Lot #8: Eagles - One Of These Nights LP 1975 Canadian 1st Pressing Embossed Cover

Highly collectible first Canadian Pressing of the Eagles' landmark 1975 studio album, One of These Nights. Distributed by WEA Music of Canada, Ltd., this specific copy features the rare, highly sought-after 7ES-1039A-1A-2-G matrix runout variant, solidifying its status as an early-generation archive pressing. Artist: Eagles Title: One Of These Nights Label: Asylum Records Catalog Number: 7ES-1039 Released: June 10, 1975 Cover Art: unlike standard reissue flat-prints, this authentic 1975 Canadian first edition features a distinct embossed textured matte cover across the eagle wings and lettering. The striking centrepiece features a painted cow skull adorned with real eagle wings, conceptualized by renowned Texas artist Boyd Elder (also known as "El Chingadero"). This image became a defining aesthetic for the band's mid-70s peak. It bridges their early cosmic cowboy themes with the darker, sleeker themes explored in this album. This record holds immense historical value as the band's first #1 album, representing their shift from country-rock into global pop-rock superstars.
