PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.   Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.   We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING   USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.   All Canadian and Overseas shipping ~ Please inquire about rates.

           THE  STOOGES

                                 USA - (Big "E") red ELEKTRA - 70415

The real deal....

1969 original issue = it's 48  years old ! ...

The first flash birth of IGGY POP crawling on his belly like a reptile...the very 1st Stooges....

Everything the peace and love vibe of the '60s wasn't the Stooges 1969 debut record was: dangerous, violent, chaotic, mean-spirited, and sex crazed. Iggy Pop's monotone birthday lament, "1969" ("War across the U.S.A. / Another year for me and you / Another year with nothing to do"), pretty much sums up the band's coldly disaffected outlook. Producer and Velvet Underground second banana John Cale lends the proceedings an appropriately ominous feel, his transformation of the Stooges into V.U. clones on the 10-minute-plus "All Fall Down" are the band's difinitive acid-eating studio trips. Then Iggy Pop and company turn it on with the mind-numbingly ugly-and-great "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and the distortion-drenched "Real Cool Time."

Side A

"1969" – 4:05 "I Wanna Be Your Dog" – 3:09 "We Will Fall" – 10:18 Side B "No Fun" – 5:15 "Real Cool Time" – 2:32 "Ann" – 2:59 "Not Right" – 2:51 "Little Doll" – 3:20

 

CONDITION: The cover: rated VG++ trace of shelf wear, handling crinkle at top right = it's solid all over, the back cover is excellent "EX" )  There are no split seams,  delete drill at top left , no writing ...still colorful  ......On the norm, this HIGHLY wear prone cover is found with a LOT of shelf wear ... so this copy way better....

The vinyl: : rated: VG+(+) to "EX" (excellent) all glossy on both sides, has some visual scuffs over highly shiny surface, vast majority appears clean ...audio is excellent and enjoyable ... both Elektra labels are clean .

   

 

A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTION !
