PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise.

We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.   We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied.

 THE MC5 

RARE and IN demand!

STILL FACTORY SEALED ::::  never opened - never played 1968 release in THICK gatefold cover ... this is a 49 year old "cut out" which makes us wonder if it is indeed the UNCENSORED "Motherfuckers" version which got deleted soon after it's release. Either way this is the Big E red E;ektra label or Gold Elektra label, both '68 pressings...

Because the item is STILL FACTORY SEALED we cannot guarantee the pressing but to advise it is a '68 release, just which version from '68 ???

 1968 issue in thick gatefold pressing ... NEVER OPENED - NEVER PLAYED!!!

    <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

The mighty FIVE's incinedary attack on the system, with the call out to R-I-S-E.....

Okay, here's the deal, this IS a first '68 pressing that ended very quickly when consumer complaints rolled into corporate Elektra complaining about certain material within. Elektra worried that major retail stores would boycott their label, quickly withdrew this "obscene" version andrep laced it with an edit omitting the offensive text and audio language ...

Should include the original "gold" Elektra Records inner sleeve is included

"The MC5 not only talked about revolution, we believed it," guitarist Wayne Kramer recalled. "The part about destroying the government and taking over and shooting it out with the pigs and all that--that didn't work. But the other part about the concept of possibilities, the revolution of ideas--that has changed the world."

Indeed, the power of those ideas remains undiminished on the group's greatest album, its 1968 debut, "Kick Out the Jams."

"When the Detroit uprising jumped off, we thought the beginning of the end had arrived, and we were busy planning for the 'post-revolutionary construction' which would start with the victory of the insurrection," MC5 manager John Sinclair reflects -- "But the fantasy ended with the brutal suppression of the slave revolt in the streets and the gun-butts of the National Guard and U.S. Army troops who beat our door down and threatened to shoot us all on the spot." The musicians of the MC5 would later say that they'd always been less interested in fomenting revolution than in being a great rock band. And in the end, it was the MC5's music that was the most revolutionary.

CONDITION:  The thick cover, solid everywhere: STILL FACTORY SEALED ...never opened in 49 years ...there is a deleet cut at top left, otherwise sharp... over the years little dust particles have appeared under the shrink wrapper - it is our experience these fine dust particles will easily wipe away...no issue there - guaranteed!  So this is normally a wear prone cover, and all but an impossible feat to find a completely-clean - here is that survivor- minus the delete . The colors are still bright, No split seams, no bends, no writing ... flat & square ... long ago original discount store sticker on outside of cellophane...   FACTORY SEALED / NEVER OPENED 


                                                                                     

The Vinyl: is all glossy all over, M- TOP COPY  ...a beauty! virtually a killer MINT audio play grade copy;  and with spotless-clean (red) big E Elektra labels ...100% (uncensored) first print!

             

 

      A GREAT ADDITION  TO ANYONE'S COLLECTIBLES!
