Description


MOTÖRHEAD Motörhead (Chiswick Wik 2) Hawkwind RARE UK Original A 2/B 2 MINT!
Original, very early UK second pressing of Motörhead`s eponymous debut album "Motörhead" on Chiswick Records (August 1977). This specific second pressing was released in 1978.
"Rock and roll had never heard the like. Though only a minor chart success, Motörhead patented the group's style: Lemmy's rasping vocal over a speeding juggernaut of guitar, bass, and drums. The lyrical theme was "Don't mess with us" instead of "Don't mess with our hair." Before this, hard rock was about musicianship and exhibitionism. Motörhead, conversely, returned mainstream rock to its most brutal base elements -- no wonder the punks liked them."  - Alex Ogg, allmusic.com
GRADING:

MINT(-) COVER. In pretty much perfect condition! Please see photos for details.
- Unlaminated second-pressing sleeve.
- Very, very light record outline on cover, from storage.
- As an extra feature, this includes a polylined matt black inner sleeve, not available elsewhere.

MINT(-) RECORD that looks practically unplayed. In immaculate condition!
- Play-graded MINT(-) with impeccable audio reproduction.
- Original first issue Chiswick Records labels, with no spindle wear whatsoever.
- The matrix stamps in the run-off grooves read "Wik-2 A 2" and "Wik 2 B 2", respectively.

PLEASE NOTE: Definitely a final upgrade copy for the Motörhead completist, this copy of "Motörhead" can`t be compared with the more-often-than-not substandard vinyl on offer on eBay UK. 
Honestly-graded MINT(-), this record is near-impossible to find in such condition - especially at this bargain price: "True value for money" is the motto here!
