BUZZCOCKS - BEST IN GOOD FOOD

What might be a called a 'cheeky' 1978 release, bringing together a selection of Buzzcocks' live and studio performances from 'the early days'.

Rare, in a confidently strong Very Good++ condition, authentic analogue and 'low-key' recording methods used, which shows in the overall sound quality, it's the authentic sound of 'independent' label output, 1978 style. Know what I mean?

1978 12" vinyl  release on Edible Records, catalogue number GF 001

Includes live performances from the Electric Circus and John Peel Session tracks, plus more.

Matrix numbers -

Side One  - GF 001A

Side Two - GF 001B

Please read the record grading guide below and familiarize yourself with the grades used.

This 33 year old LP I have graded as being in Very Good++ condition. Both sides play through with no jumping, skipping or any other audio horrors. There are a few very minor hairline scratches that any LP of this vintage would accumulate over the passage of time, but they are mainly visual and have no real impact on playback, apart from a little bit of low-level, isolated and generally non-intrusive surface noise, again, common to any used vinyl, and shouldn't spoil your authentic listening experience!

Perfectly acceptable copy for vinyl-to-mp3 transfer, with a suitable turntable. Keep it real, but in a digital way!

The sleeve insert I have graded as being in Excellent- condition. Originally released in a plain plastic wallet, with an A4 photocopied sheet on gaudy orangey-yellow paper, with line drawings of Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto, with track details typed on Ye Olde Typewriter, and tha's exactly what's included here.

2 photographs uploaded to show aspects of the item, disc and insert, and also insert close-up.

Vinyl records are posted in sturdy Record Mailers with additional stiffeners inserted.

Please see the description below of how Record Collector Magazine grades vinyl. This is the system that I use.

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.

As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
