Description
This may be your last chance to get this record SEALED for less than $2400.
I already had a later edition of this ep when I acquired this copy nearly 30 years ago, so I never had need to open it.
Barely even a wrinkle to the sleeve.
Will combine shipping - $1 ea per extra for lps / cds / k7, $.50 ea per 7"
I ship carefully and quickly.
Thanks and have a great day!

The legendary Brick Wall sleeve of the very first Greg Ginn SST release.
Enjoy!! On Sep-02-12 at 23:01:27 PDT, seller added the following information:
The recording was financed by Greg Ginn with proceeds he had earned from his mail-order ham radio electronics business, Solid State Transmitters (SST).[2] Through Spot, then an apprentice engineer whom Ginn had already known from living in Hermosa Beach, California, the band found Media Art, a studio that had recently completed construction.[3]
The recording was originally supposed to be released through Bomp! Records, but the band felt that the label was taking too long to put the record out. Eventually the band took the master rights back, and Ginn put some more earnings from his ham radio business, located a pressing plant in the phone book, and co-founded SST Records with Black Flag bassistChuck Dukowski, borrowing the label's name from his business.[2]
It is commonly misconstrued that Spot was the producer and engineer of Nervous Breakdown. In his sleeve notes for the 1982 outtakes anthology Everything Went Black, Spot pointed out that as an apprentice engineer, his involvement in the sessions was limited to setting up microphones during the tracking sessions, and doing rough mixes for the band to hear.[3]
The initial pressing of Nervous Breakdown was 300 copies. Black Flag were able to use the record as "a badge of legitimacy" (according to Dukowski) to begin getting live gigs in the Los Angeles area.[3]
Four other songs were completed during the recording, "Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie", "I Don't Care", "White Minority" and "No Values", which were later released as part of the Everything Went Black compilation album.
