Description

Minutemen The Punch Line Vinyl LP - Early Pressing (I bought this album new in '85) SST Records 004 This release has a little history. From Wikipedia: Spot revealed during his interview for the Minutemen documentary We Jam Econo (preserved in the DVD's deleted scenes section) that the first pressing of the record was done with what he considered to be an inferior mastering job and set of stampers; he took possession of the stampers in order to prevent further pressings from being done, forcing a remaster that was used on all vinyl pressings since then. The remastered vocals sound significantly different from the original pressing in which the voices are deeper and slightly muffled.
Just to be Clear: This Item is NOT the first pressing from the stampers that Spot "took possession of".
The Characteristics of this particular record are: - Minutemen in small print on labels, like the first pressing, rather than large print like the 1989 release

- Labels show wide 2⅞" pressing ring, unlike smaller rings of later copies

- Mastered as 18 separate cuts (9 per side) rather than 7 as on First pressing

- Inner sleeve is cardboard and not white
- No Barcode
- Contains the Fundamentals Of Design insert, no Superstore catalog
