Description

Fifteen Melody Maker/Sounds/NME 1980’s vinyl EPs. All play at 33 1/3rd  rpm. These aren’t charity shop rummage jobs - I collected them back in the day. I never played most of them, so they’re effectively new although some are a bit dusty from storage. BUYERS PLEASE NOTE - I don’t have a record player so my assessment of condition is based on visual inspection alone. I’d rate them all as at least very good - excellent. Some interesting rarities/alternative versions amongst them by well-know bands, and some long-forgotten also-rans. Also please note that the photo only shows thirteen of the records. I found another two - the Christmas Cracker and Melody Maker Vinyl Conflict 1 - after I’d taken the the photo and, frankly, I couldn’t be arsed to take another one. Most of them have bog-standard paper sleeves. Some still have bits of sellotape from being attached to the paper.
