READ THIS! These records are NOT sold for perfect sound quality.

They’re sold for their scarcity and VISUAL grading. They’ve been in storage for a decade, and they WILL play with surface noise that can be addressed with D4 or a VPI cleaning.  I can’t test-play at the minute.

Please don’t bid if this is a problem for you.

So with that said…

Dead Kennedys 1985 LP Frankenchrist Alternative Tentacles, 2 Hardcore Flyers, EX Vinyl

Vinyl--- EX/EX.  Side 1 has a light stain of some sort through “A Growing Boy Needs His Lunch,” but plays completely silent and is undetected by your stylus.  Clean, shiny copy.

Plates---

Side 1:  Virus 45 A 22265  “The Full Rich Flavor of Stark Reality”

Side 2:  Virus 45 B 22265-X  “To Cope is to Cop Out”

Cover--- VG.  Some light to moderate ringwear, not bad.  NO SPLIT SEAMS.

Hardcore Inserts--- EX, EX.  Your guess is as good as mine why these were included.  But they’re very cool.  Promoting the band, “White Trash.”

Maybe they were up-and-comers who were opening for the Dead Kennedys?  Flyers are from 1983.  One is an interview conducted with all four band members, which is great.  The other is promoting one of their gigs.

Anyone seen these before?

Labels--- EX/EX.  NO SPINDLE MARKS.

Inner Sleeve--- EX.  No printed inner sleeve. This copy came with a rice paper sleeve.  NO SPLIT SEAMS.

A generic inner sleeve will be provided, so as not to damage your original inner sleeve en route.

CAUTION!  There has been a startling increase in bidders canceling their bids.  A word to the wise, I have started blocking any and all bidders who retract their bids regardless of the reason.

Please don’t bid unless you’re willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!

(Please note:  Regarding play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized.  The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle.  Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix?  Thanks!)
