Punk/Power Pop: BLUE SHOES Someone Like 7" 1980 US KBD

FEEL FREE TO MAKE AN OFFER ON THIS ONE, although the buy it now price is reasonable.  I need to move a bunch of music, memorabilia, and movies so I am fairly flexible at this time. 

BLUE SHOES Someone Like You 7" EP. Rare and killer power pop/punk 45 from Phoenix, Arizona (1980) on the Living Room label. The sleeve has a few wrinkles, and a bit of wear at the bottom, with a 1/2 split on seam, but the record hasn't been stored in the sleeve for years, so it's not really noticeable unless you look for it. The vinyl is as if it's never been played. Check out partial mp3 samples here: www.zero-street.com/blueshoes.mp3   You can also find several videos on YouTube.  Tracks are Someone Like You, Better, and Hey.  Brings me back to the rockin' fun at The Star System and Lil Abner's in Tempe back in the day.  I remember them opening for The Talking Heads at Neeb Hall in Tempe at ASU.  TH borrowed Blue Shoes' equipment for the show, and the monitors were feeding back at David Byrne.  In the middle of the Heads' set, Byrne kicked one monitor offstage in frustration.  A roadie picked it up and placed it back on stage.  Byrne kicked it off again, and a near riot ensued.  Blue Shoes' road crew tore them down as they played, ending one of the best(and shortest) shows I've ever been lucky enough to witness.   And here I am, telling you the stories I told my boys and, in a year or two, my grandchildren. Holy crap....

The two most recent copies of this "modern music" classic (power pop, to be more accurate) have gone for $126 and $128 on ebay.  I have more unplayed copies, but this is the only one I have with a picture sleeve. I'll dig around but I'm sure this is it.  Phoenix music history, one of the best punk scenes anywhere---we held our own with L.A. back then. 

Please check my listings for out of print and rare quality vinyl, as well as sealed and/or hard to find cds and cd lots.  Bid with confidence as I back up everything I sell, as my feedback attests.  In the rare event that there is a problem, there isn't anything we can't work out satisfactorily.  Even though  shipping may be listed as media, a first class upgrade is always made if it's economical. 

Overseas buyers, please read all terms and shipping information before bidding.  Absolutely NO Shipments to France..no exceptions!!!  Bidders from France will have bids cancelled-sorry, but too much trouble from over there.  Between deadbeats and whiners, it's not worth sending anything to France.

Payment is due within seven days of an auction's closing unless other arrangements have been agreed upon. PayPal only, that's where ebay is heading anyway.
