Whats up Y'ALL? I'm "BACK IN BLACK"...
and I'm KICKIN' it into HIGH GEAR right here!!!!
Let's get back to the business of:
..."ALL SUBLIME ALL THE TIME".....
A fool went ahead and dug into the vaults to bring you one of THE most sought after "sublime" collectables around!
IT'S THE LONG OOP, "CASSETTE" RELEASE FROM THE BAND THAT THEY CALL
"sublime"
KNOWN AS THE:
.....!!!! BLACK !!!!.....
FIRST PRESS
"40 oz. to Freedom"
cassette!
_____________________________________________________________________________________
..... SOOOOO RARE !! .....
_____________________________________________________________
Having said that,....Let's have a look at this Bad Boy!!,...Time's a wastin'!!.....
P.S. Click on ANY of my pictures to get the SUPERSIZED view...
***By the way,....There is no "barcode" to be found on this cassette; as they were never sold in stores. These are the "Trunk of their cars" cassettes !! Sublime gave these out at shows,.. to Bros, Music Shops, Sold them at gigs or where ever they could, etc. !! ***
***THIS CASSETTE RELEASE WAS MADE PRIOR TO THE "CD" PRESSING OF "40 oz. to Freedom" & I HAVE HEARD THAT IT WAS A LIMITED PRESSING OF 250 MADE!!!!!!!!***
Check this sucka out.....SICK, TO SAY THE VERY LEAST!!!
Check this sh*t out!!!....
**I don't think that I really need to go on about how cool (Or RARE!!) this cassette is,..just the fact that it's sublime and from 1992', speaks for itself, however I will tell you this......
**These cassettes were mostly handed out at shows with the exception of some being given to friends, family, etc.,...and I don't know about you,...but if you were at a sublime show back then, you know what I mean when I tell you that not a lot of these "survived"!
Take a look for yourself at the CLOSE-UPS of this cassette!
....Absolutely CRAZY!!, huh?..
A little story for Ya'll....
*** This little gem was made by the guys right around the time that they also released the "40 oz." CD, but the killer thing that is on this cassette, THAT WAS/IS NOT ON ANY PRESSING OF THE 40 oz. CD,....is the ***infamous "EXTENDED THANX"!!!***
(As you know, this is at the end of the cassette, BUT, I'm not talking about the "Thanx Dub" from "Second Hand Smoke".)
***The "EXTENDED THANX" are WAY longer & highly sought after by any sublime collector!!!
.....*** This cassette also has the INFAMOUS "Misprint Address" (As it is known by collectors.) of "996 Redondo" , Not sublime's correct address of "966 Redondo" !!!.... Can anyone say: "Bong Load !!??...They forgot THEIR OWN ADDRESS!!!....Purely Sublime~~!!
...And, Finally,...**This cassette contains the Original version of "Get Out", as well as "Rawhide" after "Date Rape"!!
...................................................................
**Another cool thing here (and RARE),.... There is NO BARCODE anywhere to be found on the cassette!...Which means that they didn't sell them in stores... These are the cassettes that were sold by the guys at shows & given away to friends, etc.!! The "Second" pressing of this cassette has a barcode right on the front of the J-Card. "Skunk Records" is all you see here....
Also,... With the previous cassette releases from sublime..."c003" & "Jah Won't Pay The Bills", the members of "sublime" were listed as: Brad, Bud, & Eric.
The names on the Original "40 oz." cassette, however, are not Brad, Bud, and Eric,...rather it has the guys listed as: Texas, Cricket, The Yellow Lover (on Drums); as Bud was in rehab & Kelly Vargas & Marshall contributed most of the drumming on the album.
**This cassette is a MUST for any true hardcore fan of sublime, and if you are just starting,...sh*t,....you couldn't start your collection with a better piece of history!!!
This cassette is in absolutely PERFECT shape; & IT'S 18 YEARS OLD!!!
