MC5 –ORIG PRESSING - KICK OUT THE JAMS – GOLD LABEL
Hello, you are bidding on the original release, Elektra’s first pressing of the infamous & influential Motor City’s MC5’s initial lp. “Kick Out the Jams.” Subsequent pressings of this milestone lp have a red label and later a butterfly label. This is the gatefold release and includes the unedited notes of John Sinclair in red lettering. There are 8 songs in total and includes the original & uncensored song introduction to “Kick Out The Jams.” (No “brothers and sisters” here.) This lp was recorded live at Detroit’s Grande Ballroom on the Zenta New Year on October 30-31, 1968.
I am the second owner of this lp. My brother was the original owner. We bought it as soon as it was released. It is Elektra Stereo #EKS 74042, USA pressing, with matrix numbers # EKS-74042-A and EKS-74042-B. Very heavy card stock was used for this gatefold sleeve, which has a very wide spine measuring approx. ¼ inch. It is a heavier vinyl. The condition of the cover and the lp itself are rather exceptional. The lp is close to pristine and immaculate and has one light scratch on Side 1. It plays fine due to the heavy pressing on the heavier vinyl and the loudness of the music. The rating for this cover & lp would be EXCELLENT and it plays better than that. We have always taken care of the lps which we have. It has always been stored vertically and away from water. It has an audiophile record cover.
Shipping on this lp within the US is Priority with a signature/return requested. Shipping to Canada is $10.00 and $15.00 elsewhere.
