Description
USA 1st pressing 1974 on Island Records with sunset / palm tree labels.
I won't kvell on and on about Nico here (see the copy of her Marble Index album I have on offer if you want to read some blather) but this is one of the central three or four Nico albums, and it's very nice to have the first US pressing of it don't you think?
The band includes Nico, Eno, Phil Manzanera, and John Cale...so half Roxy Music and half Velvets. I'd call that a supergroup. Their version of "The End" is irreplacable, and you'll never hear The Doors' version quite the same way afterwards.
The album's in very nice shape: I listened through on a pair of Stax headphones and i heard an album pristine all the way through, with the exception of the lead-in to Side A Cut 1, which has some surface noise. So NM- on balance.
The sleeve is as you see it, with a small sticker and a cut-out notch; otherwise very light wear. NM-
