Description

The Facts of Life - S/T or Tell Your Parents About...(Sevens International)

Cover is NM with no split seams; very heavy cardboard - Vinyl is VG++

Here I am offering an exceptionally rare garage LP from Dallas, TX that has never been offered on eBay!  This is one amazing record and mentioned in the Acid Archives as "exceedingly rare and hard to put an accurate price on". This one is full of garage versions of some popular tunes of the time. The first cut is an original by local icon Ron Price and is drenched in reverb and some amazing organ and blistering guitar. Some of the other songs that included are: Evil Ways, Let Me Down Easy, Make Love To Me, Reflections of My Life, etc. The liner notes on the back of the album pretty much some it all up:

"This album could very well become a dust collector. Or a collector's item. First albums are awkward things. It's a time when a group has to make a statement - to see where they stand. You can't tell where you're goin' 'til you know where you've been. It's a basic fact of life that first albums mark a turning point in any group's future. In this album, six young men, all from Dallas, take four years of hard work and put it on a permanant basis. Between these covers are the Facts of Life. - Doug Stanglin"

Take a listen to "All Strung Out" a Ron Price original, Evil Ways, and Let Me Down Easy.  The clips have not been modified. What you hear is what you get.
