Description
This is an unusual item, an original ’78 copy of ‘Occupied Territory/Skill’, the first The Desperate Bicycles release both in stereo and as a 45rpm 7”.
This is technically a double A-side, A1 and reverse 1A, and the production credit is to R.N.D.D; the band members initials.
This copy has bottom right corner staining but is otherwise spotless. The original 1st owner removed the disc to a separate contemporary paper sleeve to help protect the record, which is EX condition with one small mark; but nothing that ought to affect playback.
With immaculate labels and not a hint of ring-wear, I’m comfortable calling this a VG+ overall.
This is a great example of a rare 1st pressing, so grab a collector’s item on vinyl!
