Mentors You Axed For It! (1st Press, Quiex)
Original 1985 DEATH records FIRST pressing--NOT a later issue! Pressed on QUIEX virgin vinyl--audiophile quality. Vinyl has many light surface sleeve scuffs and light sleeve hazing holding grade down that may cause some background noise and the occasional tick/pop. Labels have a hint of wear around spindle holes. Cover is completely trashed with very heavy wear all-around, entirely split top and bottom edge seams, writing inside cover and some papers attached inside cover (see photo).
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.
