Avoid at all costs - this is an under par pressing from Czech pressing plant GZ Media.
Hiclerlsi
Under par Czech GZ Media pressing - AVOID at all costs.
Vivados
Just bought this version (with the "white" back sleeve, and no insert). Does anyone know if it's official and when it was issued ?
Gigafish
Picked up a Grado Mono cartridge/stylus and with this one sounds better than any LP in my entire collection...
Vizil
Finally got a copy of this and all I have to say is wow. Gave up trying to find a original first pressing.This is the first Sundazed pressing and I don't know if the others are as good.This might be the best thing Sundazed has ever done. They can be up and down.But this absolutely cranks and the mono just pounds you.
Pameala
GOOD LORD!!! Has anybody have a copy that has no ringwear, this is crazy!!! Aaaaaaaand while I am at it, anybody know the definitive, best sounding version, I would appreciate it. I would think it would be this one, given mono and the 60s always went well for some reason.
Uanabimo
This pressing sounds sluggish or slower than it should be and the sound quality is terrible.
Kanek
I second Karu-Selli's question - and I also would like some supporting evidence that this cover actually is a second. I live in Houston and sell at the Houston Record Convention; I'm not an expert on the subject, but I've never heard from any of the locals who are that the cover variation denotes a second. I recently purchased a copy from someone who (apparently) bought the album around the time of release. It has the matrix numbers and slight label variation shown on Discogs as the "first press" mono: https://www.discogs.com/The-13th-Floor-Elevators-The-Psychedelic-Sounds-Of-The-13th-Floor-Elevators/release/11432206. But it has the "second press" cover as shown in this entry.I suppose that IA might have wholesaled some first presses in second covers to reduce old vinyl inventory (Blue Note and Prestige, for example, were notorious for doing that). but I've never heard that IA did this. And it's doubtful that anyone would have switched covers on the item I purchased.Can anyone provide references for clarification?
Hucama
R.I.P. Roky Erickson (1947-2019). Too far out for this world.
Ielonere
Even sadder when I heard of his tragic life, his death went by almost unnoticed it seems, we lost a gem, I will always see him as a legend in my hometown.
Kamuro
The incarnation of psychedelic music. Good press. I never heard the first press but this one is excellent!Good dynamics, deep, in mono please!This sound loop in the background that we hear on quasiement all the titles is exhilarating, to the point of wanting to listen to the album again and again! And I don't even need drugs!!Essential
Samut
Someone offered me this red edition. Can't test it personally as we live in different towns. How it is about sound quality? Seems this kind of classics have a sea of reissues and specially this title is so alien-sounding since it was recorded, as someone stated, that no edition can be more than "correct ..the rest is dreaming what it could be"
The Rollers of Vildar
Its all right but sounds totally different than original first or second pressing.
Kagaramar
My copy did not include a hype sticker or barcode.
Winawel
i picked up this release a few months back. Its a nice pressing. Nicely packaged as well.
Thorgahuginn
Clicks early for me, but I'm not sure if that's my record player. Anyone else have this issue? Great otherwise, one of my favourite albums
Yalone
I don't have this "clicks"-issue...and yes, great and favourite LP.
Flarik
Hi.Just one question about the runout matrix number.According to the informations given here the first pressing should read * Matrix / Runout (Runout etching side A): IA-5001 SIDE-1 S-1264* Matrix / Runout (Runout etching side B): E-9 I-A 5002 Re S-1265 Rewhile the second pressing should read* Matrix / Runout (Runout etching side A): IA-5001 SIDE-1 S-1264* Matrix / Runout (Runout etching side B): I-A 5002 Re S-1265 ReSo, overall the same, except that the first pressing adds E-9 on side two.Is this correct? Could anybody confirm this difference for the first pressing?Thanks in advance...
Aradwyn
Any idea how somebody has obtained the information that this 2nd press is from 1967 and not 1966 ? would really like to know!
SiIеnt
This is the one that all the ersatz vinyl junkies have stains in their pants when they talk about it and it's now obligatory to have on your want list. Let me clue you in. This album is an all-time classic. Every song is a winner from the hard garage rock of YOU'RE GONNA MISS ME to the eerie psychedelia of KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Unfortunately, in terms of sound quality it was never recorded very well and therefore like building a house on mud it is fatally flawed. In 1966 the suits in the recording studio would have had no clue as to what to do with the Elevators. They must have thought it was an alien invasion--all this in conservative Texas mind you. The recording has very few dynamics, a hollow feel to it and sounds as if it were recorded underwater. It has been done in a million formats and still you can only hope for it to sound good. I have owned the holy grail mono pressing and right out of the shrink wrap it has the Rice Crispies effect--you know--snap, crackle, pop. Phenomenal record and one of my personal favorites but again in terms of sound quality we can only wonder what if...
Androrim
Anyone know what the quality of the release is like ?
Nilabor
IMO, Sound quilty on this is great.Well put togather. The remastered stereo copy is off the hook. Tho momo also sounds very clean
Cenneel
Thank you , that's very much appreciated , I will get this one !
Unereel
Sounds great. The mono mix, in my opinion, sounds better in terms of clarity than the stereo mix on the second LP. Certainly much less harsh than the single LP stereo repressing from 2012.
Dominator
This is definitely the copy that I have, however, there is nothing in the price guide for it... Record skips a few spots, and the cover is not in the greatest shape. Wondering why there's nothing in the price guide though.
Mash
I have this same one, and I wondered the same. Presumably, this particular version has not been sold on Discogs previously, so no price to base the estimate on.
Usishele
I seem to have this version but it is on thick, old-style vinyl with marks and wear to match an older pressing. it seems very unlikely my copy was pressed in 2012. Was an earlier version released with these labels and matrix numbers? Please say yes.
Arcanefire
No, my copy doesn't have the plain white back cover. I will keep researching it. Thank you for the reply.
Conjuril
Maybe you have this one? The matrix numbers look similar: https://www.discogs.com/The-13th-Floor-Elevators-The-Psychedelic-Sounds-Of-The-13th-Floor-Elevators/release/4643057
Kanrad
My copy plays slowly. It's not noticeable, but each track is a few seconds too long and the album runs about a minute longer than it should overall.
Samutilar
Bought myself a copy of this release by November 2017 downtown Brussels, in a shop named Veals&Geeks.It might be but doesn't look like pirate, doesn't sound like pirate. It's just a weird edition.
Akir
unofficial bootleg/ counterfeit release -please remove from Discogs
Connorise
We don't remove bootlegs from the database, but they might be removed from the marketplace.

Ffrlel
can you give any details please? Oldays Records seemed to be an quite official and legal reissue label as fara s I can tell.
Ironfire
Promo copies didn't come with a cover. This press sounds good but still lo-fi and hallow
Styphe
Does anybody know if this boot is sourced from the original mono pressing? It would make sense seeing as that's what it's attempting to imitate. If it's not sourced from the aforementioned pressing is it a digital or analog source?
Hulis
speaking of classic : spaced out bluesy ranch rock *****
Painshade
This is a terrific album, a gem for history, and the sounds of the Texas Psychedelic movement. Too many people complain about the production and sound quality and I have to believe that most of them weren't around when this album was laid down. If you weren't around, let me tell you, most of us have better equipment in our living rooms then was available at the time to most artists. On this album and Roky, capture the time in music more then most people were ever able to do. From the very first song they grab hold and draw you deeper into the heat of a Texas summer in the early 60's. Don't go blaming them for not being proficient, they were just a bunch of spaced out kids with something to say, using the language of the day. They were true to the spirit of the times, as were not many of the successful psychedelic or want'a be psychedelic artists who just jumped on board the latest trend. These guys lived the life and it's reflected in their work. So the music is a little insane, so it's a bit immature as viewed through today's eyes and ears, but they paved the way for many to follow and I defy anyone out there to not be blown away by "You're Gonna Miss Me" for the first time. Still today it knock my socks off. And on a side note, in High Fidelity [the movie, not the recording process] what better song to blast from your window as your lover moves out. Hey, I may just be a chick, but I know my roots.SOME FUN FACTS: The 13th Floor Elevators formed as a band in Austin, Texas in late 1965. Tommy Hall, a University of Texas philosophy/psychology student, had been experimenting with psychedelics and playing the jug in a folk band. Hall came up with the unique idea of placing a microphone next to his jug which created a very unusual sound. He could see that combining his electric jug with psychedelic lyrics opened up a strange new territory, and Hall recruited several additional musicians from a Port Aransas-Rockport area group called the Lingsmen: Stacy Sutherland (lead guitar), Benny Thurman (bass), and John Ike Walton (drums). The final link was Roky Erickson.Erickson was seventeen when he had written and released a local Top Ten single with The Spades (August 1965/zero Records) called “You’re Gonna Miss Me.” He was an accomplished rhythm guitar player with a powerful voice, and The Elevators signed with a Houston record company called International Artists. “The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators” was released in August 1966, and the song “You’re Gonna Miss Me” eventually reached #56. The album also included such psychedelic songs as “Roller Coaster,” “Kingdom of Heaven,” “Reverberation (Doubt),” and “Splash 1.”Before a second album had been attempted, internal friction and drug problems forced the departure of John Ike Walton and Benny Thurman. Replacements were found in Danny Thomas (drums) and Ronnie Leatherman (bass) although Leatherman only lasted until July 1967 to be replaced by Danny Galindo. This unit entered the studio for two months to cut the worthy follow- up album Easter Everywhere (Sept. 1967). It contained an eight minute poem “Slip Inside This House” as well as “Postures (Leave Your Body Behind)” and a cover of Dylan’s “Baby Blue.”The Elevators did a good deal of touring that included an appearance on the Dick Clark show. When the Elevators had finished their song, Dick Clark innocently asked Roky, “Who is the head of the band?” Roky’s response was, “We’re all heads.”The Elevators were having a rough time of it in Texas as they were constantly in trouble with the police and the Texas Rangers. The penalty at that time for being caught with one joint was twenty years in jail. The first time the Elevators were busted they were not prosecuted due to a technicality, but a second bust occurred at a state university with Roky being ordered to stand trial. The defense attorney decided a plea of insanity (based on Roky’s altered state) would be less harsh for his client, but the result was a five year sentence. Roky would spend the next three and a half years at a mental institution called Rusk State Hospital.The Elevators, without Roky who was their figurehead and unofficial leader, were finished. International Artists tried to capitalize on what success the Elevators had by releasing The 13th Floor Elevators Live album (January 1968) which was essentially studio outtakes that were overdubbed with phony cheering and applause. The last Elevator album to appear was Bull of the Woods (December 1968) that was primarily the effort of Stacy Sutherland.The Elevators tried to get back together several times after Roky’s release, but an ongoing feud between Roky and Tommy never seemed to get resolved. The death of Stacy Sutherland (killed in a domestic squabble with his wife in 1978) confirmed the Elevators existence was officially over.Except for a bizarre single called “Red Temple Prayer (Two-Headed Dog)” that was released in 1975, Roky’s sabbatical would last thirteen years. Roky Erickson returned with the 1980 album based on B-grade horror movie material called Roky Erickson and the Aliens (August 198O/CBS-U.K.) It was produced by Stu Cook (ex-bass player for Creedence Clearwater Revival) and included such songs as “Creature with the Atom Brain,” “Cold Night for Alligators,” “Stand for the Fire Demon,” and “I Walked with a Zombie.”Roky continued to make several more interesting albums throughout the 1980s, but his mental condition seemed to be deteriorating. Then in 1989 he was charged with the federal crime of tampering with the U.S. Mail—apparently he collected mail for an apartment complex and never gave it to the addressees. Consequently, he went to court where the judge did not believe that Roky had a mental condition and had him sent to Missouri for “testing.” At some point in the process, Roky snapped.Review by Jenell Kesler

Very cool overview-the primitivism just adds to the mystique regarding the recording. God-why change a thing? Proficient is as over rated as audiophile. Rock and Roll should be about raw blistering nerve shattering truth at it's best. So many casualties of that era, but Roky is certainly in the Big 3, with Skip and Syd. And the greatest singer of the trinity-Erickson's Scream alone, was like a James Brown from another galaxy....

Great review! Just a minor note, on the Dick Clark appearance -- it was actually Tommy Hall, the "Electric Jug" player who answered "We're all heads". Also interesting in that appearance is how Dick Clark quickly motions the camera away at the end, as though he's afraid of the Elevators making some other off color remarks or drug references.I always thought Stacy Sutherland looked like a time traveler from the late 1990s in that video, too. He had a look that was definitely out of place for the time, but would look normal even today. BTW, the appearance we are talking about is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6JLKbSjH3E

No white border on mine but i think i have that one too

This mono pressing sounds great! It's loud with a quiet background! Mine was pressed well with no flaws, great dynamics and clarity. Solid mids and an overall balance mix. The original metal masters and tape were destroyed a long time ago for this release. With so many bad pressings of this album, it's great to hear what is possibly the best representation of it in mono. Really sounds to me how this record was supposed to be heard, right here.
Ramsey`s
What company pressed your copy? Was it sundazed? I'm thinking about buying it but am not sure of the quality.
Modigas
In search of an original sleeve for this record. If you have one to sell for a fair price please let me know.
Mavegelv
I have two originals but the other one has very slightly different cover. Different shade of color on label and cover and some small detail on cover are slightly different. Anyone know about this ?
Mardin
i would like to see photos of the original california pressing ? is it possible. Could not find myself here on discogs sure i also didnt find any info about it looking on the web doesnt nobody have it then?? :D
NI_Rak
Why they would press the album in California I'm not sure. Possibly financial reasons for an independent label. The 1st mono pressing was pressed by Rainbo Records, which as you may know resides in California. I have the two slightly different records. One is missing the tanner address on the back of the sleeve. I got this information from the charly psychedelic sounds deluxe cd liner notes. Check it out.
iSlate
I dont think so. Why would a texan company press the album in california ? and didnt they come back from cali to texas fairly quickly ? like 1966 october. Never heard of a california pressing.
Ienekan
Hey. I noticed that as well with my two mono originals. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the first true pressing was pressed in California. The sleeve does not have the San Antonio tanner address in the bottom. Later pressed or printed in San Antonio like all other IA albums. Only mono copies are like this.
Isha
this was also released with red clear vinyl.

oops. It's already added...

I bought this version in an import store in Belgium in februari 1986. As far as I know they sold a lot of US-import garagerock.
Blackbeard
I believe this is a Greek pirate copy though I can't confirm that
Malahelm
sounds like crap :(
Axebourne
Sounds awful. Tiring to listen to. Not worth the mp3.
Maman
That's not how they sound like. I even have a CD that sounds a lot better. Here I get constant crackle on right channel and plenty of vocal distortion in comparison. Today's reissues are a fkin hell to navigate. Buying new is taking a bigger chance than buying used pre-digital versions.
Lesesshe
Thats how they sound like
Rit
Does anyone know anything about this edition?
Androlhala
I seen an absolutely MINT copy of this at a record fair going for £500. The seller said the blank back makes this collectable as most stereo copy's had the pyramid on the back. He showed me this website http://www.bsnpubs.com/texas/internationalartists.html. Which shows it is defo a stereo first pressing.
Kajikus
does anybody have this issue and can tell me how the soudnquality is? thanks
Saimath
good sound. bought it on a fair with that one several years ago:https://www.discogs.com/de/13th-Floor-Elevators-Easter-Everywhere/release/4820400
Chilele
I'm pretty sure this is the version I have and it sounds great to me. However the version I was used to before was an old cd that had really horrible sound quality. I don't know how it sounds compared to eg the original vinyl releases or more official re-releases
Prinna
My copy says:Matrix / Runout (Side A stamped): LP 5218-A WGINRP 3 (inside a circle)Matrix / Runout (Side B stamped): LP 5218-B WGINRP 5 (inside a circle)Does anybody know something about that?
Fomand
Are you sure those markings are stamped? On my copy they are etched. Basically they tell that the lacquers were cut by Wes Garland @ Nashville Record Productions. (Somebody might want to add that info with the release...?)
Nightscar
I have the same, but it is handwritten, not stamped
Kikora
My brand new copy has these identical surface lines going around the radius of the record's center. It makes this annoying skip sound every time the record makes a 360 degree spin. Do note, it was a brand new, sealed copy. Does anyone else have this issue?
Brazil
Me Neither
Iraraeal
Finally, someone has encountered this. I'm guessing we just got unlucky? Perhaps a certain amount of copies in the pressing had this issue. Also, just to note, this problem does not occur on the B-side.
riki
I have Marmolade's problem also. Don't like this copy very much. Great album anyway.-
Doath
I don't have any sort of lines or noise on mine, and mine is the 2008-issued 5218.
Cesar
You do have the 2008 copy, right? And when I say skip, I mean more like a static sound... It still plays through.
Bladebringer
I don't have the problem you describe.
