Description

MORE FROM THE WEBSITE LpCoverLover :  Many of the records being listed have great music, performances, stories, etc. but all of these records were collected for their cover art, beautiful design, incredibly strange and odd concepts, interesting packaging and subject.  Thanks for looking!  Please check my other auctions for more private press psychedelic weird offbeat etc. records. 
I'm selling my personal collection of 50 years and will be posting many rare and collectible original pressing LPs.  
ARTIST : LAURA NYRO TITLE : SEASON OF LIGHTS - ADVANCE PROMOTIONAL VERSION LABEL & CATALOG NUMBER : COLUMBIA / JG 34331 FORMAT : 2LP 
COVER CONDITION : EX two separate blank Columbia promo covers, printed only with "AP-1" and "DEMONSTRATION NOT FOR SALE" front & back.  VINYL CONDITION : EX perfect gloss, sparkling clean. looks completely unplayed with only the very faintest surface wisps from storage, not even actual scuffs.
NOTES : totally clean & beautiful original copy of this seriously rare release. originally planned as a 16 track double album, the eventual released was truncated to a 10 track single lp. a very small number of 2lp versions were pressed as promos, and even fewer were made as a special advance pressing promotional version like this one. this very rare version uses a completely different catalog number then the released version (JG 34331 vs. PC 34786) and of course contains 6 tracks not included on the standard release. also, it is clearly one of the very first copies to be pressed from the stamper, as it was made in advance of the actual release and surely pressed in very small numbers. appearing only once before on ebay in the last 10+ years (selling for $564.00 in lesser condition), this is truly the holy grail of laura nyro vinyl collecting, and this is an impossible to beat copy of an impossible to find release.
This is an extremely rare Advance Promotion, 2 LP version of Laura Nyro's 1976 Season of Lights lp. Columbia's original conception for this album is that it would be a 16-track double record set, and created promo pressings of the 2 LP set to promote it. However, by the time it was released, it was a 10-track single LP album.  That makes this 2 LP version the only way to get the songs left off the released version.
A very small number of 2 lp versions were pressed as promos, and even fewer were made as a special advance pressing promotional version like this one. This very rare version uses a completely different catalog number then the released version (JG 34331 vs. PC 34786) and of course contains 6 tracks not included on the standard release.
