Description: For sale is a 45 RPM vinyl single from Brook Benton titled "Rainy Night In Georgia b/w Where Do I Go From Here", originally released in 1969 by cotillion records, manufactured by Atlantic Records. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and immediately put it into an archival inner sleeve, then into a storage box for seven inch 45 RPM vinyl records, that was kept under optimum conditions for both temperature and humidity until today. The inner sleeve is graded as Excellent because of a creased corner and small wrinkles along the top opening. On the labels, after the matrices, is a "PL" suffix, along with a "1" in Magic Marker. In the dead wax between the labels and the last tracks is etched "AT" and "LW", indicating that the record was mastered at Atlantic Studios of New York City, N.Y. then lacquered at Long Wear Plating in Long Island City, N.Y. before it was pressed at Plastic Products' pressing plant located in Memphis, Tennessee. These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for their superior sound qualities. The vinyl is visually graded as Very Good because of superficial sleeve marks and hairlines, none of which can be felt with a fingertip. I'm play grading this record between Very Good (Side One) and Very Good Plus (Side Two) because of occasional low levels of surface noise, more pronounced on Side One. It plays all the way through without any pops, skips or lock-ups from start to finish. You would be hard pressed to find a copy of this record in this condition, especially a Memphis first pressing. This would be a welcome addition to anyone's collection. Please read all descriptions and look at all pictures, as this is a final sale and I do not accept returns. Thank you for viewing my listing. I've been collecting records for more that 50 years and always clean them before and after playback to keep them in a pristine condition. I try to describe them to the best of my ability and use record grading guidelines like the Goldmine rating system as reference. Since retiring, I've begun to sell my very esoteric collection via my Ebay store (bobsanalogemporium) and will offer discounts for multiple sales. I always pack the items for sale in an archival inner sleeve, then put them in either a Kraft paper bubble mailer with sturdy cardboards or cardboard record mailers, always with the records separate from the jackets or its original picture sleeve, then sandwiched between sturdy cardboards before shipping. Please read all descriptions carefully and note all pictures before-hand, as I do not accept returns. Please visit my Ebay store for records, 45's, cassette tapes and comics of all different genres. They're predominately Near Mint. Thank you viewing my listing.
