Description

This single was produced to promote The Smiths first album..
UK 7" promo [Rough Trade R61DJ]
The album was also promoted with the help a radio-only single featuring two songs from the album: "Still Ill" on the a-side, and "You've Got Everything Now" on the flip. Unlike many other Smiths promos of that format, special care was taken in this one's design. The labels feature a tall pink 'A' across them, obviously inspired by Morrissey's beloved singles from the 1960s. The record comes in a plain black paper die-cut record bag. Most copies were paired with a press release from Scott Piering, but most of these have since been lost. Some copies have a small sticker on the sleeve giving the contact information of a plugger, presumably Scott Piering.

The vinyl and labels are in excellent condition, having been played several times but extremely well looked-after; it has only superficial 'hairline' surface marks in a few places which can be seen if held to the light. 

The outer sleeve is the plain black thin die-cut sleeve in which the record would have been sent out, and is in ok condition it has a few minor nicks. Finally, the scarce press release is also instrong excellent condition, with no writing, tears or other signs of damage. It has only very light signs of handling and has been folded neatly from its original pairing with the record; its appearance is in keeping with its age, but it has clearly been preserved very well indeed. Please see the accompanying photos for more detail..

My sister worked in a record store in the 1980's and I am selling this and other items for her. She collected a number of rare and hard to find records..

If you have any questions please contact me - and thanks for looking!
