Van Halen

"Looney Tunes" PROMO EP

Warner Bros Records PRO705 1978 12" 33rpm (USA)

This EP was issued as a promotional item, in advance of the first Van Halen album's release and was distributed to radio station staff, the music press and selected music industry V.I.P.'s. It was not made available to the general public. One side of the special red vinyl features Elmer Fudd wearing a Warner Bros hat and reads "Looney Tunes, Merrie Melodies". The reverse side lists the songs. Both the record and the die-cut sleeve have the ORIGINAL Van Halen logo that was ONLY used on this promo record. Few were made, and most are long gone. EP was withdrawn because of the unauthorized use of the "Elmer Fudd" picture label.This is THE 1st Van Halen vinyl.

A Note About Shipping To The U.S.
We are located in Canada, but have registered ourselves on eBay.com instead of eBay.ca because it gives us significantly better global exposure.  The problem with this is that eBay wants us to charge shipping appropriate to US, where media mail and other options make for fairly reasonable delivery costs. We tried it for a while but ended up losing money on shipping or having to cancel the orders because we couldn't afford to ship for those rates. To manage this we have set the US shipping to run a calculator based on an American location (we chose Plattsburgh as fairly close) and charging according to UPS pricing.  This avoids the cancellation issue, but appears to the buyer to be a prohibitive shipping cost and misrepresents the shipping as being only expedited. If you give us your postal code we will see if we can offer a more reasonable option, but generally we can get a single LP by air to most places in the continental US for $11, a few bucks less for ground.
Thanks for shopping Sir Helmitt,
