This is the extremely rare and only 7" release by The Blame. This single was released in 1980 on the private label, ASP. The song "Elevator Shoes" (Side A) has been referred to as "white boy reggae," but personally, I can listen past the stigma and hear the killer vocals and guitar riffs that are reminiscent of McCartney & Wings (...not a very punk allusion? Get over it.). But as everyone raves, "Little Girls in Hollywood" (Side B) is absolutely killer, raw power pop and punk in the vein of The Blessed from NYC. The record is in great shape. The sleeve has aged to a pleasant beige, but otherwise it's is in really awesome shape. I enjoyed this one for a good while, and I hate to let it go, but life goes on.
I am moving and I have decided to sell some records. I am not a record dealer, just a casual collector. I have loosely based my grading system off of the Goldmine Magazine Record Grading Standard. All of the records that I am selling have been well-cared for and housed in a poly sleeve. All of the records come from a smoke-free home. As stated, I am not a dealer, so my grading scale is based on my best judgement. I will be posting some of my favorite records, so may my loss be your gain.
I WILL ONLY SHIP WITHIN THE CONTINENTAL 48 UNITED STATES.
My rates are as follows:
U.S.: One 7”: $4.90 One 12”/LP: $5.60 I will provide combined shipping and adjusted shipping rates when appropriate.
I highly suggest insurance for records that sell over $50.00.
Refunds: I am not responsible for any items after I have delivered them to the post office. You can see in the picture that the item is not broken, and all known flaws are specified in the listing. Obviously, if an item is unopened and still in sealed shrink-wrap, I cannot fully verify the condition of the item. I do not accept returns, nor do I issue refunds unless the item has been grossly misrepresented.
