All records are from my personal collection... I am forced to downsize and as silly as it may sound, I truly want the pieces of my collection to go to people that will enjoy having them. Good luck, bidding!

Up for auction today is a great vinyl LP album.

Artist: L.A. Guns

Album: L.A. Guns (Self-Titled First Album)

Catalog #: 422 834  144-1

L.A. Guns is the debut album of the band L.A. Guns. This album was released in 1988. Following the success of the second album, Cocked & Loaded, this album reached gold status in the US.


Despite appearing in the band photo and album credits, Steve Riley was not the drummer for the band during the recording of this album, having replaced his predecessor Nickey "Beat" Alexander between the recording and release of the album; also many of the songs were co-written by the band's previous vocalist Paul Black, although he was not credited on the album itself.


The album includes several remakes, including "Hollywood Tease" (previously done by singer Phil Lewis's old band Girl), and "Shoot For Thrills" (previously done by bass guitarist Kelly Nickels's old band Sweet Pain).

A note on condition...

I’m not a pro or a record store owner, but I have been collecting for a long time and have done my best to describe the condition.

Condition: 

Record: This album was not play-tested, only visually graded as I am listing over 10,000 albums and cannot do every one. 

I would say EXCELLENT to NEAR MINT as there are no noticeable surface scratches, marks or defects. I do not believe I played this album very much as I listened to alot of cassettes back then.

Jacket: VERY GOOD to EXCELLENT. Light surface scratching from storage. Minimal ring wear on back and/or front. No splits of any kind - extremely minor edgewear.

Sleeve: Graphics Photos Lyrics Type

All in all, this is a great LP -- described and graded visually -- at a remarkable starting price.

Again, please remember that I am not an expert but I try to grade very fairly.  I visually grade all records. Please keep in mind that some of these records/vinyl are pre-owned and over 30 or 40 years old.  Some may have some slight surface noise and/or a crackle and/or other imperfections and will NOT sound like a “new” record, unless listed as mint/unopened.
