🔥 Rare Piece of Rock & Military History: Johnny & Edgar Winter / Head East (AFRTS RL 25-76)
Looking to add something truly unique to your vinyl collection? Forget standard retail pressings. This is a genuine Armed Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS) transcription disc, produced exclusively for US military personnel stationed overseas.
🎸 The Lineup
This disc features two absolute powerhouses of 70s rock:
Side A: Johnny & Edgar Winter - Blistering live blues-rock from the famous brothers.
Side B: Head East - Classic 70s arena rock anthems.
🎖️ The History: "Music for the Troops"
During the 1940s through the 1980s, AFRTS provided a vital taste of home to troops stationed far from the US. These records were never sold in stores. They were pressed in limited quantities and shipped to overseas radio stations. Once aired, they were intended to be destroyed, making survivors like this one highly coveted by collectors today.
📋 Condition Report & Specifics
Catalog Number: RL 25-76
Vinyl Condition: VG+ (Very Good Plus). Plays beautifully with minimal surface noise. Great gloss.
