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!" />

1980 reissue on PURPLE labels with the large Capitol dome logo. Pressed on semi-translucent (when held to light) QUIEX AUDIOPHILE quality vinyl. Bottom of back cover has Capitol oval and EMI box logos. Star/asterisk stamped in the dead wax run-outs denotes pressing by Capitol Records Pressing Plant, Los Angeles.

Vinyl has a few faint surface sleeve scuffs just holding grade back from NM, nothing I can feel. Side 1 label has light wear at the spindle hole and a round white sticker and side 2 label has a faint smudge at the left side and a manufacturing "crack" to the left of the spindle hole. Original purple Capitol inner sleeve has handling wear/wrinkling, bent/smushed corners and ringwear.
