Malice In Wonderland

1980 A&M Records copy of Nazareth’s Malice In Wonderland, a single 33 1/3 RPM LP under catalog number SP-4799 and produced by Jeff Baxter. The pressing is not verified as a first pressing; the back cover carries the A&M logo, the SP-4799 number, the 1980 copyright line, and a visible 7502-14799-1 barcode.

The sleeve artwork has a strange, staged stillness: the front sets the Nazareth title block beside an outdoor banquet scene of bare trees, stone walls, onlookers, and a rising column of flame. The back cover turns darker, with a telescope scene, printed band and production credits, and a track list including “Big Boy,” “Heart’s Grown Cold,” “Holiday,” “Showdown At The Border,” and “Talkin’ To One Of The Boys.”

The jacket remains in shrink with visible front inventory stickers, including a yellow “E” sticker; condition is listed as Near Mint to Very Good Plus, with shrink tears, ringwear, and creasing noted. The vinyl itself is graded Mint/Near Mint. A vivid A&M-era Nazareth LP with strong cover presence and key label details intact.
