Description

This is a MINT CONDITION FACTORY SEALED COPY of the album with the original Flame Cover. No damage at all to corners or edges. No warping. Has been very carefully stored for the past 30 years. It doesn't get better than this! This is a very rare find! I've been told there is an insert with a concert tour schedule but I'm not about to open it to find out. Since it is extremely hard to replace, I would suggest shipping insurance if you are the winning bidder.

Here's the info on the cover:

Lynard Skynard released its sixth album, Street Survivors, on October 17, 1977. Three days later, a privately chartered plane carrying the band between shows in Greenville, South Carolina and Baton Rouge, Louisiana crashed outside of Gillsburg, Mississippi. Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines and his sister Cassie, one of the group's backing vocalists, died in the crash; the remaining members were injured. Lynyrd Skynyrd disbanded after the airplane tragedy. On the original pressing of the cover of Street Survivors was a photograph of the band engulfed in flames. MCA Records, out of courtesy and good judgment, withdrew the sleeve and replaced it with a cover of the band striking a similar pose against a plain black background.
