Description
THE POP GROUP: Y 1979 UK RADAR w/POSTER Nr MINT - EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN SOUND
THE POP GROUPY
UK RADAR (RAD 20) FIRST PRESSING (April 1979) OF THE POP GROUP'S DEBUT LP "Y"
ONCE/TWICE PLAYED AND DELIVERING EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN SOUND FOR THIS OFTEN (I'd say, mostly) POORLY PRESSED RECORD
MARTIX: RAD 20 A-3 / RAD 20 B-3 (the first pressing)
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL MATT SLEEVE PRINTED BY 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE'
COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL HUGE 10 PANE LYRIC POSTER
AND THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE WITH UK PATENT NUMBER AND "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" PRINTED IN BLACK
Side 1:
Thief of Fire (4:34)
Snowgirl (3:20)
Blood Money (2:56)
Savage Sea (3:01)
We Are Time (6:29)
Side 2:
Words Disobey Me (3:25)
Don't Call Me Pain (5:34)
The Boys From Brazil (4:15)
Don't Sell Your Dreams (6:37)
LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, factory-fresh labels with only one/two light spindle traces on one side
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+
Both surfaces shine like-new with just a few harmless hairlines/marks
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
But as-new (I have never known this LP to play flawlessly throughout and as this copy is practically untouched this is just about as good as it gets).
My play-check at loud volume revealed just the occasional light random click - an impossibly minor consideration - but no scratches or sound distortion (which again can be an issue with this pressing) otherwise, exceptionally clean and the finest playing copy of this stunning post-punk masterpiece I have heard
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
A very fine example - clean, sharp and unmarked with practically unworn edges and spine
POSTER: NEAR MINT
Probably been opened just once before my photos
