The Lewd Kill Yourself $225.20
From the Auction:
The legendary first single from Seattle's The Lewd,
recorded
before they moved to San Francisco. Showcases the thick sound
common to several early Seattle punk bands such as The Refuzors.
Features Kurdt Vanderhoof -- Blobbo - who went on to form
Metal Church. A touchstone record for the Seattle punk scene.
Cover sheet is in excellent condition apart from a couple small
spots on Jon's face and a couple wrinkles, as well as a ring
impression. Vinyl is in excellent condition with a couple small
scratches on Side A, very small, and I can't feel them with my
finger. Labels are excellent. Label contains the manufacturing
number SCRATCH-ME-101 copyright 1978. Overall, very fine
record. No paper inner sleeve. It probably came that way. This is
the original record, not the Rockin' Bones 2003 reissue.

Side A
1. Kill Yourself
Side B
