleeve has light handling wear and light cornerwear/ edgewear. Cover in original shrink-wrap with HYPE sticker on shrink has light cornerwear, a touch of edgewear on right edge, and a small white rice sticker upper right corner on shrink.
If you’re not familiar with Quiex, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980s, record companies started pressing Quiex II lps for primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. But if too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent brown Audiophile beauty IS one of those pressings.
