Paul Kantner - Blows Against The Empire // Vinyl Record
SOLD
LSP-4448
Our Process
We adhere to the Goldmine Standard. Each album cover, sleeve, and insert is checked for tears and imperfections. The vinyl disc is professionally cleaned, then visually examined for any marks or scratches that may remain. We cue it up and sample any areas with wear. We carefully identify the specific release using every data point we have: barcodes, art, labels, catalog IDs, dead wax run outs, etc. We do our best, but we’re still human, so we tend to grade conservatively. The images from Discogs are shown here to help identify this specific release - the copy you'll recieve will be uniquely yours, and we'll call attention to anything you'd need to know. Please drop us a line if you have any questions!
