Description
An extensive collection of live Joy Division recordings. The rare ORIGINAL. Double LP. Cover is in VG condition: Is noticeably worn around the edges and has ringwear and some fading. No marks (though some black ink smudges from the pressing plant on back - see photos). Records are in VG+ condition with only light hairlines. Labels are clean (plain white) and unworn. Great for your Joy Division Collection!
This is the original first release from the original pressing plates. Because of this it DOES contain Shadowplay as track six on side B. All re-issues were pressed by the manufacturing company without the knowledge of the original bootlegger. The original pressing plates were either lost or damaged and almost all reissues except a later confirmed clear vinyl version failed to include Track 6 on Side B - "Shadowplay". This first release is known to sound more powerful with more bass fidelity. A later generation re-recording was likely used in the manufacture of all re-issues that did not include Shadowplay.
This first release pressed on black vinyl.
Labels are blank white with either no writing or hand written labels in German.
Matrix run-off etchings on first edition contain hyphens (Re-issues do not). Sides 1 and 4 are stamped, sides 2 and 3 are hand written. Misspelled C1 track 'She's lost Kontrol'.

All records come from my collection and have been very well looked after since purchase.
I am a collector myself and grade conservatively. Returns accepted (but only if I have missed some fault with the record, i.e. record does not live up to description/photos). Will package well. Bid with confidence!
