Description

The Police "Ghost in the Machine" 12" Vinyl album

1981 - Very Rare First UK Edition

NM condition - played once or twice when new, then resealed and stored indoors since.

 Ghost in the Machine is the 4th studio album by English rock band The Police, released on October 2, 1981, by A&M Records.  Recorded in Montserrat and Quebec with producer Hugh Padgham, it marked a shift towards a denser, more technological sound featuring keyboards and saxophones, while topping the UK charts and hitting #2 in the US.
Unlike most eBay UK market albums which cost $25-$35 to ship, mine ship from Texas not UK and are NOT SUBJECT TO IMPORT TARIFFS - so no nasty extra tariff surprises from the shipper!

Photos are of actual record.


I was a club DJ during the 1970s and 1980s in the UK, and always bought the latest LPs as soon as they were released.


As soon as I got them home I would copy them onto cassette for general use so most of my vinyl only ever got one or two plays on the turntable.

I moved to California in 1995 and then to Texas in 2012. My entire 2000 plus treasured vinyl collection followed me around the world and has been meticulously stored upright in a climate controlled environment for the last forty years or so.

I recently decided to let my fantastic and eclectic collection go and you will find many highly desirable and collectable records that you will be proud to own and play for yourself.

All my records come with a brand new clear plastic outer cover for long lasting protection.
