PETE TOWNSHEND - Scoop + Another Scoop (1983/87 Atco archival) EX+/EX,

On offer are fine U.S. pressing copies released on the Atco label of two archival double LPs of outtakes, demos, and home recordings by the Who's guitarist and principle songwriter, Pete Townshend. The LPs' selections span Townshend's career up to that point, from demo recordings dating to the sessions for the Who's debut LP My Generation to tracks from the '80s. I will describe each individually. The first of these collections, Scoop , was released in 1983. The gatefold jacket is in fine condition with a small tear on the spine and a little light wear elsewhere around the edges (EX+). The discs are clean with some fingerprints and light staining and scuffing, and they play with some light surface noise (EX). The record comes with custom inner sleeves (EX-: light rippling and staining, seams intact). The second collection, appropriately enough, is called Another Scoop , and was released four years later (1987). The gatefold jacket has one main flaw, a cutout notch, along with a 1” crease along the spine on the back cover and a little light wear around the edges -- EX(-). There is a small price tag on the front cover. The discs are clean with a little light scuffing on side 4, and they play with minimal surface noise (M-). This record also comes with custom inner sleeves (VG+: two seams of each partially split, small tear at opening of each from the cutout notch in the jacket, light rippling). I’m helping a friend sell his personal collection. I have play graded (spot checked) discs. The jackets will be shipped in plastic sleeves with the discs removed from them. If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
