Description

I bought this the week it was released in the old Virgin records in Bull St. Birmingham. These 12" 45rpm discs have the fattest sound I can remember hearing on vinyl.

Not a PIL fan I played it only a few times before it went into storage (along with the rest of my LPs) sometime in the mid-80s. When I opened the tin the air that escaped was more than 30 years old.

All three discs are intact, with track listing insert and paper dividers. There are no scratches on the vinyl, but there are one or two faint marks which were probably a result of the manufacturing process; pressings at that time were on the flimsy side.

The metal case has some oxidised fingerprints on the outside, but the inside is clean and shiny.
