Mines in VG+ and sounds good. It’s also the blue translucent press.- My copy has a promo stamp on the back cover.
- My version has these runouts:
side a: AFL1-2428-A-IS Masterfonics Gam
side b: AFLI-2428-B-2S Masterfonics Gam
side a also has a scratched k
and side b a skratched I
which variant is it?? - Got a NM translucent blue original, sounds about as good as it can for a nearly 45 year old LP, The songs recorded in Graceland are less dynamic than the tracks pulled from live shows, but still a great collection of his latter year tunes. I am pleased with the overall sound quality!
My copy has side A variant 2 etched and side B variant 4 stamped... do they normally combine variants like that?
This was one of two albums recorded at the Jungle Room in his home in Graceland.- I own a Moody Blue version on the " music girl " label Front and back are the same ( same as front original release ) the only difference is the first two tracks on side A ( 1 = if you love me ( let me know ) 2 = unchained melody ) while on the original copy unchained melody is the first track...there is no year of release only the number US - 672 ( so i think it is an usa release ? ) Anybody heard of this version ?
- Also have a re black 1979
