Description
Bad Luck -Le Motard/Terre De Feu-Self released (1981 Switzerland)
Condition: EX/EX (includes inner bag with sponsors and "Dragons" motorcycle club membership application card!)
“I’m a biker, not a delinquent” goes the chorus of this misplaced slice of not so-hell-bent-for-leather Biker Thug Rock. The fact that the band came from Yverdon a centre for watchmaking in Switzerland rather than Hicksville Oregon or Detroit partly explains their safe positioning. However why does the singer spout theses inanities with such venom, why do the guitars roar louder than any Japanese bike ever could? Why is the performance so bestial and why do they sound like they really MEAN it man?.
Since my original review on Purepop contact was made and it seems that 100 or less copies were made of this single
Hear a full version of Le Motard

Grading. I don’t use the term Mint. I don’t believe that records manufactured over 30 years ago, even if unplayed, can be called mint.
Grading: Record/cover
EX: Means either “near mint” to some light marks with hardly any noticeable noise. Sleeve has no or only minor wear.
VG: Means slight background noise and more pronounced marks which do not affect the listening experience in a major way. Sleeve may be creased, some discolouring, the odd fraying, some ringwear, seam split and perhaps some writing.
G: Means noticeable clicks or pop, may have scratches, but doesn’t skip or jump. Sleeve may be ripped, tape repair, large writing, sticker removal damage etc...
Fair: Not a pleasant listening experience, the disc is damaged, just a stop gap before upgrading. Sleeve is badly damaged, not one to frame on the wall...
Poor: I don’t sell records in poor condition
Postage: Royal Mail have increased their costs again, however the postage costs for 2 singles is the same as for 1. I offer reduced postage if more than 1 record is purchased:
2 SINGLES AT COST OF 1 SINGLE.
After that: UK = 50p for each extra single, Europe =75p and USA/Asia = £1 extra. If ordering more than 1 single, please await my invoice
UK: £1.70 (first class), Europe: £3.80 (Airmail), Rest of the World: North America, Asia, Australia etc £4.90
All records sent out in professional mailers with 2 stiffeners. Records removed from sleeve if housed in picture sleeve. Postage costs include packaging.
Insurance strongly recommended for high priced items and compulsory for packages of a value of over £80. Insurance added at cost. I retain proof of postage for all items.
Payment: UK= PayPal or cheque (item sent when cheque has cleared). Overseas =PayPal only
