Japan pressing with Obi.
Just a perfect album.

My favorite JP album. That thing just rips from start to finish and is a desert island title for me.
Quoted from waldo34:Thanks for posting, had no idea there was a new Grover album released.
It’s wicked.
Quoted from Fulltilt:It’s wicked.
I can't wait I'm hoping to make it to the record store tomorrow. Started my evening with Grover Soul Box. His live stuff is unbelievable.
Quoted from Pinball-Ike:From my last Star Wars and South Park session...

Love all Todd and Utopia. This lp is 3 sides, one with a side a and side b and the second lp had the same thing on both sides. I don't recall another like it, any body else no of this being done with another artist?
Gillan, Mr Universe ,1978?
New pressing.
My favorite Gillan band album, much better known in the UK and Japan, the Gillan band did little north American touring, so many Deep Purple fans here missed these albums. Kind of a lost NWOBHM band. I've only discovered the Gillan stuff in the last 10 years.
Ian broke up the Gillan band, in 1983, joined Sabbath for the Born Again album and extensive world tour. Then reunited the classic
mark 2 Deep Purple in 1984.
Check out the title track Mr Universe, if you dig Deep Purple, it's very much a purple song .

Ha! So funny Kevin, I literally hadn’t looked at or played this album since college[30+ years], and the hair and glasses on the cover made it a ‘must play’ when I pulled it out. The second LP threw me for a loop, first I forgot it was there, then I wondered if I had collected 2 copies, then I saw and remembered your point that the second LP is 1 side repeated.
Regardless, it was a fun listen and had to share!
FYI, that new Foo Fighters album is pretty good too. Not quite Sonic Highways good, but another solid set of tunes from Dave and Co...

Not exactly the same, but I have a few multi-disc albums where the final side has an etching instead of grooves. Coheed & Cambria’s Vaxis Act 1 is the first that came to mind.

Another "not quite but similarly weird" - I have a double grooved 7" that has acoustic and electric versions of the same songs on each side depending on where the needle sets down.

one of the most extreme vinyls is Jack White's Lazaretto.
ULTRA LP FEATURES:
- 2 vinyl-only hidden tracks hidden beneath the center labels
- 1 hidden track plays at 78 RPM, one plays at 45 RPM, making this a 3-speed record
- Side A plays from the inside out
- Dual-groove technology: plays an electric or acoustic intro for “Just One Drink” depending on where needle is dropped. The grooves meet for the body of the song.
- Matte finish on Side B, giving the appearance of an un-played 78 RPM record
- Both sides end with locked grooves
- Vinyl pressed in seldom-used flat-edged format
- Dead wax area on Side A contains a hand-etched hologram by Tristan Duke of Infinity Light Science, the first of its kind on a vinyl record

I'm not a fan of Jack White but I might need to buy this just for the cool features. Do you need to destroy the label to play the hidden tracks?
Quoted from Shredso:I'm not a fan of Jack White but I might need to buy this just for the cool features. Do you need to destroy the label to play the hidden tracks?
I'm not either, haven't even opened it yet. Probably won't.
you play the hidden tracks right through the label.
Here is a video of all the cool stuff including playing through the label.
I should say, I'm not a fan of JW's music but I am a fan of what he has done/is doing for vinyl. 
Quoted from fnosm:one of the most extreme vinyls is Jack White's Lazaretto.
Oof, yeah I have a copy of that... it’s a royal pain in the dick to play those weird tracks. You have to be fairly sober to do it but fairly loaded to want to. It’s a balancing act for sure.

Wow, I've had this album since release, and I didn't know about a couple of those. The youtube link was helpful too. Very cool
Sam at the Copa is a classic recording...that Tennessee Waltz could be another 30 minutes and it would still be too short.
The Copa show is great, I've had the cd of it for years, so a new remastered vinyl copy was an easy buy.

Thanks for letting me know this is available.
I have been looking for this for a while.
Is there a retailer that you recommend? I hate using Amazon.

Plaid Room Records is having an Anniversary Sale this weekend.
ElusiveDisc is my first stop for anything, though.
I pre ordered it through a friends record store in long beach, if I were you I'd call Rasputin records in your area, see if they got a copy or can order you one.

Is this album as bad as I'm sure it must be?
Yes it's worse than you can imagine. I'm a WHO fanatic, I own almost all the Daltry, Townshend, and Entwhistle solo albums, but not Moonies!
I heard it in the early 90's, utter crap.
Message from the Shepards Bush Freeeek Kingdom.
My friend just got his in at his store, he says the german vinyl pressing plant screwed them up, with blemishes on the records, but they sound ok.
How do yours look, and sound?
Billy Joel + Cocaine was a good recipe back in 79-80 or so.
...thoguh 'All for Lena'? Yeah...coulda done without that one.
