Description: For sale is Santana's Zebop!, originally released in 1981 by Columbia Records. In the dead wax between the label and the last track are matrix numbers 2-D/2-N, signifying that an early stamper was used for this first pressing. This results in superior sound quality and is highly sought after by collectors. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and immediately put the album into a MFSL archival inner sleeve. Doing this protects the integrity of the vinyl and any inner sleeve(s) or insert(s) that may have originally come with the release. The inner sleeve is Near Mint. The cover is graded as VG+ because of corner rubs, ring wear and edge wear. The spine has color loss because of all the rubs. The vinyl is visually graded as VG+ because of surface scratches and sleeve marks. I'm play grading it VG because of ticking during two songs on side one and a little surface noise only noticeable during the quietest sections. Side two has no ticking but it does have surface noise. This would be a welcome addition to anyone's collection who can listen through the defects. I have more Latin albums, as well as records of all genres in my Ebay store. Please take a look, as they're almost all in Near Mint condition. Thank you for viewing my listing. I've been collecting records for about 50 years now and have always cleaned them and put them away carefully in plastic inner sleeves. Over the years I've used Dust Bugs, Disc Washers and have finally invested in a professional VPI record cleaning machine. Now that I'm retiring, I'm selling my very esoteric collection. I'm not a professional grader of records, but will use record guides, as well as my personal experiences as a basis of my grading all records. Since grading is subjective, I will be conservative. I offer discounts for multiple sales. Photos are of the actual item for sale, not a stock photo. Please review all descriptions and photos because I do not accept returns. Thank you for looking!
