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." />
Police Reggatta De Blanc (Quiex, Inner, B Electrosound)
Original 1979 issue pressed on TRANSLUCENT QUIEX vinyl. "B" on labels denotes Electrosound Group Midwest, Inc. pressing. Includes original printed inner sleeve.
Vinyl has a few very light surface sleeve scuffs and a touch of sleeve hazing just holding grade back from NM-, nothing I can feel. Labels are excellent. Inner sleeve has cornerwear/edgewear, ringwear, and a seam split at the center of one side edge. Cover has heavy cornerwear/edgewear, heavy ringwear/hazing, a ding/crease top left corner, and numerous scuffs/marks.
