The sublime Time Capsule remains Weldon Irvine s most fully realized and influential recording. Assembled as a kind of musical scrapbook documenting the thought patterns and belief systems of the early 70s, it nevertheless boasts a surprising vitality and timelessness thanks to luminous funk grooves that anticipate the latter-day emergence of acid jazz. Irvine also rhymes over several tracks, further cementing his influence on successive generations of hip-hop. A profoundly righteous spirituality winds through all eight of Time Capsule s performances, assaying both the affection Soul Sisters and anger Watergate vying for control of post-Woodstock America. Irvine s searing keyboard and piano playing further capture the moment in question, deftly balancing between beatitude and bitterness.

lt if supportLists gt lt endif gt CONDITION:
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt lt endif gt THE RECORD
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt a lt endif gt WE GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT. This is one of those albums that are somewhat difficult to grade. It is somewhere between VG and NEAR MINT, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A few light abrasions ARE visible, but they are extremely shallow, superficial and only moderately visually distracting nothing significant .For the most part, the vinyl looks impeccable without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt b lt endif gt The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt c lt endif gt Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt lt endif gt THE COVER
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has some light ring wear nothing significant On the scale from 1 to 10 1 being the least, and 10 being the most severe , we assess the severity of ring wear as 4
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Back cover has circular tarnish grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record , probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover shows some light yellowing on back side, apparently from aging nothing significant
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the seams nothing significant
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has some visible fraying/tattering on the bottom seam and spine very close to splitting
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Visible shelf wear noted on the top seam.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged nothing significant
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt The cover has a few tiny scratch marks on the front side BARELY VISIBLE
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER
