PLEASE BE AWARE YOU ARE PURCHASING A VINYL RECORD, NOT A CD!New Order's third album, released in May 1985. The only sleeve with the band actually on the cover, designed by Peter Saville. The sleeve itself was covered by an onion skin wrapper.
Peaked at #7 in the UK album charts. Ranked #50 in NME's list of the "Greatest Albums Of All Time" and #10 among The NME's "50 Greatest Albums Of The '80s".
You are purchasing an original, true Factory record: Fact 100, 1st UK issue of this album. It is sheathed in the onion skin wrapper and includes the original band photo inner sleeve. Vinyl has very slight scratches visible only in bright light that do not effect play. The labels are somewhat flawed, having three slight wrinkles radiating approx. 1 inch from the hole, as well as a small tear—my guess is this is a result of forcing the record down on a slightly oversize spindle. Onion skin wrapper has a two inch tear on upper left corner and a 1/4" tear toward upper right corner. On the back, the letter "L" is written (or printed) in silver over red script. I do not know if this is an addition by a previous owner, or part of the original packaging. The neatness and overlaying of colors suggests original to the packaging to me, but I can't say for certain not finding this mark referenced anywhere.

This is the true, original, first Factory Records UK release, not the U.S. Qwest release. Very hard to find in the U.S. Don't miss it!
