Description
Extremely rare Irish pressed Northern Irish punk compilation from 1980 on local Belfast label Shock Rock records. The catalogue number is SLR 007.
Track listing _ see photographs for details of the bands featured and tracks
As you can see from the photographs the LP cover is in Near mint condition with faintest signs of storage and handling wear from its 36 year history. The cover edges are nice and straight. there are no splits or stresses along any of the edges. The sleeve opening is perfect without any feathering or damage whatsoever. All lettering on the LP spine is clear and legible as you can see.
Unlike many sellers of vinyl on eBay as well as visually grading the LP I have listened to both sides from start to finish. This was done on a rega P3 with tonearm rewired by audio origami and with a Goldring 2400 cartridge.
Visually the LP is in excellent condition with a few light hairlines and superficial marks mainly on side 1 otherwise the LP retains a very high shine. The labels have a couple of light spindle marks.
The sound quality is a strong Excellent and is not far off Mint condition.the only noticeable sound issue is a few pops at the very end of track 1 on side 1 and this is in the gap between track 1 and 2.
Overall this is an extremely rare LP which was limited to 1000 copies. The compilation was recorded at outlet studios in Belfast. The recording quality is extremely good but still captures the rawness and authenticity of some of the best of our local Northern Irish punk bands.
I expect this LP to go for a healthy price and It be posted with tracking and insurance and only to the correct address as per PayPal. It will posted in a proper mailer with stiffeners and removed from its sleeve.
