Bela Fleck Inroads (Quiex, Lbl Insert)
Original 1986 Rounder AUDIOPHILE pressing on translucent (when held to light) QUIEX VIRGIN VINYL!
Vinyl has a slight dish warp that does not affect play just holding grade back from NM, otherwise vinyl is excellent and appears unplayed. Labels are excellent. Roundup Records insert sheet is excellent. Cover has a light bump at the bottom right corner and a touch of faint ringwear just holding cover grade back from NM.
If you’re not familiar with QUIEX, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980’s, record companies started pressing “Quiex II” LPs primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded just as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. If too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent (when held to light) AUDIOPHILE beauty is one of those pressings!
