Description
The 1977 Canadian pressing of this seminal record, that was pressed in several countries at the time. As we've said here before, in 1976 the gals weren't getting initial traction here in LA even though the svengali Kim Fowley worked it. Not to be outdone he took the gals to a more forward thinking Japanese audience and they ate it all up. All THAT is in the history books. What THIS is - the greatest gatefold sleeve to ever hold an LP. Legit NM wax with amazing Japanese production; I will say Excellent on the jacket only because there is some very slight ring wear and a faint smudge or two and three initials in blue ink on bottom back, BUT the images are clean, clear, glossy and unfaded. You could frame this. REVISED - I PHOTO'D POORLY: THE JACKET IMAGES ARE SHARP AND CLEAN, NOT BLURRY LIKE MY UNSTEADY HAND CONVEYED HERE!
Note - I photographed several LPs on a bright fall day and on some you can see in the vinyl my reflection and the reflection of some decorative dried up branch things my wife put on the table. Also, some labels and coloring on various jackets may look uneven or faded when comparing front to back, etc. I assure you that everything is uniform and I stand behind all my records. For example some Posh Boy labels look uneven and shaded, but they are in reality clean and unfaded.
Keep in mind I sample all listings on a full Linn Sondek setup and go in LOUD. Mostly original owner/purchased in L.A. in 70’s/80’s from the original Poobah and Aron’s Record Stores in Pasadena and Hollywood. I am releasing my HUGE original punk collection, 100 per month. 100’s of LPs and 7”s remain – check me out! Everything else purchased along the way, including at the back of club tables at places like Raji's, Cathay de Grande, Club Lingerie, Madame Wong's.
