Reviews
- Looking for a first pressing (1979). Only have 3rd press.
- Looking for a first pressing (1979). Let me know okay
Still have my OG first press (black ink, no barcode) Bought at Pier records in Newport Beach. NFS unless you are filthy rich :)
Bro… i’m about to go broke and buy this I have all the other records first presses and this is the last one wish me luck- anyone holding a first press and want to let it go.. give me shout.. or even a first press cover would work.
Greg's guitar playing on this record is so clean that it wasn't distorted due to downstairs's noise. When they recorded this the club or whatever it was downstairs's was so noisy that the only way they could get the sound only was to play clean.- The drummer on this recording is Bryan Migdol not Robo.
- Edited 8 years agoI have what seems to be version 11 of this record. However, side 1 that has the Nervous Breakdown track is mislabeled and has a duplicate side 2 label (Fix Me, I've Had It, Wasted). The matrix runout for side 1 and 2 match with what is listed for the version 11 release. Anyone know anything about this?
whoever got this for $28 is one lucky duck.
I have the first seven pressings and have posted info and photos with all of the subtle differences between each version. The url is: http://blackflagnervousbreakdown.blogspot.com/2014/05/black-flag-nervous-breakdown-early.html
