Description
Offered for sale is a limited edition yellow vinyl pressing of Steely Dan’s Aja, released in Canada in 1978.
About this pressing: This yellow vinyl pressing of Aja is an original 1978 issue on the ABC label.
The cover is VG++ with faint general wear and slight wear on the corners.
Unlike many copies of this album, this cover has no cutout marks.
The custom inner sleeve is VG with a few wrinkles and a small split at the bottom.
The yellow vinyl disc is M- and looks unplayed.
A nice (and nice-sounding) copy of a classic LP.
While the primary appeal of this pressing will be the fact that it’s pressed on yellow vinyl, it does sound great, and that’s a nice bonus.
The matrix numbers on the disc are:
- Side 1: 9022-1006-A
- Side 2: 9022-1006-B
Anice copy of a terrific LP.
Background: Steely Dan’s Aja is regarded by many as the band’s best work, and it’s also a popular title among audiophiles. Early pressings are sought out because the master tapes to this (and other) Steely Dan albums were lost sometime in the mid-1980s, and subsequent reissues simply don’t sound as good as earlier pressings.
During the late 1970s, collectors were showing a lot of interest in picture discs and colored vinyl, and record companies around the world issued a number of popular titles in both formats. In Canada, Aja was released on colored vinyl as both red and yellow vinyl pressings in 1978.
