    I just picked this up in an antique store at a very good price. The record is pristine and sounds great. The cover has 90% of their banana still on it (missing the tip). Water damage on the right of the cover (front and back) but just a couple inches in... before the banana. I can't believe I actually got a copy without having to spend a lot of $$$. Super happy about it.

      Upset to find out this was my copy that I thought was the East Coast black censored version. I wish I knew the value of this one. Mine has full banana. But still music is what matters. I hope other people get ahold of this album regardless of version. (;
