Description

Original UK first pressing of Magnets by The Vapors, released on Liberty Records in 1981. This copy features the correct Liberty labels, catalogue number LBG 30324, and matrix stamps A-1U / B-1U, confirming a first press. The vinyl is in near mint condition with a strong gloss and minimal signs of play, while the original picture sleeve is in excellent condition with only light handling wear. A sharp, underrated post-punk/new wave LP from the band best known for Turning Japanese, increasingly sought after by collectors of early 80s UK alternative and power pop.
