THIS IS COLUMBIA KC 32005 LABEL. AEROSMITH'S 1ST ALBUM, SELF TITLED. THE 1ST PRESSING SHOWED THE SUN
RISING OVER THE EARTH WITH THE BAND IN A SMALL CENTER IMAGE. IN LATER PRESSINGS THE IMAGE OF THE BAND
WAS BLOWN UP AND BECAME THE ENTIRE COVER, THUS CREATING AN INSTANT COLLECTABLE RARITY FOR EARLY
AEROSMITH FANS WHO HAD BOUGHT THE UNKNOWN BAND'S 1ST PRESS, 1ST ALBUM. TO MAKE COLLECTORS A LITTLE
MORE CRAZY, THEY MISPELLED DOG ON THE OLD BLUES SONG CALLED WALKIN' THE DOG THAT THE BAND COVERED.
THEY HAD IT LABELED ' WALKIN' THE DIG '. SO NOW THE FIRST EDITION COVER HAD A TINY 1ST PRESSING, WITH A
SONG TITLE ERROR WHICH WAS QUICKLY CORRECTED. BUT NOT DONE YET, THE VERY FIRST ONES HAD DRUG
REFERENCES ALONG WITH FIGHTING REFERENCES WHICH WERE DEEMED UNACCEPTABLE BY COLUMBIA AND
DELETED FROM THE BANDS STORY ON THE BACK COVER! THE LAST 2 IMAGES IN SHRINK ARE FROM THE LATER
VERSION WITH THE SAME 1ST FRONT COVER, BUT DELETED DRUG REFERANCES AND CORRECTED DOG SPELLING,
STILL RARE BUT NOT THE SOUGHT AFTER RAREST! THE RECORD PLAYS VERY WELL BUT DOES SHOW SOME PLAY
SCRATCHES VG+. THE COVER HAS SHELFWEAR AND AND EDGEWEAR WITH TOP EDGE MIDDLE BEGINNING TO SPLIT,
HAD BEEN TAPED ABOUT 2 INCHES THERE LONG AGO STILL OVERALL NICE ENOUGH VG/VG- ALBUM SHIPS FULLY
INSURED.
