An absolutely superb copy of Dif Juz's only full length album released in 1985 on 4AD.

Produced by Robin Guthrie and with vocals by Elizabeth Frasier on 'Love Insane'.



The condition of the playing surfaces is superb, both sides are beautifully glossy, dust and fingerprint free.


The vinyl looks to be in almost as good condition as the day it was pressed.

There are only a couple of incredibly light surface marks on the B side, hardly visible at all to be honest,

and one extremely light hairline on the A side. 


The outer sleeve has not, I'm afraid, stood the test of time as well as the vinyl has.

There is considerable damage to the top of the spine and the top left hand corner of the front cover.

This is where my cat decided to use it as a scratching post.

Please see the listing images.

There is also a little damage to the bottom of the open edge of the front cover.

There is some sun bleaching to the print along the spine and top edge.


The original inner sleeve is in very good condition.

Discogs mentions that it came in a solid black inner sleeve, but mine is white.

Bought and had the album from new since 85, so not quite sure what has happened here.


So if you can forgive the damage to the cover this is a quite superb copy of the record itself.

I have put a low starting price for this album in such great condition due to the cover damage.






Before photographing, each record was cleaned using a Knosti disco-antistat record cleaner using a solution

of 1:8 parts Isopropyl Alcohol to De-ionised water, with a couple of drops of a surfactant.

If necessary, records were given a hands on clean, as bellow, followed by a second run through the Knosti.


1 - Removal of any surface dust with a light brushing over with a carbon fibre and velvet disc cleaning pad

2 - Deep cleaning with large (Big Fudge) velvet pad and cleaning solution

3 - A final brushing with a Pro-Ject carbon fibre record brush.


I am a professional photographer by trade, and have gone to great lengths to light and photograph covers, inner sleeves

and the vinyl themselves in such a way as to show, as accurately as possible, the actual condition of all.

Rest assured that what you see is exactly what will be despatched to you if you are the successful winner of each listing.


Happy to take returns, So please, feel free to bid with confidence.

I personally wouldn't bid on a pre-owned record without the option to return it if I felt that the seller hadn't been

totally truthful and transparent in their description of it, or that on receipt it didn't live up to my expectations. 

And I do not expect you to do so either. 


Unless otherwise stated every record was purchased by myself from new and only ever played

by myself on my own deck and with as expensive a cartridge as I could afford at the time.


And finally, because Mr or Mrs  Poasty may not handle your record with the same care and reverence that you or I would,

I will dispatch in a specialised corrugated cardboard record mailing outer, and if I feel even more protection is required

I will also include two extra sheets of 3mm corrugated cardboard for added safety and protection.



Thanks for taking the time to read this and for showing an interest

in giving a new home to one of my records.


I have other listings live right now and will be adding new ones on a regular basis,

so please do take a peak and stay tuned for more. I will combine postage, so please do ask.
