Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end.

We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over +21,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

- While this particular 1968 first issue, soon to be banned/withdrawn contained the forbidden lyrics "Kick Out The Jams Motherfuckers" - the also withdrawn inner sleeve inciting turning the then ('68) government upside-down... infuriating the establishment to no-end.
- The original owner of this highly collectible rarity was able to have drummer DENNIS THOMPSON (R.I.P.) sign the inner gate-fold along with bassist Michael Davis.
- Direct quote from the original owner:
- "upon my mother reading the revolutionary inner sleeve,she -became unglued - went nuts- and peeled away every bit she could" - including most of Michael Davis signature, yet somehow DENNIS THOMPSON bold signature remained (SEE PHOTOS)
-
- "Kick Out The Jams Motherfuckers"
- All in all an artifact from times door past... including the inner gatefold signed AND by their own hand enraged reactionary establishment censorship
A SPECIAL UNIQUE COLLECTIBLE LISTEN UP!
For those who have interest...here's the copy you potentially have been waiting for:
UNCENSORED VOCALS ORIGINAL 1968 FIRST PRINT in thick gatefold cover.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
The legendary 1968 anti-establishment MC-5 and their message to the youth culture. Warning: this album contains possible offensive beliefs and language, such as the word "motherfuckers" shouted out not only in the audio but stated in the liner notes as well. On the "GOLD" Elektra Records label of '68. Advise: Keep this record from the sight of those who appose to its content, otherwise things could get ugly - or worse.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
The mighty FIVE's incendiary 1968 attack on the system with the call out to R-I-S-E.....
Much wanted notorious original '68 pressing that ended very quickly when consumer complaints rolled into the corporate Elektra office complaining about offensive material on one of their catalog items. Elektra concerns in major retail stores boycotting their label, quickly withdrew the "obscene" record version and replaced it with an edit omitting the offensive text and audio language from the record, and all was right again in the world of "Spook Reaves" and fellow flag-waving establishment cohorts 'saving' the world in suppressing such alarming content.
The original Elektra Records inner sleeve is included
"The MC5 not only talked about revolution, we believed it," guitarist Wayne Kramer recalled. "The part about destroying the government and taking over and shooting it out with the pigs and all that--that didn't work. But the other part about the concept of possibilities, the revolution of ideas--that has changed the world."
Indeed, the power of those ideas remains undiminished with the group's notorious album, "Kick Out the Jams."
MC5 manager John Sinclair reflects -- "When the Detroit uprising jumped off, we thought the beginning of the end had arrived, and we were busy planning for the 'post-revolutionary construction' which would start with the victory of the insurrection, But the fantasy ended with the brutal suppression of the slave revolt in the streets and the gun-butts of the National Guard and U.S. Army troops who beat our door down and threatened to shoot us all on the spot." The musicians of the MC5 would later say that they'd always been less interested in fomenting revolution than in being a great rock band. And in the end, it was the MC5's music that was the most revolutionary.
