Dave Valentin - Land Of The Third Eye
Arista Records (USA)
Cat# AR-1051
1980
Philippines release (Vicor Music Corporation under licence from Arista USA)
Cover is in very good condition, no writing, no tears, no seam splits and barely any edge wear from handling - like most of the Filipino albums I am offering, they were stored in their original sealed plastic wrapping. It is interesting to note how these covers were fabricated, many of the Philippines releases had the front/rear graphics printed onto thin gloss paper stock which was then glued to the plain heavy cardboard cover. Also the record labels had a clear film placed over them to give a glossy finish to the record label.
The side B clear record label film has lifted slightly - I have left it this way but it could be easily removed if desired, but then the glossy look would be lost.
New plastic inner sleeve is supplied
Vinyl is in very good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source and I can only see a couple of very light scratches on each side. I then played both sides entirely and there are no significant issues with surface noise or clicks/pops - any surface noise is of a very low level and clicks/pops were not noticed at all. Very very nice funky music.
Supplied in new outer protective plastic sleeve
Tracks: Sidra's Dream, Astro-March, Open Your Eyes, Fantasy, Land Of The Third Eye, The Tellers, Pana Fuerte (Strong Friendship)
