Description

This is the original UK 1987 vinyl release of the brilliant album "Strangeways, Here We Come" by The Smiths. It sadly turned out to be their last studio album. 

The record is in excellent condition. There are few light marks to the outer sleeve. Please refer to images for detail and just let me know if you have any questions or would like to see further pics. 

I'm gutted to be selling it but I need to offload some records as I'm saving with my partner for a deposit on a house.

Can post outside UK too - please message me with your location for rates.
