Cat: V 2141
Year: 1979 First Press ("Sally" version)
Vinyl Condition: VG+

Notes/Description: This version is rarer than hen's teeth. The story goes that "Sally" was removed at Richard Branson's request, as he apparently did not like the song. Some later intermediate pressings (prior to it being removed altogether), have "Sally" printed on the label and cover, but actually contain "Into Wonderland".The vinyl is glossy, Side 1 has a couple of obvious but cosmetic hairlines and Side 2 has a few faint lines. It plays superbly with a hint of crackle in the very quietest of passages.The sleeve has been well looked after with no wear or damage. It comes with the original photo inner sleeve also in NM condition. Matrix:
V 2141 A 2 ? [lyre logo] ?: MACK ONE 6, V 2141 B 1 ? [lyre logo] 4All albums have been play tested on my Pro-ject Debut III with Ortofon cartridge.
