Description
"U2 THREE"
SEVEN INCH SINGLE/E.P.
This item is a rare copy of the first ever release by U2, the "U2 Three" seven inch single/EP from 1979, in its original card sleeve. This record was originally only released in Ireland on CBS records, before the band subsequently signed to Island records globally.
Three songs were in contention to be the a-side for the single so Irish DJ Dave Fanning was asked to poll listeners on his radio show to vote which song should be the a-side. The three songs were Out of Control, Boy/Girl and Stories For Boys. Fanning's listeners chose Out Of Control, a song that Bono wrote on his 18th birthday. Both Out Of Control and Stories For Boys appeared on the Boy album. Boy/Girl was only released as a single.
Please note: there is yellowing sellotape down the right hand side of the front cover, and there is a mark where the original price sticker was. There are also highly visible scratches on the A side of the record (please see the second picture attached to this listing).
Please note: we use a secure postal service to deliver all items, with a signature required upon receipt.
