Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Armed Forces, Radar Records RAD14 Matrix Information (A Side: Stamped) : RAD 14 A2 | (B Side: Stamped) : RAD 14 B2
Matrix Information (A Side: Stamped) : SAM 90 A2 | (B Side: Stamped) : SAM 90 B2 ORIGINAL 1979 1st PRESS UK VINYL LP * 7" Live At Hollywood High (EX/EX) Die-cut fold-out sleeve including 4 postcards and Credits Inner Catchy pop on the outside, insightful poetry on the inside. A phenomenal collection of twelve perfect tracks by Britain's greatest ever songwriter backed by the superb Attractions. Studded with classic tunes, this album both cemented Costello's reputation and showed him branching out into some richer sounds. “Accidents Will Happen”  is the confession of a philandering lover. “Oliver’s Army” efers to Oliver Cromwell, but is really about the English army in Northern Ireland, which Costello visited during the Troubles. "Party Girl", a sort of sister to "Alison" with its "Abbey Road" fade to infinity. Green Shirt’ poetically approaches the late-seventies resurgence of Britain’s far-right. ‘Two Little Hitlers’ is a hidden gem

Grading scale: NM > EX > VG+ > VG > Good > Poor)

Cover: EX. SPINE: Clear, readable text | SEAMS: Top & Bottom intact without splits | CREASES: None or minor only | RING WEAR : None | DEFACING: None | (Actual images so you can check the condition)


Will combine for shipping if you buy mixed singles and albums. If you buy multiple items wait for invoice with correct shipping cost.

Records are packed well with extra protection and LPs taken out of sleeves. Double-LP usually works as 1LP but no extra protection.
