SIGNED BY RON RUSSELL MAEL SPARKS WHOMP THAT SUCKER 1ST U.S. PRESS LP ULTRASONIC

$

75

Description

You are looking at a first 1981 U.S. pressing of Whomp That Sucker signed by Sparks signed with lots of bizarre messages written by both Ron and Russell Mael. I purchased this LP directly from a studio engineer who worked on this album back in 1981 and these messages were written to her. LP ultrasonically cleaned and placed in a new poly inner sleeve.

Vinyl Condition: Visually EX. Very glossy and clean with faint, superficial sleeve scuffs seen under a bright light. Play tested and play grades NM-  to NM. Sounds wonderful from start to finish. Superb, atmospheric pressing sonics. Very clean sound with only the faintest of low background noise heard in quieter passages. 

Outer Sleeve (cover) condition: Fair or worn. It has a chunk of its right edge torn off but it is not dirty or soiled nor does it show edge or ring wear. Very clean torn outer sleeve and lyric inner sleeve with significant tear on righthand side. Messages and autographs written in pen. 

Matrix runout #s: AFL1-4091 A -1 1 AJ JA / AFL1-4091 B-1 JA AJ
