Description
UP FOR OFFER HERE AT A REASONABLE ASKING PRICE IS A COPY OF THE BEST LIVE ALBUM FROM DAVID BOWIE'S CAREER - (RIVALED ONLY BY THE NASSAU '76 SHOW FINALLY GIVEN A PROPER RELEASE)
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE JOY THAT BOWIE FANS IN PHILLY HAD IN THE SUMMER OF '74 TO HAVE THE AWESOME BOWIE DIAMOND DOGS TOUR TOUCH DOWN FOR A SIX NIGHT STAND IN THE BEAUTIFUL SMALL VENUE THE TOWER THEATER TO RECORD THE SHOWS FOR THIS OFFICIAL RELEASE.
ONE MONTH LATER - BOWIE WAS BACK IN PHILLY TO RECORD HIS NEXT RELEASE - THE GRAND SLAM "YOUNG AMERICANS" ALBUM.
THE NEGATIVE PRESS OVER THE YEARS REGARDING THIS DAVID LIVE RELEASE SHOULD BE IGNORED - IT IS AN INCREDIBLE SOUNDING LIVE ALBUM WITH AN OUTSTANDING SET LIST - PLAYED BY THE BEST BAND BOWIE EVER HIT THE ROAD WITH.
YOU HAVE MIKE GARSON & MICHAEL KAMEN (LATER TO GO ON TO DO A BILLION MOVIE SCORES) ON KEYBOARDS, EARL SLICK ON LEAD GUITAR (WHO SOUNDED JUST INCREDIBLE BACK THEN WHEN HE WAS PLAYING LES PAULS AND SG'S!) & THE ICING ON THE CAKE - THE GREATEST SAXOPHONE PLAYER EVER - DAVID SANBORN - JUST AN INCREDIBLE BAND OF MUSICIANS ON THAT TOUR
20 SOME YEARS AGO - RYKODISC U.S.A. (AND LATER EMI IN THE UK) DID A VERY NICE JOB WITH THEIR VINYL RE-RELEASES OF DAVID'S RCA CATALOG - PRESSING WISE & WITH THE REPRODUCTION OF THE ARTWORK AND ADDITIONAL NEW PHOTOGRAPHS -
THE ONLY DRAWBACK WAS THAT THE ALBUM JACKET EDGES WERE NOT MADE VERY STURDY AND WERE PRONE TO SEAM SPLITING AT THE CENTER TOPS AND BOTTOMS DUE TO WEAK TOP AND BOTTOM COVER EDGES AND THE DISCS MOVING AROUND WITHIN.
THIS COPY IS NO EXCEPTION - AND HAS APPROX. 3" SEAM SPLITS AT IT'S TOP WITH BOTH OF IT'S GATEFOLD SLEEVE COMPARTMENTS.
THIS IS HOWEVER STILL NEW AND SEALED IN IT'S ORIGINAL RYKO PERFORATED "ZIP TOP" POLY BAG - IT IS THE ORIGINAL PICTURE LABEL ISSUE AND NOT THE LATER RECORD HOUSE VERSION
TO ANYONE READING OR INTERESTED IN THIS ITEM - I ALSO HAVE A NUMBER OF RELATED ITEMS TO ATTEMPT TO SELL - I HAVE A COLLECTION OF SOME VERY NICE 5"X 7" PHOTOGRAPHS THAT WERE TAKEN JUST A FEW DAYS PRIOR TO THE PHILLY SHOWS & A FEW EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT CONDITION COPIES OF THIS PERIOD RCA BOWIE VINYL LP'S
I STRIVE TO BE HONEST AND ACCURATE WHEN IT COMES TO DESCRIBING THE CONDITION OF THE ITEMS I SELL -
IN PARTICULAR I HAVE FOUND WHEN BUYING OLD RECORDS ON THE WEB - MANY SELLERS DO NOT HAVE A CLUE AS TO HOW TO GRADE OR DESCRIBE AN ALBUMS CONDITION - OR AT WORST - JUST PLAIN LIE ABOUT CONDITION
HAVE A LOOK AT MY TRACK RECORD - WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET WITH ME - NO JUNK OR TRASH VINYL RECORDS EVER SOLD HERE
WRITE ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE ABOUT THIS ITEM AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR LOOKING!
