We dare say this: This is a MOTHER of all Garage/Psych albums. The album represented a radical shift for the Fugs, from the political-activist first album, which could be characterized as folk songs of political protest played in a "garage" way, to this, their second album, which is an all-out electric assault on good taste and burgoisie and retarded establishment (right on, dudes!) . There would NEVER be any so-called New York Rock (Velvets, Patti Smith, Ramones, New York Dolls, Television) had the Fugs not broken that ground first. Derelicts of the world, unite!!!

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            WE GRADE THE VINYL AS NEAR MINT. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)            The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(c)             Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

COVER IS STONE MINT, STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP, AND NOTHING SHORT OF ABSOLUTE PERFECTION, WITHOUT EVEN A HINT OF A FLAW OR DEFECT; A KIND OF BEAUTY YOU ONLY GET TO SEE ONCE IN A LIFETIME.
