John Lennon/Yoko Ono Two Virgins Original UK Release

$

123

This auction is for one of the most sought after rock and roll records of all time, "Unfinished Music No. 1 - Two Virgins". This was John Lennon & Yoko Ono's first album of 3 experimental albums. This album was released November 11, 1968, and is the UK Release, by Apple Records, Made in "Merrie England". It originally came wrapped in a brown paper covering to cover up the "obscene" nudity. The record and sleeve are in excellent condition and will make a great addition to any LP or Beatles collection. There is some slight yellowing around the edges of the jacket, some very minor ring wear, and several very minor creases along the spine. There are a few very light scuffs on the vinyl on side 1, and a few very light scratches on side 2. This is a .99 cent No Reserve auction, so here's a chance to get this very collectible record for a great price!

The cover provoked an outrage, prompting distributors to sell the album in a brown wrapper. Copies of the album were impounded as obscenity in several jurisdictions. Lennon wryly commented that the uproar seemed to have less to do with the explicit nudity, and more to do with the fact that the pair were rather unattractive. Nevertheless, the taboo breaking album cover was perhaps the first time that any male celebrity of any consequence had exposed himself so thoroughly to the public.
