Description: For sale is a vinyl record by Hellen Reddy titled "Play Me Out", originally released in 1981 by MCA Records. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and put it into a MFSL archival inner sleeve. . Inside the dead wax between the labels and the last tracks is machine stamped two boxes on eaither side of upper case "G" (<>-G-<>), along with "MCA script SH", followed by the matrix numbers W-2/W-2, indicating that this album was mastered at MCA Whitnet Recording Studios of Glendale, California by Steve Hall, before early stampers were used to make this record at MCA Records' pressing plant located in Gloversville, New York. These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for their superior sound qualities. There is no original inner sleeve with this listing. The cover is graded as Near Mint. The spine has damage at one of its corners. The vinyl is visually graded as Near Mint, with shiny, bright surfaces, in a like-new condition, without any sleeve marks, smudges, surface scratches, scuffs or spindle marks on the labels. I'm play grading this record as Near Mint. It plays all the way through without any surface noise, skips, pops or lock-ups from start to finish. This is the best copy of this record that I have ever seen or heard and you would be hard pressed to find a copy like this one, especially a Gloversville pressing. I have more Pop albums, as well as records of all genres, listed in my Ebay store. Please take a look. They're predominately Near Mint. 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!
