Great album, music from the Warner Bros. Motion Picture composed and produced by Curtis Mayfield.

This US issue vinyl is a Presswell pressing with "PR" in the label matrix and the following etched matrix/runouts;

Side A, variant 1: ST-A-763613 C @t GP
Side B, variant 1: ST-A-763614B- ATAP

Inner sleeve is an Atlantic "SOUL" one.

Sleeve condition VG, very tidy except for wear to the top edge.

Vinyl condition is EX, lovely sound.

PLEASE NOTE: I do not "sight-test" records and list with comments like "vinyl looks to be in good condition". This is because a disc can look perfect but still have surface noise throughout (as I've found on too many occasions). All my records are played from start to finish on a fairly unforgiving Sansui deck fitted with an Ortofon cartridge and stylus.
