THE GREEN SHAG! "GOOD RECORDS FOR GOOD PEOPLE!"
GUNS N' ROSES / APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION 1987 GEFFEN/UZI SUICIDE EARLY USA PRESS
••••• The debut that took the hard rock/heavy metal scene by storm...gritty & edgy with a delinquent big city swagger. Huge biting grinding guitars from Slash and Axl's Hollywood howl propels "Welcome to the Jungle" "It's So Easy" "Paradise City" "Sweet Child of Mine" and song after song of hard rocking sex/drugs/rock&roll. ESSENTIAL.
- 1987 early USA pressing
- the dead wax is etched "GHS-24148-A/B" & "DMM STERLING"
- spindle area DOES have the embossed "EAST" lettering
- cover is glossy heavy card stock
- inner sleeve is the RARE UNCENSORED ARTWORK/LYRIC glossy color printed paper stock
CONDITION:
VINYL = VG Sleeve scuff/rub/hairlines/light play marks or light scratches throughout & a longer unfeelable but visible mark across side "R" visible under bright halogens. The labels are EX.
PLAY GRADE = STRONG VG++ PLAYS WAY ABOVE VISUAL GRADE Light hiss or crackle between tracks but MUSIC EASILY OVERPOWERS, DELIVERS HUGE LOUD BOLD DEEP BOOMING FIDELITY.
COVER = VG+ Storage signs & light rubbing wear, impressions/streaking/creasing, CLEAN BRIGHT BOLD & VIVID. The edge seams have dents/dings and some light rub through color but SOLID, NO SPLITS. Corners have a bit of soft rub. The inner sleeve has creasing/handling and is split at the bottom but still quite bright & clear.
