Description
THE VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO - VERVE V-5008. RELEASED IN MAY OF 1966 THIS LP INITIALLY DID NOT SELL EVRY WELL YET WENT ON TO BECOME ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL RECORDINGS EVER. POSSIBLY HAMPERED BY THE WEIRD BANANA ART COVER BY ANDY WARHOL AS WELL AS THE RATHER UNUSUAL MUSICAL CONTENT. THE COVER HAS ALSO BECOME ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS IN RECORD ART HISTORY AND INSPIRED THE COVER FOR THE WARHOL CATALOGUE RAISONNE (PUBLISHED IN 2009 AND INCOMPLETE).
CONSIDERING THIS RECORD DIDN'T SELL VERY WELL, THE COVER BECAME A HEADACHE FOR VERVE AND HAD THREE SEPARATE ITINERATIONS JUST FROM THE GIT GO: THE FIRST HAD A VERY VISIBLE ERIC EMERSON PICTURED ON THE BACK COVER. THE SECOND HAD A LARGE ("LAW SUIT") STICKER BLOCKING THAT IMAGE WHILE THE COVER WAS ALTERED BY THE ART DEPT. INTO THIS THIRD VERSION WITH EMERSON AIRBRUSHED OUT. THIS IS ALSO THE LAST MONO VERSION TO FEATURE THE PEELABLE BANANA BEFORE THE NEXT VERSION THAT DIDN'T PEEL AND WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN MONO.
THIS HAS THE GATEFOLD COVER AT A NICE (CONSERVATIVE) VG+ . THE BANANA IS INTACT WITH A SMALL TEAR ON THE STEM WHICH LOOKS LIKE IS WAS REMOVED AND STUCK BACK ON. THERE IS SOME LIGHT RUBBING TO THE FRONT WHICH IS TYPICAL OF THIS COVER. THERE IS A BIT OF WEAR ALONG THE OPENING. THE B/C IS VERY CLEAN. THE SPINE HAS THE PRINT A LITTLE MIS-ALIGNED AND SOME MINOR AGE SPOTS/WEAR. THE TOP/BOTTOM SEAMS ARE NICE. THE INSIDE G/F IS NEAR MINT.
THE MONO VINYL IS NEAR MINT, WHICH IS AMAZING! THE VINYL IS NOT CONSEVATIVELY GRADED. IT IS NEAR MINT. LABEL SIDE ONE IS NM. LABEL SIDE TWO HAS A SPINDLE MARK AND IS VG++. MATRIX SIDE 1 READS: V5008 J CUI ((?)) WG 558 NJ 1C. SIDE 2 READS: V5008 SIDE2 MG 559 12 ((?)). THE QUESTION MARKS ARE OURS. THERE IS NO REV . THIS BEING THE LATEST MONO PRESSING THIS DISC IS LIGHTER THAN THE ORIGINAL PRESSING AND HAS NO LABEL PERIMETER "DEEP GROOVE". THIS MUST BE ONE OF THE LAST MONO PRESSINGS FROM 1967. THIS HAS THE ORIGINAL VERVE ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE. GREAT MONO COPY AND A VERY INTERESTING PRESSING!!!!!!
