RANDY HOLDEN POPULATION II – Mega Rare 1970 USA Heavy Psych Rock LP £880 Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer

Here is a the mega rare 1970 USA release of Randy Holden – Population 11, issued on the very obscure Hobbit Records (HB 5002). The legend has it that it was never officially released as most original copies have a deleted `drill hole` in them. Rumours persist of just 80 copies being pressed, as a result there have been a lot of pirate copies made over the years. The original can usually be identified by the typical thick US card sleeve with poor matt finish which in turn will usually show ringwear plus of course the drill hole, the label also will have distributed exclusively by GRT Records. A copy sold for £882 in 2015 however copies have been known to reach over £1000! Musically with sixteen 200 watt Sunn amplifiers blasting away it is no wonder the music has been compared to Black Sabbath in style. Why not subscribe as I post rarities regularly!
