Black Randy & The Metrosquad – "I Slept In An Arcade" b/w "Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose"

7" 45 RPM Single | Dangerhouse Records (1979) | Catalog #: KY-724

An absolute holy grail of First-Wave L.A. Punk / KBD history. Issued in 1979 on the legendary Dangerhouse label, this is an authentic original first pressing complete with the iconic fold-out picture sleeve and lyric insert.

Condition-wise, finding early Dangerhouse 7"s in this state is next to impossible.
