Here we have a first pressing of Queen of the Stone Ages many titled seminal record. Named Rated R in the US, it was retitled simply X in Europe. First pressed by interscope, it was repressed later in 2004. First UK pressings are easily identifiable, firstly by the spine reading Feel Good Hit of the Summer and also having a Stickered front with title on. This was later printed on the actual sleeve.
This is a first pressing and in beautiful.condition throughout. It is fully.comllete with the one sided printed song information sheet and most importantly it sounds immense!

Outer Sleeve : Excellent

The 1st press gatefold sleeve is in amazing condition. There are no rips, tears, laminate lift, ringwear or graffiti whatsoever. The spine is strong and perfect. All the colours are vivid and it looks as if just bought bar the most minor of shelf wear . All edges are sharp and flat and there is no foxing to speak of.

Inner Sleeve: Nr Mint
The first press inner is perfect in every way. No rips, tears or staining.

Vinyl Nr MINT


It is in near perfect condition. I know that I have only played this very minimally, probably a handful.of times.at most and I look after my records so other than the smallest of near invisible removals, it's in amazing condition. It sounds simply stunning and just jumps off the turntable. It sounds stunning on.all frequencies and will blow.your.speakers up! I heard only.the faintest of static at full volume.on the track rests other than that it's near perfect.

Labels: Nr Mint
Not a mark to mention, no spider lines, no writing, just perfect labels.
Picture inner: Nr Mint

So there we have it. A very rare ltd edition first pressing of this seminal record.


Happy Bidding!

I will post the record with inner sleeve and vinyl removed from outer sleeve and placed in a new plastic sleeve. The record will then be packaged into a high quality, boxed mailer with two stiffeners either side. In short, It will be bombproof!
I will post as soon as payment is received and full tracking will be updated once dispatched.  If you are unhappy with my grading, I offer a full refund with no quibbles and will pay return postage if in the UK. Certain countries I will not post to so please ask if outside UK. Anyone with less than 5 feedback will have to message me.before bidding or I will remove their bids. I am an honest seller looking a for honest buyers only! Thanks
