MC5 - Kick Out the Jams - Uncensored [NEW][REISSUE][LP]
The original "uncensored version" featured the opening line "Kick out the jams, mother@#$%ers!" on the second track, and liner notes from John Sinclair, Minister of Information of the White Panthers. The subsequent "censored version" had the lyric changed to "Kick out the jams, brothers and sisters!" and had the liner notes removed.

The New York SON pressing plant may already have switched from gold to red labels. This can be compared to first Monarch pressings of "The Soft Parade" from The Doors (that came out in July) who had already a red label, whereas other pressing plants had not yet made the switch by that time and still used gold labels for some time. To know for sure, one would need to know if there really is no gold SON around and it would be important to know, when the very first red labels where used (which was always believed to have happened in the summer of 69). However the MC5 record came out in March. Also, it is important to point out, that there are 2 variations of the first red Elektra label. The first one (also the one from this release) has NO Broadway address on the label and comes after the gold label but before the most known red label (with address), like the first Stooges record, that only exists with address and came out august 5. This would mean that this release of the MC5 with the first variation of the red label was probably issued spring - beginning of summer 69. To conclude, one could say that the red labels without address are NOT to be considered as a Repress. It would more likely be a first press with a label variant. Maybe someone can help...

  • Condition Guarantee

     

    At Heavy Heads Records, we fully understand that when it comes to collecting vinyl records, condition is king! New vinyl records will arrive factory sealed, and in mint condition. Any used vinyl record that you order from us is guaranteed to be in VG+ condition or better, and will play all the way through without skipping! Every used vinyl record we bring in is cleaned, and thoroughly inspected, before it’s ever added to this site. Our used vinyl records are not specific to any pressing, and you may receive a vintage, or newer pressing of the title you order, depending on what we have in stock at the time of your order. The outer sleeve of your vinyl record is guaranteed to be in VG condition or better. If you’re unfamiliar with how vinyl records are graded, please take a moment to read through our condition guide. 

     

    VG+ (Very Good Plus) - A Very Good Plus vinyl record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Vinyl record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present.

     

    VG (Very Good) Outer Sleeve - May be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time. 99% of our outer sleeves are in VG+ condition, but occasionally will be VG, if that's all that is available at the time of the order.

     

     

    CD’s will arrive in VG+ condition or better, with clean cases, and all original artwork.

     

    Cassette tapes will arrive with good pads, clean cases, original inserts, and legible writing on the cassette itself.

     

    All of our media types are carefully packaged in thick, reinforced cardboard mailers, and each package is inspected for quality assurance, before they are mailed. Box sets are carefully wrapped in bubble wrap, with extra attention paid to the corners of the box.

     

    In other words, we ship our items to you, the way that we would like to receive them. We’re collectors too, and we completely understand the frustration of receiving a poorly packaged item! If you have any questions about our grading, shipping, or anything else, please shoot us an e-mail at heavyheads417@gmail.com. Thank you!
