Description

Original press of Dinosaur's debut on Homestead before an old hippie band forced them to change their name to Dinosaur Jr.  From Trouser Press:  "

These masters of high-decibel manipulation at one time had difficulty playing more than a single gig per club because of their ear-damaging attack. Prior to forming Dinosaur, J Mascis (originally a drummer) and bassist Lou Barlow played together in Deep Wound (featured on the 1984 Conflict compilation Bands That Could Be God); Mascis switched to guitar and recruited drummer Murph (Patrick Murphy), formerly of All White Jury, to form a new group.

Dinosaur finds the trio sounding like ten different bands on as many songs. Mascis, also the primary singer and songwriter, employs an array of electronic devices to squeeze a myriad of variations from harmonic structures, utilizing a variety of tones from loud to louder to loudest. Meat Puppets, Neil Young and Sonic Youth comparisons are inevitable, but Dinosaur's raucous individuality is beyond dispute. After legal threats from the West Coast summer-of-love vets calling themselves the Dinosaurs, Dinosaur politely became Dinosaur Jr."

NM/VG+, vinyl/cover.  Cover looks great but there's slight sticker residue on the back cover and a ding on the lower left hand corner.   Check my other auctions, I have numerous similar items this week.
