An exceptional, archive-tier promotional copy of The Osmonds’ definitive 1972 hard-rock and heavy psychedelic masterpiece, Crazy Horses. Issued on MGM Records (SE-4851), this scarce industry-exclusive copy features the original clean white "Special Disc Jockey Edition" labels. These were manufactured in highly limited numbers and distributed solely to radio music directors prior to the public release date. Because Crazy Horses is universally celebrated by modern rock collectors and garage-rock enthusiasts as the band's absolute heaviest and most creative album, finding an original clean white label promo copy commands a premium. Deep-Dive Deadwax & Matrix Specifications For serious vinyl archivists, the absolute pedigree of a pressing is found in its deadwax.
