Unique copy! Hand-numbered -8/1000. Given to Tim Yo at Maximumrocknroll Magazine. With green tape affixed to sleeve as per all the records given to Maximumrocknroll!From an interview with Tim Yo and Jen Angel from MRR:
Todd: On every piece of vinyl in the music library, all four edges of the record jackets are secured with thick, green tape. Why?
Tim: Purely arbitrary. I went to Mexico in the summer of 1966 and there was this really great band that I hung out with in Mexico City that summer, this R&B band, and the main guy in the band, Javier Batiz, put tape on the edges of his records. He had this really cool R&B collection. It looked really cool and I said I was going to do that and at that point I had forty records or something. Had I known, I never would have started.
Todd: Is it hard finding green tape?
Tim: Well, the green tape company went out of business and panic struck. But due to the wonders of capitalism, another company filled the gap.
Todd: Any discrepancies in the tapes?
Tim: Yes, there are actually shading and texture differences.
Jen: But there are good things like now if you see a record with green tape on it you know where it came from.Thanks for looking. Questions? Please ask.Will ship worldwide with tracking. I will combine postage if you wait for an invoice from me with combined postage.
