This is the Super-rare BLUE SECOND PRESSING (CENSORED) of Vancouver Punk legends D.O.A.'s EP " Triumph of the Ignoroids " released on Friends Records in 1978 with the rare blue and white cardboard picture sleeve with a censored picture of Margaret Trudeau (wife of then Canada Prime Minister Pierre-Elliot Trudeau) who was shown exposing her genitalia on the first pressing, a censored picture of Rod Stewart and his bandmates (you could see Rod's face on the first pressing, not on this one) and the word F**k censored on the cover (It wasn't on the first pressing) and the band's copyright info on the back! This second pressing (as well as the first) also feature these messages etched in the dead wax of the vinyl " The Pointed Sticks are "Out of Luck" " and " Cause D.O.A. is "The Real Thing" " and number 3462 (only the first two pressings have this number). Only 1 000 COPIES of this RARE second pressing were ever made. E.P. was recorded on June 23 1978 at the first Georgia Straight Battle of the Bands, which featured D.O.A. and the Pointed Sticks (D.O.A. won!). By then, D.O.A. was: Joe S**thead on guitar and vocals, bass player Randy Rampage (who also sang for Canadian speed-metallers Annihilator and who is now back in D.O.A. since 2001) and drummer Chuck Biscuits (who also played for Black Flag, Samhain, Circle Jerks, Social Distortion, Danzig, the Descendents and so many other punk legends! Track listing: 1. Nazi Training Camp 2. Want some Bondage 3. Rich B**ch 4. Let's f**k In the dead wax of this record, you can read the following messages: "The Pointed Sticks are "Out of Luck"", "Cause D.O.A.'s "The Real Thing"", "3462 A R" and "3462 B R R", proving it to be an original! This album was released on the legendary Vancouver Label Friends Records, which was VERY D.I.Y. cause they re-used surplus record jackets they obtained from other record labels. They printed over the original jackets with black ink, turned them inside out and pasted their covers on the other side. It was so neatly done, most people didn’t knew that! Record and Jacket in MINT CONDITION (SEE PICTURE) The story of the famous Margaret Trudeau picture on the first pressing is special. In 1977, when her marriage with Pierre Elliott Trudeau was starting to dissolve, she was invited to see the Rolling Stones when they played a surprise gig at the famous El Mocambo. She wore a sexy skirt and left her husband and panties home, which says a lot about her intentions! She partied all night with the Rolling Stones. At the party, she signed some autographs, which is what she is doing on the pcicture, but that particular picture caught her upskirt and showed the nasty little girl that she was! Someone took a picture and that photo got a lot of play in Canada and elsewhere and became a major factor in Pierre and Margaret’s divorce in 1984. This second "censored" pressing of 1 000 with a white and blue sleeve has the part between Margaret’s legs covered up (fear of a lawsuit) and D.O.A. sold them on tour in the midwest, on the east coast and in Canada. A third black and white "censored" pressing of 1 000 with a hard black and white sleeve, the part between Margaret’s legs covered up and NO band copyright info was made without the band knowing it. It was discovered later and the band gave many of them to independent distributors on the west coast who distributed it themselves. This censored second pressing is almost as rare as the first pressing, especialy in such good condition cause, like I said before, most were sold on tour and bought bu punk rockers who didn't necessarily take care of their records. DON'T MISS YOUR CHANCE! This is a must-have for any serious D.O.A., Vancouver or Canadian punk collector! Buyer to pay shipping. Also please take a look at my other auctions :) Please Note that I sell to ANYBODY willing to pay (no country-discrimination here!) and I won't charge an arm and a leg for shipping. You'll pay exact shipping charges. Me too, I hate those people who ask more money for "handling" or "packing" or "their time". I do the work by myself and with a smile and I recycle envelopes and boxes and use brown bags for packing and I pack well :) I treat my customers the way I like to be treated!
