VG- Will show a moderate number of visible imperfections; the presence of a considerable number of light scratches will force a VG- grade, as will the presence of significant isolated defects such as scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
Dexter Wansel – Time Is Slipping Away on 12” vinyl. This is an original first pressing of this standout jazz-funk / Philadelphia soul release featuring Dexter Wansel’s signature production and arrangements. ⸻ Condition • Vinyl: NM (Near Mint) — Beautiful glossy vinyl with minimal signs of handling. An exceptionally clean copy that plays beautifully. • Sleeve: VG+ (Very Good Plus) — Original shrink wrap is still present but not 100% intact. The sleeve was downgraded from EX due to light edge wear along the opening side and a cut corner. Aside from those issues it presents very nicely and still has the original price sticker on the front. A beautiful collector and playback copy of this increasingly sought-after Dexter Wansel release.
This record is pressed on black wax, just like the original release.
