Doug Stanhope - Something to Take the Edge Off (vinyl)
The limited vinyl version of Doug Stanhope’s second album covers every hilarious topic from birth defects to suicide, performed live with Henry Phillips providing acoustic guitar accompaniment to help “take the edge off.” While the music offers a smoother pacing than the frenetic “Sicko,” the material doesn’t lose any of the bite for which Stanhope is renowned.
These are the last copies of this landmark album that are available to the public. This version has a reversed cover, black art on a white background, and the vinyl is black. 400 LPs of this color variation were pressed back in 2015, and these are a recent warehouse find of the remainder. Copies sell on eBay in excess of $200 regularly. Get it signed, and you're cooking with gas!
