About this deal
Few copies came with a promo sticker "PR-Copy" and a DIN-A4 promo-insert with album and artists facts. Their unique blend of pub rock and blues rock sets them apart as one of the most influential bands in British music history. Originally released in 1976, it was the first live album to ever hit number 1 on the UK charts in its first week.
M (Mint): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
In addition to being Motley Crue's best selling album, it is highly regarded by music critics and fans as the band's best studio album. EX (Excellent): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality.
The final cut, a killer live medley of 'Bonie Maronie'/'Tequila' with guests Brinsley Schwarz and Bob Andrews blowing saxes, was a taste of what they did on stage with astonishing regularity, and could have sent the Ramones back to the drawing board if the Queens-based quartet had heard it.

That's why each of our records is first meticulously cleaned and then not just inspected once, but twice, before a sample is play-tested to make sure it sounds as good as it looks. Released amid the burgeoning radio presence of acts like Thin Lizzy, Blue Öyster Cult, and Kansas, and the growing self-conscious profundity of Bruce Springsteen, Down by the Jetty was as refreshingly lean as anything the headline-grabbing '70s punks would later loose on the world, and as stripped down as the most basic roots rock. Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description. Lee Brilleaux's singing could go up against Eric Burdon's or Cyril Davies, and even take on elements of a thick rasp vaguely reminiscent of Howlin' Wolf (listen closely to 'Roxette'), certainly better than Mick Jagger ever did; and guitarist Wilko Johnson could play Jimmy Reed, Chuck Berry, or Bo Diddley licks with equally imposing (and seemingly effortless) virtuosity. Irrespective of the source, all of our collectables meet our strict grading and are 100% guaranteed.
