As I said in my previous post, I didn't get a chance to go to any record stores this past Saturday, which is okay because there wasn't a lot of things I was super interested in. I live within driving distance of Baltimore and this is the third year in a row that Celebrated Summer Records has done an exclusive release with a local React! Records band. The first year was a Mindset 7" that had a Youth of Today rip as a cover, the second year was a special edition of the Peace 7", and this year they did a special cover for Mindset's debut LP, 'Leave No Doubt.' I wasn't able to make it to the store last weekend, but luckily my buddy is one of the coolest and was able to snag a copy of the Mindset LP for me. THANKS MAN.
Anyway, onto the record. As you can see, the covers are screened on the front to show that this was a Celebrated Summer Records exclusive. The dust sleeve is stamped, and the back cover has a version of the CSR cat drawn by Ev of Mindset. There's also a note about the release on the back cover, and is hand numbered out of 100 copies. All on purple marble vinyl. I shouldn't have to say anything about the tunes on this record, it was one of my top for the year in 2012. Overall this is an excellent version of this LP.
I scored a copy of this from the big cartel, stoked! I now have it in all three mail order colors, this color, plus white and clear tour colors. I think I'm just missing a test press now?
ReplyDeleteHow about the record release cover?
