Description
Here we have an original first pressing of this psychedelic fuzz-drenched holy grail by this legendary Minneapolis garage band. Only 1,000 of these were pressed. Virtually impossible to find a super clean copy.
The jacket is EX with all seams tight/intact and only the faintest wear. The vinyl is pristine, looks unplayed, EX condition. Probably more a NM but I’m a conservative grader especially with such an album. Play tested and it sounds amazing. See pics.
This is your museum grade top notch collector copy.

The Litter's follow up album to the fabulous godlike ’67 longplayer, 'Distortions', '$100 Fine' ranks as one of its era’s masterpieces. From the ultra-explosive album opener, 'Mindbreaker' (where the Distortions sound now takes on Blue Cheer-like heaviosity) to the LP’s epic finale; a nine-minute, ambitiously retooled 'She’s Not There. In a tradition established on Distortions, The Litter again prove they were the most totally inspired – no, make that totally English-inspired – cover band to invade a US recording studio. $100 Fine includes exceptional covers of Jeff Beck ('Tally Man'), newcomers Procol Harum ('Kaleidoscope'), and last but certainly most obscure, a cover of 'Here I Go Again' by Eire Apparent. But what separates $100 Fine from its predecessor is the emergence of original material, from the ‘Fresh Cream’-style harmonica wailer 'Blues One' to heavier psychedelic fare like '(Under the Screaming Double) Eagle.' For further enticement, we should mention everything is drenched in double-tracked, screaming fuzz from Midwest guitar legend Tom 'Zip' Caplan. Play It Loud!
