Standard 12 inch LP double album with spoken word/poetry tracks from the two poets. In original double sleeve and original paper record inner covers. First pressing of this famous artist's record. The cover was designed by Les Levine - the conceptual artist. Some wear to sleeve where the record inside has caused friction but the LPs appear to be unplayed. Very scarce.
