    ELEKTRA and MONARCH must’ve had some sort of secret deal. all the monarch presses are absolutely phenomenal and this one is no exception. crazy good dynamics that switch through the channels and has that PHAT bass and punch you want. they did a great job at making sure the lyrics don’t get lost in the mix with such an overwhelming rockin record

      My copy is about as minty as one could hope to find. Sounds fantastic. The bass on No Fun is recorded amazingly well, especially for the time. The whole songs just tears from your speakers, yet sounds clear. You can tell the distortion and other things you hear are them, not you. Very upfront.
      Grateful I found this years ago for around $9.99, I think. Under $15 for sure.

        In addition to the matrix numbers identified here, my copy also has "BOB KRAMER" and "WHERE ARE THEY WHEN WE NEED THEM" etched in the run out. Is this typical?

          I purchased a sealed, cut-out of this incredible album during the summer of 1972 - at K-Mart - for the paltry sum of $0.33. There were multiple copies available, so a friend snagged one as well. That summer, our 12 year-old minds were forever warped.
