Description
TWO COPIES OF THE Three Dog Night “Hard Labor” LP
by ABC ABC Dunhill Records
A RARE BANNED BIRTH COVER EDITION COPY and A CENSORED COVER EDITION COPY
1. RARE BANNED BIRTH COVER EDITION COPY
THREE DOG NIGHT - HARD LABOR, ABC/ DUNHILL DSD 50168, LP, FIRST PRESSING, W/ SOME LIGHT WEAR GATEFOLD, DIE CUT COVER W/ MEDICAL FOLDER INTACT (1974)
THE VINYL RECORD IS A VG + W/ FULL GLOSS, JUST A FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS THAT DO NOT EFFECT THE SOUND QUALITY. THE LABELS ARE VERY NICE & CLEAN.
THE COVER IS GOOD+ TO VG W/ THE MEDICAL FOLDER STILL INTACT. IT WAS MADE TO BE REMOVED SO STILL BEING PRESENT AND ATTACHED IS A REAL PLUS FOR THIS RARE LP!
PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAILS.
THIS IS A VERY RARE COPY THAT DEPICTED A GROTESQUE HUMANOID FIGURE GIVING BIRTH TO A RECORD.
EVEN WITH ATTEMPTS TO HIDE IT IN ITS FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPED FORM, IT WAS EVENTUALLY CONSIDERED TOO GRAPHIC AND CONTROVERSIAL.
THIS LEAD TO A REVISED VERSION WITH A LARGE BAND-AID PLACED OVER THE BIRTHING SCENE.
A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF THESE EVER GOT OUT TO YHE PUBLIC BEFORE THE BAND-AID STICKER OR EMBOSSED BAND-AID COVERS WERE RELEASED.
A VERY RARE COVER !
2. THREE DOG NIGHT - HARD LABOR, ABC/ DUNHILL DSD 50168, LP 1974
CENSORED PRESSING W/ PRINTED BAND-AID OVER ORIGINAL BIRTH SCENE. THIS VERSION DID NOT COME WITH THE REMOVABLE MEDICAL FOLDER.
THE VINYL RECORD IS SEVERELY SCRATCHED AND UNPLAYABLE. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN BUT SCRATCHED AS WELL. IT ALMOST SEEMS AS IF A DISGRUNTLED PARENT WENT AFTER THIS COPY!
THE COVER IS VERY WORN AND BASICALLY LESS THAN ACCEPTABLE. THE MEDICAL FOLDER WAS DONE AWAY WITH BY ABC DUNHILL AND WAS REPLACED BY A BAND-AID.
PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAILS.
A GREAT ADDITION TO THE RARE COPY AND A KEY PIECE OF HISTORY FOR THE TOPIC OF DISCUSSION.
A VERY RARE DUO OF ALBUMS!
