See my other items for sale and save money on combined postage.  I will be listing some great vinyl (some rare) by Can, Kraftwerk, Stereolab, ESG, Royksopp, Scientist, Plastikman, Fischerspooner, Tompaulin and The Associates.

This is the original 1st press of ESG 'A South Bronx Story' on the Universal Sound label.  The album comes with an information insert.  The cover is still in near mint condition with some light scuffing (see photos).  The vinyl has 1st press matrix numbers (see below).  The labels are in excellent condition with minimal signs of spindle marks.  The vinyl looks near mint, really bright and clean with virtually no marks except one small light mark on side one.  Playback is superb with virtually no surface noise.  This is really nice, well looked after vinyl hard to find in such superb condition.

Album notes:
Rare original first press release on Universal Sound records from 2000
Pressed on 2 x vinyl for better sound reproduction
Album information insert
Side one produced by Martin Hannett and includes the tracks originally released on Factory records (You're No Good, U.F.O., Moody)
Labels with minimal spindle marks (barely played)
The cover and vinyl looks near mint and sounds superb, a brilliant copy hard to find in this barely played condition (see photos)

In general the vinyl is in near mint condition.  It looks very clean, bright and virtually unmarked.  Virtually no surface noise.  Excellent playback.

I tend to be over critical of a records condition as it is not my intention to misrepresent what I am selling.  I want the buyer to feel what they have bought is as described although not everyones opinion of its condition will be the same as mine.

If you have any doubts or questions about this record, please ask me and I will try to be as helpful as I can.
