Description

ABOUT THIS RECORD

First Strike was our in-house label that put out 23 records in the late 80's to early 90's. This CHAIN OF STRENGTH 7" was licensed from Foundation Records for European release. This is the 1st Press: blue cover and is on blue vinyl with black label; limited release of 1500, this is number 616 but the number is crossed out for some reason (see below), maybe it was a duplicate number? 

First Strike Records (England) 1st press : 15 black vinyl test presses 221 white vinyl 1264 blue vinyl Blue sleeve. Total adds up nicely to 1500. 2nd press : 500 black vinyl Red sleeve. 3rd press : 500 clear vinyl Green sleeve.

ABOUT US

We started selling records at our original Hindley premises around 1985 moving to Wigan in 1987, first to Market St/Petticote Lane then Hallgate and finally to Mesnes St in May 1992. As we concentrated more on other aspects of our business we stopped selling records around 2000. All our stock was boxed up and is still intact. 

After a piece by Laura Barton about Record Store Day in the Guardian and all the overwhelming feedback I had the idea to open up for just 10 days in May 2012 at 53 Mesnes St with our original till, record deck, posters and even staff! Unbelievably we managed to put on 4 in-store gigs as well in this 10 days. The whole thing turned out amazing and my thanks go out to the many people who helped and came down.
