Rare Sensational Fix book complete with 2 x 7" vinyl records, by Sonic Youth. Encased in a huge hardback book - very heavy!
One single is on clear vinyl, the other is black. Both records are unplayed, and the book is near mint, if not as new.
This is an exceptionally rare first edition. Not to be confused with the CD version.

The iconic postpunk band Sonic Youth is famed for blurring musical
genres, veering from thundering rock to dismantled experimentalism, and
expanding the possibilities of the electric guitar. "What we're doing is
always inventing itself. I have no terminology for it," guitarist
Thurston Moore observes. Moore and his bandmates Kim Gordon, Lee Ranaldo
and Steve Shelley have also, over the course of 27 years since they
first started playing together, more quietly engaged in
multidisciplinary solo efforts and collaborations with visual artists,
filmmakers, designers and other musicians.
Numerous artists, from
Richard Prince and Raymond Pettibon to Gerhard Richter have contributed
artwork for Sonic Youth album covers, and Moore, Ranaldo and Gordon in
particular have collaborated with visual artists; but the group has also
produced a large amount of great ephemera over the decades.
This
comprehensive 784-page volume--which includes two 7-inch records with
unpublished songs by each member, album covers, band portraits and
documentary photos, many of which have never been published before--is a
must for fans and anyone wanting to connect the dots between New York's
various scenes. It features writings by band members and contributions
by a host of other luminaries, including Richard Hell, Mike Kelley,
Jutta Koether, Alan Licht, Lydia Lunch and John Miller.
First edition, long sold out.
This rare book and record set will be sent within a sturdy box for added protection.
