Nanci Griffith Last Of The True Believers (Quiex, Inner)
Original 1986 Philo AUDIOPHILE pressing on translucent (when held to light) QUIEX VINYL complete with printed lyric inner sleeve!
Side 1 grades NM- with a several very faint surface sleeve scuffs just holding grade back from NM. Side 2 grades VG with numerous light surface sleeve scuffs/hazing and a few light scratches holding grade down, nothing I can feel though. Labels are excellent. Original lyric inner sleeve has light handling wear/wrinkling, a small seam split/blowout middle of left side edge and bottom left corner is bent/smushed. Cover has cornerwear/edgewear, a hint of moisture staining along the top edge, light spidering/creasing around the edges, right side corners a slightly bent/creased, light ringwear/hazing and a name written in faded blue marker bottom right corner of back cover.
If you’re not familiar with QUIEX, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980’s, record companies started pressing “Quiex II” LPs primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded just as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. 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 (when held to light) AUDIOPHILE beauty is one of those pressings!
