Description
John Bender "I Don't Remember Now / I Don't Want to Talk About It" Record Sluts 003101, 1980. Lp VG+ (sleeve marks); hand-done, stamped chipboard jacket EX-/VG+ (very mild rubbing, and two spots of sticker residue top right). *** VERY RARE! The lowest #d copy I've ever come across -- #17! Numbered in red ink (lower right corner), as were all of the jackets. Awesome, highly sought-after cold-wave, minimal electro masterpiece from this mysterious Ohio artist. Self-released, as were his follow-up lps (Plaster Falling and Pop Surgery) on his Record Sluts label. This one is my favorite, as it has the terrific cover version of Faust's "It's a Rainy Day" included(!). Absolutely winning, home-brewed experimental electronic pop, presented in impeccable, homemade fashion! NOT TO BE MISSED! Note: the jacket is like the others I've seen, except this one is not glued at the seams, so in fact it opens as a gatefold but there is no extra art or anything inside. I'm guessing this was intentional, as it's so early in the pressing and Bender may have been playing around with the idea of putting more stamps inside or something (?). References: Ike Yard, Food and Shelter, Men/Eject, Charles De Goal, Nurse With Wound, United Dairies, Pinakotheca, Vanity Records. *** Please see my other auctions, too, as I will always have exciting stuff related to these areas of musical interest: avant garde, free jazz, post punk, Fluxus, experimental, improvisation, folk blues, ethnic international. *** Paypal strongly preferred. Money orders are fine. Cash is not advised and is sent at your own risk. Personal checks not accepted. Priority postage within USA: $5.00 for one single album; double album or two separate lps $7.00; Media mail costs less, but takes a bit longer. International winner will pay actual postage/packaging, to be calculated after auction's close. Payment to be received within ten days of auction's close. THANKS.
