Young & Old 2Young & OldYoung The-Last-Album GLCOriginally released in late 1974/early 1975 with these two front and back inserts.

 

Young N GLC Bakersfield

A reissue of the following titles: The Last Record Album (TAKRL 1917) and Contrabands‘s Neil Young & Crazy Horse (CBM 3940)

 

Since we are on the topic of Neil Young bootleg vinyl, I believe Vicky Vinyl can be credited for at least re-pressing this one as well (it seems that it still is not entirely clear who was responsible for the GLC titles – I always assumed it was Ken – GLC certainly did a lot of reissues):

Review from Allmusic.com:

“When this bootleg LP was recorded live at the Roxy Theater — a nightclub on West Hollywood’s famous Sunset Strip — on August 12, 1976, the Ramones weren’t ready to headline the Hollywood Palladium and were still concentrating on small clubs. But the Queens residents did have one self-titled album out on Sire and had acquired a following that was small but extremely enthusiastic — even then, they were regarded as one of New York’s most important punk bands. The sound quality on this vinyl LP isn’t fantastic, but it’s decent, and the album definitely captures the freshness and sense of reckless fun that characterized the Ramones in 1976. When the Ramones tear into “Beat on the Brat,” “Blitzkrieg Bop,” “53rd and 3rd,” “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue” and other irreverent classics, you’re reminded just how vital and exciting early punk could be. A few years after Live at the Roxy 1976 came out, the contents of this LP became half of the two-LP bootleg At Your Birthday Party.”

And that was all of the Wizardo series (with the exception of Pete Townshend’s Classified – wrmb 368, which will be added later when we get to the TMoQ series).
