TSOL's first full-length album DANCE WITH ME Reissue on CLEAR VINYL (ONLY 300 PRESSED) W/AUTOGRAPHS!

This lovingly remastered 1981 classic punk album originally released on Frontier Records was reissued this year (29 March 2019) by Dink Records on clear vinyl, and has never been played, only the shrinkwrap was removed so the band members could sign their respective photos on the back of the outer sleeve. The 3 original members that signed were Singer Jack Grisham (Alex Morgon), Bassist Mike Roche and guitarist Ron Emory.

All the print on the front and the reverse of the outer sleeve is inlaid with gold leaf. I asked the band when I interviewed them before the show what they thought of the sound quality, and they were in agreement that it was the best sounding TSOL album to date. Other reviewers have noted the same.

Other than the Misfits, no band has combined gothy subject matter and punk rock barre chords as well as T.S.O.L., who hit the nail on the head with this classic 1981 recording.

My story: As a teen, I worked the record booth at the local flea market where I learned the trade from “The Old Hip-Eye,” cleaning thousands of albums and becoming conversant with just about all the bands of note. I worked there for trade, and afterward, as manager of 3 different used record stores, I either got paid cash or x 2 in trade, and spent many a paycheck collecting vinyl, particularly rare punk rock. I was the primary record buyer at Alley Cat Records, Lawrence, KS (in 2 locations) and Archives Records (Des Moines, IA) and bought both used and new records (from labels including Mammoth, Lookout, etc.). I was also the manager of the final location of Exile Records in Lawrence, where I learned buying music, including vinyl, from customers and sellers in a college town where students often sold their (sometimes) rare records.

Most of my private collection consists of near-mint, autographed & carefully, barely-played vinyl records which have been stored safely since purchase in a smoke and pet free environment.

The vinyl, Cassettes* & rare CDs* I sell are in the condition stated, and many never even hit the shelves of the stores in which I worked, as I got first crack at the stock before it was put into the “New Arrivals” bin. I handle vinyl with the care I've come to learn for buying/grading purposes professionally.

*I don't rate case condition as they break easily in transit.
