Description
To inspect the condition of the item I'm selling a bit more closely, check out the unlisted YouTube video viewable by clicking the highlighted text here.
The item for sale here, in EXCELLENT condition, at an excellent price is what may very well be the greatest single-artist vinyl box set ever released.
Limited edition from the outset, and now long out of print, one of the greatest and most important American bands of the '60s is given the loving care and attention they and their recorded legacy deserve.
Rather than yammer on, I'll encourage you again to check out the video above, and add that you should peruse the full list of this one-of-a-kind set's contents below.
(Sorry about the shipping cost, but this thing is a bit bigger than the average vinyl purchase, it's still a GREAT price for this set in this condition.)
Full Contents
- A strong thirteen inch square hard box, featuring a unique 3D lenticular cover image of the iconic Zebra man artwork which was used on a poster advertising the band’s performance at the Avalon Ballroom .
- A 2-LP gatefold sleeve edition of The Psychedelic Sounds of, remastered from a safety master derived from the original tape source. Album one is the mono edition; album two, a remastered version of the original stereo mix and thus different to the version on Sign of the Three Eyed Men. This, as for Easter Everywhere and Bull of the Woods below is the first vinyl reissue from tape sources of the stereo editions for over three decades. Album two is the first ever vinyl pressing of the album in the band’s intended running order.
