Description: For sale is a vinyl record by Jose Nogueras titled Ser Boricua Es Un Honor, originally released in 1987 by Musica Estival in Puerto Rico and imported into the United States. In the dead wax between the labels and the last tracks is machine stamped "MIAMI TAPE", followed by an etched "JG", indicating that this record was mastered at Miami Tape Studios, located in Hialeah, Florida by Jorge Garcia. These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for their superior sound qualities. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and immediately put the album into an archival inner sleeve. Doing this protects the integrity of 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, still in the original shrink wrap, is graded as Near Mint. The spine is Near Mint. The vinyl is visually graded as Very Good Plus with surfaces that are shiny and bright, in a like-new condition, with very superficial surfaces scratche, but without any smudges or spindle marks on the labels. I'm play grading it as Near Mint , with some occasional ultra low level surface noise, more noticeable during the quietest sections of playback, but mostly masked by the music. It plays all the way through without any skips or pops. This is the best copy of this record that I have ever heard and you would be hard pressed to find a copy that sounds this great. I have more Latin albums, as well as records of all genres 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!
