Please understand this is a new vinyl but it is not shrink wrapped as the album was autographed and hand numbered. It is #82/350. It’s a rare collectors item that was received through Kickstarter. I was a backer and this is one of my unplayed copies.


The vinyl is the rare Smoke and Mirrors version.


This album also comes with a cool POSTER .


Comes from a smoke free home.

There are no returns with this item.

Thanks and enjoy!


This vinyl was issued from a Kickstarter campaign to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the original release.

From the Kickstarter campaign:


25 years ago, Frontline recording artist Tourniquet entered Rumbo Recorders Studio in Canoga Park, CA to record our 4th full length album. With producer Jim Faraci at the recording/engineering/mixing helm, whose previous credits ranged from Ratt: Out of the Cellar, to Poison: Look What the Cat Dragged In, to Trouble: Run to the Light, to Crowbar - we knocked out 11 tracks and called the album "Vanishing Lessons". The album remained popular for the next 25 years, and became a Tourniquet classic, cranking out four #1 radio singles: the iconic title track, Bearing Gruesome Cargo, Acidhead, and Twilight. 


Which brings us to to 2019: time to bring this classic to vinyl!


About the cover: This is a Vaudeville poster from the 1930's promoting the greatest magician who ever lived - Harry Houdini. It illustrates what can happen when we allow "the world" to control us - like a ship with no rudder. The monster is the evil and sin that so easily entangles us - providing a graphic example and good reason to keep our eyes on the Lord. "Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles". Hebrews 12:1
