Description
NOTE: All LP’s have been played on a Technics turntable and hand cleaned with commercial vinyl record solution ( MOFI One) prior to listing.
All records are shipped in LP record boxes with the record and inner sleeve outside of the Jacket and all items placed in plastic outer sleeve. When the original inner sleeve is unavailable all records will be in a new anti static sleeve.
NOTE ON RETURNS, PLEASE READ: we do not consider the odd pop, tick, light background here and there, a tiny skip on a track as flaws on 40+ yr old used vinyl, unless rated NM, they're the norm & most collectors/buyers are well aware of this, we don't expect returns on this kind of thing, however we will take returns in the same packaging for a refund if you're not happy with the minor aging, the buyer pays return shipping in accordance with ebay policy. If however we inadvertently mis-describe the record origin (pressing, label, originality etc) or our visual grading misses a major playing flaw that makes the record virtually unlistenable such as repeated skipping or groove sticking, ongoing loud worn background or loud regular pops/noises then we will pay for return shipping as long as this checks out on our player when we receive the item back.

Make It Big is the second studio album from British pop duo Wham!, released in 1984. It was recorded at Studio Miraval in Southern France to escape the press and enable George Michael to work peacefully[1] and mixed at Good Earth Studios in London and Marcadet Studios in Paris.[5] In comparison to their earlier work, the duo had more control over the album's production, as George Michael became the sole credited producer, a position he would subsequently hold on all future releases until the group split in 1986. The album was a critical and commercial success, hitting number one in both the UK and the US and spawning four singles, all topping the charts on both sides of the Atlantic.
Outside the US, "Careless Whisper" was credited as a George Michael solo effort upon its release as a single, while "Everything She Wants" was released as a double A-side with "Last Christmas" which would later appear on the following album Music from the Edge of Heaven.
It was certified 6× Platinum in the US within weeks of the album's tenth anniversary.
