KIM FOWLEY “Born to be Wild” orig Imperial fuzz psych lp!

1968/Cdn/Imperial LP-12413…… here’s a rare in the shrink original Canadian pressing of his 2nd lp. Lots of groovy organ which Kim apparently plays and lots of fuzz guitar. The cover is very clean but there is a 1” spot right on the opening edge that has been rubbed and removed the paper, it’s a thin area and not disturbing, slight corner wear, there is also light aging on the back lower right corner where the shrink is missing, old store sticker on shrink top left corner, otherwise  the cover shows no wear, splits, delete or other issues! The vinyl is in VG+ condition, there are light scuffs/scratches/wear. The vinyl plays nice with only light minor noise between tracks and the odd spot. This is a rare original Canadian pressing! There is some glare on the pictures due to camera flash. Please check my auctions for other rock, and psych lp’s, good luck and thanks for looking!

                           Track List

I am a mind of a monster in the body of a boy. I, a heavy evil highway bandit prowl by car and prowl by midnight feet. I see it in your sisters' faces, whips so wicked, ropes so tight, my fingers rip through garden perfume, body paint the bedspread bright.

I crave warm fluffy things. Kittens, hamsters, feathered fish. Crouching in the country heat, eating legs of chicken hawks, the barnyard grease dribbles down my chin, as I make an important inner space discovery while feeding my human body. My human body holds me its lifetime prisoner. I escape through the tongue splashing into smiles, tears, yells and screams. It is hard for me to appear when the world wants me to, on the surface of my human body. Materialistically the world expects me to communicate on its own terms. I look back and see none. Reality brings about a change. STRAIGHT PEOPLE ARE CRAZY.

By being born wild into this universe you are hereby endowed by nature with all you need for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The world owes you a living - flaming creatures. Go wild until you get it.

EXCELLENT: not much below near Mint, may have a delete hole and/or a minor defect or two not visually detracting from the cover, the vinyl will appear shiny and in clean condition with very minor defects not affecting the sound, still very clean and very collectable!

VG++ still a very nice copy with minimal cover wear and/or delete/splits, still visually appealing, the vinyl will retain it's original gloss and can have some minor scuffs/scratches that don't affect play very much

VG+ a little more cover/ring wear and delete, splits etc., the vinyl will still retain much original gloss with a bit more scuffs and/or scratches I may list a very rare or desirable item with a lower grade, I will try to list all defects, both cover and vinyl no matter the condition, I also play grade the records on high end equipment and will give an honest play grade as well as visual grade, considering the number of records I buy on line my grading is very conservative and fair.
