Description

7" single by No Pun Intended, an Edina, MN rock band from the late 1980's.  No date listed, but one member is wearing a Naked Raygun 'Jettison' t-shirt, which, coupled with information gleaned from a certain band member's wikipedia entry, leads me to believe this record was relased circa 1989. 

The band is notable for the fact that the guitar player and songwriter are none other than the celebrated Craig Finn of Hold Steady and Lifter Puller reknown.  The songs Condemned (co-written with Greg Konzeny) and Something Must Be Wrong, which may be the earliest recorded and released examples of Finn's songcraft, appear on this record.  The music is fairly tame proto-emo rock, but a gonzo guitar solo, some snazzy drumming and some inventive lyrics will be of interest to music historians and Finnophiles alike.

This ebay listing is currently one of only two mentions of this extrodinarily rare record on the entire internet.

Record is in very good condition, with only one small scratch that does not affect it's playability or sound.

Any other questions, feel free to ask.
