Description
THIS AUCTION IS FOR A SUPER RARE AND HIGHLY COLLECTABLE COPY OF
THE AFFLICTED
ALL RIGHT BOY / WHO CAN TELL
BONK RECORDS AFF-2, 1980
WITH ULTRA RARE HAND MADE & COLOURED DOUBLE-SIDED CUT OUT COVER AND ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE HAND DRAWN LABEL.
PLEASE NOTE: THE DISCOGS ENTRIES FOR THE AFFLICTED SINGLES ARE INCORRECT THOUGH THAT MAY SIMPLY BE DUE TO THIS BEING AN ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE COPY GIVEN TO ME BY THE SINGER OF A BAND I WAS IN IN 1982/83 WHO WAS A BIG FAN AND FRIEND OF THE BAND (AND CRANE). THIS IS A HAND MADE SLEEVE WITH BOTH PANELS OF THE A4 COVER IMAGES HAND CUT TO 7" COVER SIZE COVER RATHER THAN BEING STAPLED AND FOLDED. STEVE HALL'S HAIR HAS BEEN HAND-COLURED BLONDE WITH A FELT-TIP PEN AND THE SONG TITLES HAND WRITTEN, AMUSINGLY AS 'SID' 1 RATHER THAN 'SIDE' 1 AND 2. ONE SIDE OF THIS SINGLE HAS A BEAUTIFUL HAND DRAWN DESIGN WHICH MY ERTWHILE BAND-MATE TOLD ME WAS DRAWN BY CRANE HIMSELF. OBVIOUSLY I HAVE NO WAY OF AUTHENTICATING THIS HOWEVER LOOKING NOW AT THE PAGES FROM THE 'NICKY CRANE FAN CLUB' SELF-PENNED COMIC REPRODUCED IN THE WHlTE NATl0NALlST SKlNHEAD M0VEMENT BOOK THE LETTERS SEEM TO BE FORMED IN THE SAME DISTINCT MANNER AND THE ARTISTIC STYLE VERY SIMILAR BUT WHO KNOWS? INCIDENTALLY, THE GUY WHO GAVE ME THE RECORD ALSO TOLD ME THE CONSPICUOUS GAP TO THE RIGHT OF STEVE HALL'S PHOTO-BOOTH MUG SHOT ON THE SLEEVE WAS MEANT TO HAVE BEEN A PIC OF CRANE BUT IT WAS REMOVED AS HE HAD BEEN ARRESTED FOR AN ATTACK JUST BEFORE THE SINGLE'S RELEASE SO HALL, UNDERSTANDABLY, THOUGHT HIS INCLUSION WOULD HAVE BEEN THE DEATH OF THE BAND WHO WERE STARTING TO DO WELL ON THE LONDON PUNK PUB GIG CIRCUIT.
(AND MAY I ADD I'M NOT SOME WEIRDO CRANE BOOT-LICKING PLASTER-CASTER SO ODDBALLS: DON'T BOTHER WRITING TO ASK IF I HAVE ANYTHING ELSE RELATED. I DON'T. AND I NEVER 'FLEW WITH THE PH0ENIX' EITHER. I'M JUST FLOGGING A LOAD OF OLD RECORDS I GOT AS A KID TO RAISE MONEY FOR MY DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY. LOADS MORE LATE '70s AND EARLY '80s PUNK SINGLES TO BE LISTED SOON)
Vinyl has some scuffing and light scratches but plays fine. I would grade it as VG. Cover (two individual hand-cut sheets) are in very good condition apart from signs of age to paper and a tiny mark on front top right corner where my bandmate had written his name in biro pen which either wore through or he scrubbed it out. Please see photos.
I AM ALSO SELLING THE FIRST AFFLICTED SINGLE WITH THE ULTRA RARE NICKY CRANE SLEEVE TOGETHER WITH THEIR THIRD AND FINAL 7". PLEASE SEE MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR FULL DETAILS.
