Bruce Springsteen LIVE AT THE BOTTOM LINE 8/15/75 NM
ULTRA RARE: This is one of the few available world-wide !
This is the original 1st pressing with photo on cover with and blank/white labels. Released in 1976, it is the first of five Springsteen non-official LPs to be released.
Vinyl is near 95% perfection. Jacket is NM also, with one inch split on top and three inch split at bottom of jacket sleeve. Slightly off white due to being 48 years old !
Billboard Magazine reps were in audience, and the rest is history !
Matrix / Runout (A-Side Runout Etching): Side 1 A-1
Matrix / Runout (B-Side Runout Etching): Side 2 B-2
Matrix / Runout (C-Side Runout Etching): Side 3 C-3
Matrix / Runout (D-Side Runout Etching): Side 4 D-4
Thick black 200g vinyl with plain white labels.
Matrix numbers are hand-scratched:
The vinyl is thicker and heavier than those of other related titles. The vinyl is near 200g weight, which is categorized as "heavy vinyl pressing" by industry standard. Also, it sounds better than the other recordings with more high end and cleaner instrumental separation. There is some concomitant surface noise, which adds realism to this live recording. Less edited and retains some DJtalks that were removed or edited out on other releases.
(Listen to the opening remarks before Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out on Side 1 and right before Rosalita on Side 4). For these reasons, and because of being the first
legendary Bottom Line '75 recording, this pressing is the most sought-after and highly prized recording of all the Springsteen bootlegs.
Note: "Rosalita" in particular is amazing.
You can hear Bruce's guitar string snap.
THIS is the ONE you want ! Very few of this pressing available world-wide!
