New - Bad Brains - Self Titled (Punk Note Edition) - LP

Audio Mastered by Dave Gardner at Infrasonic Mastering and Pressed at Furnace; Includes Alternate Packaging Artwork from Designer John Yates Paying Homage to Blue Note's Reid Miles and Francis Wolff

Recorded in 1981 and released on (then) cassette-only label ROIR on February 5, 1982, many fans refer to Bad Brains' self-tiled debut studio album as "The Yellow Tape" because of its yellow packaging. Though Bad Brains had recorded the 16 song Black Dots album in 1979 and the 5-song Omega Sessions EP in 1980, the ROIR cassette was the band's first release of anything longer than a single. In coordination with the band, Org Music has overseen the restoration and remastering of the iconic Bad Brains' recordings. The audio was mastered by Dave Gardner at Infrasonic Mastering and pressed at Furnace Record Pressing. This "Punk Note" edition comes with alternate packaging artwork from designer John Yates (Stealworks). The artwork is a nod to Reid Miles and Francis Wolff, and their amazing work at the Blue Note label.
