Description

This is the original UK stereo issue, with the red & plum Atlantic labels and the earliest A//1 B//1 matrices and 1-1-3 1-1-2 stampers of the first press!

The second album from MC5 was recorded at GM Studios, Detroit between March & October 1969 & released in early 1970. After the release of their first album 'Kick Out The Jams' in early 1969 the band had been dropped by Elektra after a controversy over US stores not stocking the album. The band were signed by Atlantic and under producer Jon Landau they spent 5 months recording a studio album. The new sound did not go over well with fans and the band were not happy with Landau's production either. Since its release several tracks have become proto-punk classics, including covers by the Damned & Motorhead!

  The MacNeill Press Ltd fully laminated sleeve is intact & in EX condition, with some light corner/edge wear & light laminate rubbing/creasing on the front cover and some laminate lifting along the spine of the cover. The spine is intact and fully readable, except for a small crease in USA, the plain company inner is intact & in EX condition.   The record is in visually EX condition, with only a few faint sleeve removal hairlines & a couple of small needle marks/scuffs visible on each side. The labels are in EX condition, clean & bright with evidence of a couple of faint spindle markings on each side.   The sound reproduction is EX, still clear & precise throughout with no loud hiss or crackle & definately no skips, sticks or jumps, but there is some brief background noise during the run in grooves.
Overall, a really great, loud & clear listen.   The matrix nos. are; 2400016, A//1 stamper 1-1-3, B//1 stamper 1-1-2, This is one of the early copies of the 1st pressing of the original 1970 UK stereo issue of this album!
