Shake Your Money Maker - 1990 Dutch pressed Def American label 10-track LP

Rare original 1990 Dutch pressed Def American label 10-track LP - the debut album by Georgia based rock combo.

Vinyl has the generic black and white printed company labels with large fonted company name printing along labelrim and circular company logo to the left of centre hole. Vinyl has '670' matrix print, identifying this as a Dutch pressing, and comes complete with picture inner sleeve - held in a glossy single pocket picture cover with 'Sample record - Not For sale' on upper back.

Condition: VG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/M- (Inner Sleeve)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyl is superlustrous and has a light degree of sleeve induced wear only - mint labels. This is obviously an album played with caution a few times at the most and then stored. Vinyl is overall graded straight near perfect.

Dutch pressed albums of this era has - like their american counterparts - a varying degree of carbon dying. At the same time they are extremely prone to surface wear. This copy has some smaller areas of faint greyish structures inherent in the vinyl. This is not foxing or the grey surface reaction often caused by inner sleeves or outer PVC sleeves - this is simply a not so thorough degree of carbon dying, and does not affect the play in any way - nor the grading.

Inner sleeve is mint - cover has a few light and small wrinkles from spine and just a touch of lower very discontinued seam edge wear- a superb copy.
