Jefferson Airplane released their second studio album "Surrealistic Pillow" in February 1967 on RCA Victor Records. It is noted for being the first album with Grace Slick on lead vocals and is on many lists of the greatest recordings of the era. It includes two seminal hit singles "Somebody To Love" and "White Rabbit." The album peaked at No. 3 on the charts and includes uncredited guitar work by Jerry Garcia on several tracks, although he is credited on the cover as the band's "Spiritual Advisor."
This very rare Mono copy of (LPM-3766) is from the First Pressing and is in good condition for a 54-year-old record. The cover still has its original Factory Shrink Wrap but does show some wear but is still VG+. It is in better shape than the pictures show because the cloud-like lines are dust under the shrink wrap and not on the sleeve. Please see the pictures. The disc test plays without any skips but does have some static and I rate it VG. It was recorded by engineer Dave Hassinger at RCA Victor's Music Center Of The World studio in Hollywood and this copy was pressed at the RCA Records plant in Hollywood. The Side One dead wax is etched TPRM-4892-1S H except the H which is stamped.
This album comes with a high quality Anti-Static Round Bottom Inner Sleeve to hold the vinyl disc and a sturdy 3 mil. polyethylene Archival Quality Outer Sleeve.
Free shipping is included in the special corrugated album mailer seen in the last picture.
This vintage 12" vinyl album has been sitting upright on a shelf in climate controlled storage for the past 54 years. It has not been played in decades other than a quick test spin for this sale which found no skips or obvious flaws. Like all used records it should be cleaned and wiped with an anti-static brush to minimize the occasional pops that are part of playing vinyl albums. Buyers should note that this is a well-cared for but used record and it will have some minor imperfections.
