The Rolling Stones
Some Girls
1st 1978 PRESS

This is the original pressing of the Stones' 1978 release, with the UNCENSORED sleeve...Due to a legal dispute with two ladies, all subsequent pressings of this album have faces of Lucille Ball and Raquel Welch airbrushed and replaced with a monochromatic blur.

Catalogue number: CUN 39108

Matrix endings: A3U (etched)
 Matrix endings: B3U (etched)
Both run-offs have "Sterling TJ" stamped into them.

The Vinyl:
 EXCELLENT!! condition,  just a few very light and wispy marks, which do NOT affect playback.
The only mark of note is a scuff mark to side 1, but this does not affect playback at all.
I have just played her all the way through and turned her up LOUD...Almost zero background noise noticeable...even the run-ins are incredibly quiet!
 Lovely shine and flat as the day she was born.

The Labels:
EX+!
 Bright canary yellow- The Stones' own label.
No writing.
All I can see are just 2 faint traces of spindle marks! That's when angled towards the light and really looking for them...SUPERB.
Bright, clear and all original.
*VERY COLLECTABLE*

The Sleeve:
EX+.
It has the top band in RED, with the title in black & white along with the UNcensored inner. She is in a lovely state too...just light rubbing and knocks to the corners that really is all!!
STRONG & UNCRUSHED SPINE
NO  writing.
NO fading
GLORIOUS
1st printing run.

The Inner:
UNCENSORED
EX-.
 It is the original Garrod & Lofthouse inner in a wonderful state....VIBRANT AND IN GREAT CONDITION!
Does have a small 5cm split to the bottom seam-other than that, she really is perfect.
NO writing
NO FADING
THE First pressing cover artwork featuring Marilyn Monroe, Liza Minelli, Raquel Welch, Farrah Fawcett and Lucy Ball - all of whom sued and were soon removed from the cover.
So, the Stones were forced to replace these images with coloured blocks, some carrying the text:
"PARDON OUR APPEARANCE"
this one doesn't....
***THIS IS THE ORIGINAL UNCENSORED VERSION***

A LOVELY COLLECTABLE PIECE HERE IN SUPERB COMPLETE 1st PRESS CONDITION WITH GREAT SOUND REPRODUCTION TOO!
