This listing is for a copy of Lou Donaldson's The Natural Soul album. This is the original mono version on black vinyl. There is a five-inch seam split on the right side top of the sleeve, and also one on the bottom middle of the sleeve. The sleeve has a fair amount of staining on the back. There is also some writing on the top of the back sleeve, and an ink mark on the front. Record plays with noise and crackle in some parts, as there are a few feelable small scratches present, though still plays well.

We employ Goldmine record grading for our vinyl, as it is the widely accepted system for grading the condition of vinyl records and their covers. Though we realize this may still be subjective, we work to be as accurate and descriptive, as possible.
All records are visually graded. When in doubt, play-graded on a modified Technics SL - 1200MK7 turntable with an Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge. Mono vinyl is typically play-graded with a Miyama Kotetu monaural cartridge, with an elliptical stylus.
Shipping
All items ship via USPS Priority Mail. We usually ship within 24-48 hours of confirmed payment. Tracking information will automatically be sent and updated following shipment.
*All used LPs are removed from the sleeve and placed behind the cover, for shipment, in order to minimize ring wear or potential seam splits during shipping. Our utmost focus is to always preserve cover/sleeve condition, so your records get to you safely.
Please note: We cannot ship to forwarding addresses or APO/PO Boxes or unconfirmed addresses.
Vinyl Care
As vinyl junkies, we care very much about our records, and try our very best to keep them in the best condition possible. With this noted, we must advise against playing your vinyl on all-in-one turntables. We understand that they have gained popularity as of late, but unfortunately they are also notoriously known to track poorly and sound poorly as they put much more wear and tear on vinyl records than necessary because they often run way too high on tracking force. Please keep this in mind while shopping for vinyl.
