Pictorial cardboard cover, paper inner sleeve. A vinyl LP recording of Charles Bukowski reading at City Lights Poetry Theater in San Francisco, September, 1973. Original Pressing.

Signed on the back cover by City Lights co-founder Lawrence Ferlinghetti and longtime Bukowski girlfriend Linda King. Still sealed in original shrink wrap, though a piece has been peeled back to allow for the signings. Bukowski's first record, issued by the label of legendary San Francisco bookstore and press, City Lights. The audience is lively throughout the hour long reading, but Buk gives as good as he gets, with lively readings of some of his classic pieces. After the reading the party moved to Ferlighetti's apartment, where, typically, Buk and Linda got into a fight, resulting in a broken window.
