Description: For sale is a vinyl record by Creative Source self titled "Creative Source", originally released in 1973 by Sussex Records with a gate-fold cover presen-tation. In the dead wax between the labels and the last tracks is etched "Son", along with "RAD", indicating that this record was mastered at HDH Sound Studios of Detroit, Michigan by Bob "Super Disc" Dennis before this record was made at Sonic Recording Products' pressing plant located in Holbrook, New York. These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for their superior sound quality. I bought this used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and put it into a MFSL archival inner sleeve. This preserves the vinyl and any original inner sleeve(s) or insert(s) that may have come with the release. There is no original inner sleeve with this listing. The cover is graded as Very Good Plus because of corner blunts, edge rubs, creased corners and faint ink writing on the top right hand side of the front cover. The spine has damage to the corners and in the middle, resulting in color loss and a small piece of paper loss. The vinyl is visually graded as Very Good Plus because of superficial sleeve marks and hairlines, none of which can be felt with a fingertip, but still with surfaces that are shiny and bright, without any scuffs or spindle marks on the labels. I'm play grading this record as Very Good Plus because of occasional ticking and low level surface noise, more noticeable during the quietest sections of playback, but never over-powering the music or vocals. This would be a welcome addition to anyone's collection. I have a lot more Soul and R&B 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!
