Description
Crass ?– The Feeding Of The Five Thousand: Small Wonder ?– WEENY 2 first press 1978 LP with no cover. Rare first press but with no sleeve, though I notice you can buy new reproductions of the poster sleeve on ebay! This was from a fantastic collection that had unfortunately been flooded, I have cleaned the record up, there is still some watermarks on the vinyl and some damage to one of the labels, it plays pretty well.
Vinyl: VG, a few light scuffs and surface marks, nothing serious, plays well. Matrix: Porky says it's OK! Weeny 2 A3 / Pecko Weeny 2B
- Happy to combine postage at no extra cost in UK (up to 2kg), approx £2 each extra item internationally.
- Details of specific pressing and track details are below.

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition. 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.

Notes
First pressing with no record review on the inner sheet in 12" size with liner notes, credits and lyrics.Front of the inner sheet reads "621984" with not crossed out or replaced numbers. This (supposedly) refers to the number of years until 1984, '6' when the first insert was produced and '5' by the time the second appeared. Black bar that covers lyrics to Asylum on inner sheet has smaller typed font (2nd press is hand written and takes up the entirety of black bar)
Jacket, LP, matrixes, and labels are virtually identical between initial presses, and there is disagreement about whether the were made at the same, or different, times. Both initial presses feature a blank, white spine, and a back cover that is printed upside-down relative to the front cover. Both have plain white inner sleeves with rounded corners reading "uk patent no. 1,125,555.

External Information:
A1 was meant to be the track 'Asylum', vocals credited to Eve Libertine on the inner sheet, but no company would press the record with this track. It was replaced with silence. The lyrics for this track on the insert are covered with a black bar with an explanation:
THE SOUND OF FREE SPEECH
Once again, the violent majority assert their bigoted reality through the silencing of others. ASYLUM, an antichrist/feminist statement, read by Eve Libertine, has been erased because of the refusal by any company to press the record if it was left intact. We apologise. For a copy of the words, or a cassette copy of the censored track, send a stamped, addressed envelope, plus cassette if required, to CRASS c/o Small Wonder.
