Notes

Recorded at Sound And Vision in San Francisco.
Mixed at Dancing-Dog In E-Ville.
Mastered at K-Disc, Hollywood.

The 1st press has Laytonville address for Lookout! Records on the backsleeve. There has been more than one pressing with the Laytonville address, but there is no way to distinguish a first Laytonville press from a later Laytonville press. The number of first pressing is unknown.

Lawrence Livermore from Lookout! Records estimates that at least 5,000 copies with the Laytonville address exist.

The repress on Lookout! Records has the Berkeley address on the back cover.

Includes an insert.

    Make sure you ask for photos before buying. Currently, there’s at least two listed for sale that do not have the Laytonville address, meaning they’re not first pressings.

      Looking for a sleeve. If anyone has one they want to part with, I’d be much obliged

        First of all...Excellent Album. Go ahead and get, no-treat yourself to a copy. I was lucky enough to get one in a lot that I, nor my Friend who owns the record store, realized it was such an Awesome, Amazing Album. My copy came in a generic sleeve, so, I guess I can’t be sure whether or not it’s the First Press. Looking for a sleeve. If anyone has one they want to part with, I’d be much obliged

          Does this really play at 78 rpm or is that some kind of joke?

            Pretty sure this here is a first press! I see Laytonville on both the sleeve and the insert. The Op. Ivy address here being in Berkley, in my opinion is irrelevant. The Lookout! address is whats important, and both the sleeve and the insert match! If you cant see it on the insert, look to the bottom left of it, on same side as Op. Ivys address.

              i find the release section on this LP a bit confusing, i have a copy of this it has MARCH 89 Lookout Records #0000000000010 on the spine but it also has a barcode on the back which is not mentioned on this release

                I won't go as far as "kcchef73" here, but there is no denying this release is seminal, monumental, even legendary. Gritty, politically charged ska-punk at its finest. If for some inexplicable reason you haven't heard this, listen now.
