Description
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING OF THE LEGENDARY"YELLOW GOAT" LP BY BATHORY! IT HAS BEEN IN MY COLLECTION FOR ABOUT 30 YEARS ,BUT I DON'T LISTEN TO IT ANYMORE ,SO IT'S SOMEONE ELSE'S CHANCE TO OWN THIS LEGENDARY PIECE OF VINYL! IT HAS BEEN PLAYED BUT THE VINYL IS VERY GOOD/NEAR MINT. THE COVER HAS A FEW SCUFF MARKS (SEE PHOTOS). (THERE ARE SOME SHADOWS ON THE PHOTOGRAPHS ,BUT THEY ARE ME) I CAN EASILY SEND MORE PHOTOS IF REQUESTED... AS YOU CAN SEE THE CROSS IS IN THE RUN OUT GROOVE ON ONE SIDE AND THE PENTAGRAM AND 666 ON THE OTHER SIDES RUN OUT GROOVE. I BELIEVE THESE WERE ONLY ON THE 1st PRESSING. THE 2 INSERTS ARE INCLUDED ,BUT FOR SOME REASON ARE FOLDED.. I GENUINELY DON'T KNOW WHY...SORRY.... BUT THEY ARE THERE!! I WILL POST IT REGISTERED OF COURSE! ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS,DON'T HESITATE..( THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS FROM "EXAMINER.COM"'S PIECE ABOUT THE 10 RAREST BLACK METAL ALBUMS.. 9) Bathory – Self-titled “yellow goat” edition, Black Mark Records. Market value: $750-$1,500. This LP is widely considered one of the most collectible black metal LPs in the underground, and thus is it one of the most expensive. This isn't helped by the fact that nobody can agree on how many copies officially exist. Apparently band leader Quorthon didn't like the yellow goat look and destroyed most of them. The subsequent editions featured a black and white cover, but the color edition is assumed to be somewhere between 300 and 1000. Most sources say 1000, but you'll see the “only 200 exist!!!” tag on most eBay auctions, so the answer is likely somewhere in between. Of all the albums to sell for over a grand, this is one probably the most historically important.
