Answer
Heya Manuel,
 Your album sounds like it was pressed wrong! If I were you, I first would take pictures of the album along with its sleeve (front and back). I would not play the album (because you may cause damage to it) and I would take it along with its cover to a record store. Once you hear what the store manager says, take it to another record store (When you first arrive at the second store, refrain from letting them know you had been to another). Find out what their manager says about the album and its cover. I would take this to as many stores as I could find, just to hear what they will say about it. Then I would decide what to do with it. Maybe write down all the places you travel to, and write what info you receive from each store.
 Manuel, I wish you the absolute best of luck with your item. Take care
