Optimistics Self Titled S/t Sole Lp Insanely Rare Orig. 1970 Turbo Northern Soul

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT NM IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER . OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS NM- IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.

ULTRA RARE original first pressing of this Baltimore five-man northern soul outfit s sole LP on Turbo from 1970 Cover is G with a moisture stain and some peeling on the bottom half but only two minutes of one song on the LP has ever been played This LP was included in a collection I recently purchased and was still sealed. I opened it, cleaned it well with a VPI machine and played two minutes of the one song that had some light cosmetic clouding, Love Is God Almighty, to see if it affected playback and was delighted to find at had absolutely no affect whatsoever. 99 of this LP has never been played. You will be the first to put a needle to this incredibly rare northern soul gem. Only one copy has come up for sale in the last four years so don t sleep. It will most likely be a lot longer before another one surfaces.

I USE GOLDMINE GRADING
