Description
CRASS - THE FEEDING OF THE 5000 UK ORIGINAL 1978 12" SINGLE.
THIS IS ONE OF THE ORIGINAL 5000 UK FIRST PRESSINGS OF THIS CLASSIC PUNK 12" VINYL EP
RELEASED ON SMALL WONDER RECORDS.WEENY 2.
I RESEARCHED THIS EP BEFORE I LISTED IT AS I WANTED TO BE SURE THAT IT WAS A RARE FIRST PRESSING.I FOUND A VERY HELPFUL REVIEW ON GOOGLE BY HUFFAM1812 WHICH LISTED THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THIS FIRST PRESSING AND THE LATER ONES.I AM INDEBTED TO THEM FOR THE INFO.
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF FACTORS THAT MAKE THIS A FIRST PRESSING.THEY ARE AS FOLLOWS :
1) THE SIZE OF THE INSERT IS SMALLER ON THE FIRST PRESSINGS.ON LATER PRESSINGS IT WAS MADE BIGGER SO THAT IT WAS THE SAME SIZE AS THE COVER.
2).THE NUMBERS ON THE OUTSIDE PAGE OF THE INSERT,BELOW THE CRASS LOGO,READ 621984,ON LATER PRESSINGS THE 6 WAS CROSSED OUT AND HAD A NUMBER 5 NEXT TO IT.
3).INSIDE THE INSERT WHERE THE LYRICS ARE PRINTED,THERE IS A BLACK BOX COVERING THE LYRICS TO THE FIRST TRACK "ASYLUM".THE FIRST PRESSING CONTAINS ONLY A SHORT SECTION OF PRINTED TEXT APOLOGISING FOR THE TRACK HAVING BEEN "ERASED" BECAUSE NOBODY WOULD PRINT THE ALBUM WITH THIS TRACK ON IT.ON LATER VERSIONS THIS BOX IS FILLED WITH PRINTED HAND WRITING.
4).ON THE BACK COVER OF THE INSERT THERE ARE NO REVIEWS OF THE ALBUM BY GARY BUSHELL AND TONY PARSONS UNDER THE HEADING "REPUTATIONS IN JEOPARDY" AS THEY SIMPLY HADN'T BEEN WRITTEN WHEN THIS FIRST PRESSING WAS RELEASED.
MATRIX NUMBERS ARE ; SIDE A - WEENY 2 - A 3 AND PORKY SEZ IT'S OK ! (ETCHED) , SIDE B - WEENY 2 - B AND PECKO (ETCHED).
DISC IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THERE IS SOME DUST BUT I AM NOT GOING TO TOUCH IT.I WILL LEAVE THAT TO THE NEW OWNER.
