This is the ULTRA-RARE ALMOST UNFINDABLE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING WITH WHITE (CREME) LABELS AND BROWN INK ON THE LABELS (only about 200 made of the first pressing. second pressing has beige labels and red ink) of the Bad Brains first release, the "Pay to Cum / Stay Close to me" 7" produced by Jimmi Quidd and released in 1980 on Bad Brain records. Not only is it the super-rare first pressing with white (creme) labels with brown lettering but the sleeve is also SIGNED BY BASSPLAYER DARRYL JENIFER (SEE PICTURES!) Darryl signed "Jah Lives" as well has his name! Stamped in the inner grooves is the words "Masterdisk", "(PR)" , "RL" and "MOD-001-A" on the A side and "Masterdisk", "(PR)" and "MOD-001-A" "MOD-001-B" on the B-Side, proving it to be a truly original first pressing! A side features the legendary "Pay to Cum" track, very intense 1:33 of pure energy and side B features the excellent 2:29 "Stay Close to Me". Labels also have the Bad Brain Records address on Gaither Street in Hilcrest Heights, Maryland (The house the band had bought there, in suburban Maryland). The first all-black punk rock bands and also one of the fastest, the Bad Brains were originaly from Washington, D.C., but had to move to New York City shortly after releasing this record since they were blacklisted by most area clubs, an event that was documented in another legendary song, "Banned in D.C. "! On this ultra-rare release, the Bad Brains were: H.R. Paul Hudson (H.R. means "Hunting Rod" and that was his childhood nickname) on vocals, his brother Earl Hudson on drums, Darryl Jenifer on bass and Gary "Dr. Know" Miller on guitar. Of course, this is a must-have for any serious punk collector! Vinyl in NM condition and sleeve in MINT CONDITION (SEE PICTURE) and don't forget, it is signed by Bad Brains bass player Darryl Jenifer and I certify the authenticity of the signature or your money back!
