Vanity Wild Animal (Quiex, Inner)

Original 1984 Motown FIRST pressing on QUIEX VIRGIN VINYL. Vinyl has a few light surface sleeve scuffs/hazing just barely holding grade back from NM-, nothing I can feel though. Mastered At Allen Zentz L.A., Calif. in dead wax run-outs. Original inner sleeve has a touch of handling wear. Cover has light cornerwear/edgewear, a light ding lower left corner, and heavy ringwear/hazing.

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.
