Bob Dylan Let Me Die In My Footsteps pre-TMOQ 1971 LP

Popo Productions very rare historic genesis of Trade Mark Of Quality

The following is a transcript from a dedicated website:

This is the original 1971 release from the USA Label 'POPO Productions'. POPO was a predecessor to the famous TMOQ Label. This is one of the earliest full printed covers, and one of the earliest gatefolds. It is printed in black ink on a white cover. The front is a nearly full cover photo from 1961. The back contains five additional early 60's photos, along with track listing, and the release date of August 1971. Inside the gatefold are 11 other photos. The vinyl on this copy is black with full printed labels. This is a highly sought after title because of it's rarity, history, and gatefold packaging... not because of sound quality. The sound is only fair.

I purchased this from a San Francisco record specialist dealer, Robin Cohn, back in late 1971 or early 1972. Robin ran a record shop in Haight – Ashbury for some time, until a spate of armed robberies closed him down. He then moved into dealing pretty much exclusively with TMOQ product. I purchased this album along with a number of other very early TMOQ items from him. The vinyl is in excellent condition as the album has only ever been played a handful of times. Because the sleeve is fairly flimsy it has not fared as well as other albums in my collection (despite the fact that it has been in a pretty solid protective PVC sleeve for at least the last 30 years) – I think you can get a good idea of the overall condition from the photographs.

If you are a TMOQ collector, your collection is incomplete without this sought after rarity.

May interest collectors of rare UK & US original lp, psych , prog , rock, blues and R&B as well as fans of rare live & outtakes from TMOQ , TMQ , TAKRL , K&S , WIZARDO , IDLE MIND & various MCV or color vinyl.

I have a no-quibble returns policy so please bid with absolute confidence.

I promise to respect this historic album by packing it well and shipping by insured special delivery. Overseas - by Airsure priority insured service for £10.
