Description
Step back into 1985 and relive the absolute genesis of sports entertainment history. This is the original United States first pressing of the legendary WWF The Wrestling Album, released on Epic Records with the classic blue script label design, official WWF block logo, and a gatefold jacket (Catalog Number BFE 40223). This is the sonic time capsule that fueled the historic Rock n Wrestling Connection era on MTV, masterminded by executive producer David Wolff and rock icon Rick Derringer. The iconic front cover features an unforgettable group portrait of the golden age roster, anchored by a pink-suited Hulk Hogan, a young Vince McMahon holding an official WWF microphone, Mean Gene Okerlund, and Captain Lou Albano. Open up the massive gatefold jacket to reveal a stunning double-page full-color photo montage from inside the recording studio, showcasing Rowdy Roddy Piper, Cyndi Lauper, Hillbilly Jim, Nikolai Volkoff, Iron Sheik, and Junkyard Dog during the tracking sessions. The record features the absolute definitive anthems of the era, including Hulk Hogans original theme Real American, the massive roster-wide collaborative performance of Land of a Thousand Dances, Junkyard Dogs Grab Them Cakes, and Rowdy Roddy Pipers classic spoken-word track For Everybody.
This historic piece of pop-culture memorabilia is an absolute necessity for vinyl archivists, retro wrestling fans, and serious collectors alike. The vinyl record has been visually graded in exceptional Very Good Plus (VG+) condition, holding a brilliant, mirror-like glossy black sheen with only a few minor, faint surface paper scuffs that do not affect the high-fidelity playback quality. The gatefold jacket is graded in solid Very Good (VG) condition; it exhibits typical vintage shelf wear, light edge creasing, and minor rubbing on the corners and spine, but the vibrant, colorful full-panel photography remains incredibly sharp, crisp, and clean with absolutely no seam splits.
