YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING....

THE SMITHS MEAT IS MURDER

VERY OBSCURE 9 TRACK ITALIAN PRESSING, RELEASED ON ROUGH TRADE, CATALOGUE NUMBER ROULP 81

THIS IS NOT THE REGULAR 1985 ITALIAN PRESSING MANUFACTURED BY CGD WHICH HAS THE CATALOGUE NUMBER ROUGH 81 AND NEITHER IS IT ONE OF THE SOMEWHAT BORING RECENT RHINO OR WEA REISSUES

IT HAS BEEN RUMOURED THAT THIS WAS MANUFACTURED DURING A MUCH EARLIER REISSUE PROGRAMME OF SMITHS ALBUMS, ALTHOUGH I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF IT WAS ACTUALLY PRODUCED WITH SOME KIND OF PROMOTIONAL PURPOSE IN MIND, NOTLEAST BECAUSE OF THE VERY LIMITED NUMBERS WHICH SEEM TO EXIST (IT HARDLY EVER APPEARS FOR SALE) AND FOR EXAMPLE, THE LACK OF A BARCODE TO ITS SLEEVE

WHILST THIS IS AN OFFICIAL ITALIAN PRESSING WITH AN EXPECTED S.I.A.E. COPYRIGHT STAMP TO THE LABEL, THERE APPEARS TO BE NO REFERENCE TO VIRGIN DISCHI, THE LABEL WHICH THE BAND WERE SIGNED TO IN THAT COUNTRY 

THE VINYL, LABELS AND ALL SLEEVE PACKAGING SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN MODELLED ON THE UK VERSION WITH SOME SUBTLE TERRITORIAL (AND OTHER NECESSARY) AMENDMENTS - INCLUDING THE ALL IMPORTANT UNIQUE CATALOGUE NUMBER DISTINCTION 

TRACKS:

      • THE HEADMASTER RITUAL
      • RUSHOLME RUFFIANS
      • I WANT THE ONE I CAN'T HAVE
      • WHAT SHE SAID
      • THAT JOKE ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE
      • NOWHERE FAST
      • WELL I WONDER
      • BARBARISM BEGINS AT HOME
      • MEAT IS MURDER

IN MINT CONDITION - STILL SEALED (WITH VERY LIGHT RIPPLING TO SLEEVE FROM THE TIGHT SHRINKWRAP)

COMPLETE WITH ICONIC PICTURE SLEEVE (please see photos) 

A VERY SCARCE SMITHS AND MORRISSEY RELATED COLLECTABLE!
