U2 - 2 Sides Live (Two Sides Live) - Rare Warner Brothers Live LP 1981

$

70

This is the hard-to-find U2 "2 Sides Live" release from 1981, released as The Warner Brothers Music Show. These were sent to radio stations for airing and were never officially made available to the public. The recording comes from The Paradise Theater in Boston, Massachusetts on March 6, 1981. This record has been bootlegged several times over the years, but this is a rare original (and official) pressing. This comes from the collection of a friend who is a big U2 collector. I am selling this on his behalf as he downsizes his collection. Tracks include:

Side 1:
The Ocean
11 O'Clock Tick Tock
Touch
An Cat Dubh
Into The Heart
The Electric Co.
Things To Make And Do

Side 2:
Stories For Boys
Twilight
I Will Follow
Out Of Control
11 O'Clock Tick Tock
The Ocean

The vinyl is in NM (near mint) condition, showing only the faintest sleeve rubs on the record that do not affect play. Otherwise, the LP is still nice and glossy and doesn't show any scratches or groove wear. There is an audible pop on Side 1, Track 2. My friend has had a few copies of these over the years and says that pop is on all of the copies he's owned. That indicates it's something that happened during mastering or pressing the LPs, not a condition issue with this particular copy. The outer sleeve is in very good condition, showing light shelf wear, including a bump to the spine. Otherwise, there are no seam splits, creases, or ring wear. Photos show condition pretty well.

Will ship Media Mail to US customers for $4.00, First Class to Canada for $15.00, and First Class to the rest of the world for $25.00. Tracking is included. Priority Mail is also available which includes insurance. Actual cost of record will be declared on customs forms. I will not falsify forms, nor will I check off the item as "gift" to skirt around any customs fees. No exceptions.

I used new record mailers that are specially designed for shipping vinyl. They are reinforced in the corners to prevent dings and bumps to the sleeves during shipment.

Thank you for looking!
