Matchbox - Rokkad Med Matchbox LP rockabilly Magnet Rare Iceland release 1982

Between 1981 and 1984 there was implied a luxury tax (85% I've heard) on vinyl imports in Iceland, which forced 4 Icelandic companies to start pressing vinyl in Iceland: labels Steinar, Fálkinn, Skífan and Spor.  The pressing company was named Alfa, and most covers were printed in firm Prisma, both of which are located in Hafnarfjörður, Iceland.  These were not big pressings, I've heard between 250 to 500 copies each title.  I have contacted 2 out of 3 ex company directors and they have no information on what they pressed or in what quantity, so no files are available but I believe I'm listing around 85% of what was pressed here.  There is going to be around 150 titles so check my other items and hopefully U will find something of interest.
