Description

THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION              Burnt Weeny Sandwich            (CDN) Reprise RS 6370

      This is a stone original 1970 Canadian Reprise pressing of The Mothers Of Invention's first post break-up release, "Burnt Weeny Sandwich". Great lp of blended live/studio recordings documenting the latter stage of the original MOI. Bookended by 2 doo-wop numbers. Features "Little House I Used To Live In". Rare find like this as OG Canadian with 20" X 23" 2-Sided poster (which was different from the U.S. issue, and printed in much smaller quantity).  

Dead Wax Info:  Side 1 has ACR - 30975 and the initials TG all etched into the dead wax. Side 2 has ACR - 30976 and the initials TG all etched into the dead wax. Original Canadian Reprise pressing (1970) 

Vinyl Visual Grade:  VG+ and a little better with very good gloss and a few light marks, particularly on Side 2 (from handling). Labels are pristine with no visible marking. Played a couple of times. No More.

Vinyl Play Grade: VG+ and better with GREAT fidelity and a wee bit of noise (as did most Reprise pressings at that time). An excellent listening copy, probably about as good as you will find of this pressing. 

Cover Visual Grade: VG+/NM with great gloss and very minor wear. You will not find a better cover unless sealed. The only flaw is some very minor ring wear. Absolutely gorgeous paste-over cardboard gatefold.  

Comes with VERY RARE original Canadian issue double-sided poster, which was a different shape than the U.S. counterpart. Poster is in VG shape or slightly better with wear in the centre and a 1" tear on one seam. Vinyl comes housed in non-original rice-plastic lined die-cut paper Audiophile style inner.

Hello all. My name is Jamie and I have been collecting records for 40+ years. It is time to trim down my unmanageable inventory. My tastes run all over the sonic map, so there should be something for almost everyone.

ALL records will have been visually inspected under BRIGHT incandescent light with extreme scrutiny.

ALL open records will have been play graded using a Thorens TD 165 turntable and Yamaha amplifier (JBL reference headphones). Treble set high so nothing will be hidden in my grades. My grading is as follows:

M or Mint - NOT USED as there is no such thing as perfection.

NM or Near Mint - No significant markings - sealed or RARELY played.

VG+ - Minimal marking - none of which significantly affects fidelity of lp.

VG - Minimal to modest marking which affects lp but not to the point of distraction.

G - Modest marking but still VERY listenable, depending on your ears.

I WILL NOT SELL ANY LP AT LESS THAN G UNLESS THERE IS SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL VALUE ATTACHED TO THE LP.

ALL COVERS WILL HAVE DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF ALL FLAWS.

I USE PROPER RECORD MAILERS WITH STIFFENERS AND PADDED CORNERS. I HAVE BOUGHT TOO MANY RECORDS ON EBAY WITH DINGED CORNERS FROM INSUFFICIENT PACKAGING. BY PADDING THE CORNERS WITH FOLDED BUBBLE WRAP (WHICH I DO) , YOU CAN BE SURE OF RECEIVING AN LP WITH NO DAMAGE TO THE CORNERS. 

SHIPPING FEES:

Shipping will be $10 U.S. for anywhere in the U.S. as long as the weight is under 500 grams after packaging.

ON PACKAGES OVER 500g, PLEASE WAIT FOR PROPER INVOICE. MOST LPS CAN BE SHIPPED AS UNDER 500 GRAMS.  

Other countries (including Canada), please refer to the Canada Post rates which should be available on the ebay shipping details within the listing.

Returns accepted within 14 days (and with good reason).

I AM A REASONABLE PERSON. I WILL ONLY CHARGE FOR ACTUAL SHIPPING, AND NONE OF THE PACKAGING COSTS. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE BOUGHT ITEM, PLEASE WORK WITH ME TO FIND A SOLUTION THAT WILL BE TO YOUR LIKING. thanks for this
