Description
For your consideration:
This is a rare Canadian pressing of Rush's first album - not the very original Moon Records issue, but the second pressing distributed by Mercury of which copies were made from the Moon Records stampers, as evidenced by the matrix # MN-001-A and MN-001-B etched into the runoff in the vinyl - see the pictures!
Also, the LP label itself lists 'MN 100-A' and MN 100-B', and the rear of the cover features the Moon logo!
See pics for greater detail - if there's anything else you would like to know, just ask! I will send extra pics upon request.
Will ship in plastic sleeve with LP removed from jacket for safe arrival. I will also include THREE free Rush lp covers (Canadian Anthem versions) for A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres and Moving Pictures. I've no idea where the lps ended up... but the covers are cool, and will provide extra packing for the rare self-titled LP on it's passage to the new owner.
Graded as follows:
Cover - VG
LP - G+ / VG-
There is edge, corner and ring wear to the cover which is easily noted visually, but it is not overwhelming.
I have played the lp twice on both sides from beginning to end on my stock Rega RP-1. No skips noted, but there is an audible scratch mainly on 'In the Mood' for part of the song. 'Finding My Way' has a few click and pops near the beginning, but as noted, played through on my Rega. Overall, still a nice playing copy, and for you vinyl junkies, this is pressed from the original stampers!
