Still in original tear-away baggy w/180gram decal/hype-sticker! 1 of only 100 made exclusively through the “Classic Records” website. Both record and sleeve are in EX condition!
Apparently only 100 of these 180gram blue vinyl versions were pressed as part of an initial test-run, then put up for sale to whomever ordered them off the “Classic Records” website. Shortly after, “Classic...” decided to go with a 200gram blue vinyl version for a wider release (a limited edition of 500 copies total). Those who purchased the 180gram version were then sent “180gram” hype-stickers to adhere to their album covers....
From The Steve Hoffman Forum:
“There are good versions of it (K.O.B.) on blue vinyl, it's the “Classic Records” versions. There are two versions, a 180gram and 200gram version. The 180gram version is actually more rare than the 200gram version. “Classic” used blue vinyl for the test pressing of the 180gram cut. They had the blue pellets, so they decided to run about 100 of them. I know this because I bought the 180gram version, it was only available through “Classic Record's” website. When they reneged on limiting the blue vinyl edition, and released a 200gram version, they actually sent an apology letter. It included a decal that read something like "Classic Records 180gram". You were supposed to put it on your copy...”Classic” considered them test pressings, then decided to just sell them....The 200gram was limited to 500 copies.”
