The Strokes - Is This It

Very rare deleted vinyl plus promotional plastic bag and badge!

I've listed this item as used, but it's only been played once. The condition of the record is excellent. There is a very slight crease in the top left-hand corner of the cover.

Is This It is one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the 2000s. It was ranked 89th in a 2005 survey held by British television's Channel 4 to determine the 100 greatest albums of all time. In 2003, the album was ranked number 367 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. In June 2005, the album was ranked number 100 on Spin's list of the "100 Greatest Albums, 1985-2005". In July 2006, the album was ranked 48 on The Observer's list of 'The 50 Albums That Changed Music.' In November 2007 Q magazine rated it at 21 in "21 albums that changed music" In addition to being ranked among the greatest albums of all time, the non-U.S. version of the album cover has been ranked as one of the greatest album covers of all time. The U.S. cover is different; it features a photo of particle collisions in the Big European Bubble Chamber.

Is This It has sold one million units in the US as of January 2006, yet is still merely certified gold there.

In the Rolling Stone June 2008 edition, the closing track "Take It or Leave it" was named number 71 on their list of 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time
