This album is very rare on vinyl and this copy has survived the last 29 years very well indeed. The sleeve is in great solid shape. No tears, rips or seam splits. The spine is solid and there is no ring wear. The sleeve (which is printed on untreated card) has discoloured slightly over the years and the white areas show some slight foxing - but this is superficial and not at all structural. The picture inner (great band shot in b/w) is in wonderful shape - no creases or tears - lovely. The vinyl (in a separate paper inner) is in really healthy shape - there is barely a surface mark even in direct lamplight and it plays through without skips or jumps. Lovely 'Clockwork Orange' inspired Korova labels too.

A truly great and forgotten band - this LP is not just up there with the Bunnymen (with whom they are always compared), but better than anything they ever did. Epic British impassioned raincoat rock.

NB: All records sent out in stiff card mailers to ensure safe delivery anywhere in the world
