Bad luck and tragedy seemed to strike this band at every turn, but I so clearly remember their first single "Come And Get It" in the late 60's and was hooked on their music ever since. The last original member, Joey Molland, passed away just a couple of months ago leaving no original members surviving.

USA release (Jacksonville pressing)
Broadcast heavy card archival cover is in very good condition with no personal writing. Note the cover, this was originally a jukebox copy then fitted with the centre adaptor and placed in our studio library within a special archival cover which is plain vanilla and lined inside.
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in good (minus) condition, visually inspected under a bright White halogen light source and I can see a number of very light ~ light scratches on either side although none look to be "troublesome". Just looking at the vinyl is not a great way to judge the condition so I then played the ENTIRE release, both sides, and while there is a slightly elevated level of surface noise, it is not terrible and still a good play of this classic music from the band.
New outer protective sleeve
