Vintage punk lp: THE RESIDENTS - Mole Show - Live at the Roxy, Oct 30 1982 - Ralph Records/Roxy/Sonic Arts 001; 2nd pressing (see below), and lacking the insert; released in 1983.

This is the second pressing of this recording which was termed the "official" version, following the limited release of the first pressing which the Cryptic Corporation claimed was a bootleg (the "unofficial" version). This was done as media hype to garner interest in the recording prior to release to make people think there was demand for the recording from sources other than the Cryptic Corporation themselves, which made the public believe that the LP was obviously highly desirable and definitely worthy of release.
This second pressing features cover art printed direct onto card, rather than the printed paper cover glued onto the card sleeve of the first pressing. The cardboard is white when you look inside.

Condition: VG+/VG+ (vinyl has minor-to-moderate scuffing and a couple of heavier scuffs which don't seem to affect play - still plays EX throughout; jacket has several minor stress-wrinkles along edges/spine, several small cover spots, and moderate rubbing to extremities).
