Description

ULTRA RARE (and virtually unplayed) copy of minimal synthpop single released in 1982 on Gargoyle Records indie label.
Plain paper cover and vinyl both in excellent original condition. The single was given to me when released and has been stored carefully ever since (may have been played once or twice when issued but that's all).
Slight shelf wear around edges of cover but it's in otherwise nice original condition.
Blue and white paper labels, with gargoyle head on one side (see photos), are perfect.
Vinyl is lovely and glossy with just a few small surface marks on the runout (probably caused by slipping in and out of the sleeve).
All in all, a lovely collectable for anyone who's interested in late 70s/early 80s indie label curios like this - or just loves a funky synth pop classic.
