Motorhead "Self Titled" black vinyl LP with printed innersleeve.  Released in 1977 on Chiswick Records.  Rare laminated cover with different spellings on rear cover:
1) It reads "kilminster" (instead of "kilmister"); 2) It reads "viborator" (instead of "vibrator"); 3) It reads "keepers on the road" (instead of "keep us on the road"); 4) It reads "train kept a rollin' " (instead of "the train kept a rollin' "); 5) By photos, it reads "lensy" (instead of "lemmy").  Cover is ex- with minor ring impression.  Vinyl is ex+.

Grading is done visibly unless I am unsure of whether it affects play or not; then I will play it to be certain.  I try to be strict and critical as possible to be sure you will be happy with your purchase as I am a collector myself.  Records will be shipped out of their sleeves in record mailers with extra cardboard for protection.  Records are bagged and the vinyl is in a white dust sleeve.  If you win more than one item please wait for my invoice; I will gladly combine shipping.  Please ask all questions before bidding.  Thanx and please check my other punk, powerpop and hardcore auctions!  I sell similar items on Discogs under the same seller name; look me up!
