Description
I am selling a few things I can live without.-apologies for the starting prices but you know how hard these are to come by and the condition on all these is stunning. All records are sent out of the sleeves to avoid seam splits and sent in Cardboard mailers with cardboard stiffeners for protection. I always get a receipt /proof of posting from the Post Office.CHECK MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE GEMS FROM MY OWN COLLECTION.
What Can I say - probably the rarest Skinhead / Oi single . I dont know how many were made - probably only 500 but most were destroyed. It was released on the bands own ENEMY Records in 1985 and only sold locally at shows and to friends of the band. However the band split up not long after that and the singer (Stu) had all the records stored in his garden shed.He was then evicted from his house and all the records were thrown in a skip and dumped.Also the band could only afford to get 100 sleeves printed therefore some copies appear without sleeves.If anyone thinks that stock copies are going to surface sometime -think again , 2 band members are dead and this was legendary and selling for big money as early as 1990 so any surviving copies would have appeared long ago.This is the only the second copy I have seen - even the French Bootleg version on colored wax and different sleeve sells for $80 -$100. so do yourself a favour and grab this original pressing. This copy comes in a Reproduction sleeve that I got Professionally made from my own sleeve. The record itself is near mint. REALISTIC starting price !!!
