Description

'Lincoln' - first pressing of They Might Be Giants' album on One Little Indian.
For sale is a first UK pressing of the second album, 'Lincoln' by They Might Be Giants on One Little Indian Records (TPLP12) released in 1989. The record is in Excellent condition, as is the sleeve, though that is marred slightly by a sticker mark (see pictures). The album comes with its original inner sleeve, which is also in Excellent condition. 
AllMusic give the album 4.5 stars, stating: 'Cutting away some of the artier aspects of their debut, They Might Be Giants craft another wildly eclectic and geekily fun collection of alt-pop with Lincoln. In general, the album displays greater musical ambition than its predecessor, especially since the duo have trimmed many of the weirder excesses of the debut. Without such arty trappings, their gift for irresistible pop hooks becomes all the more clear, with "Ana Ng," "Purple Toupee," the Latin shuffle of "The World's Address," "Santa's Beard," the surprisingly affecting "They'll Need a Crane," and the lounge jazz of "Kiss Me, Son of God" standing out among the 18 songs.'
All records are from my own collection. I have roughly 150albums for sale, which I will be putting on Ebay in smaller lots over the nextfew months. In general, I will put a low opening bid price – around £2.00 - as Iwish to sell these records (so I can clear some shelves and use any profit tobuy more). The exception will be where Ebay recommends a higher opening bidprice. In that case, the opening bid price will always be lower than theaverage Discogs price or the last price the record sold for on Discogs. If youhave any questions, please message me.
