Description

 

The word rare can be misused, but not on this occasion.  This is the bloody RARE Australian only original first pressing of the Pixies 5th studio album on blue vinyl.  There were literally only 500 of this made, and all were sold out (extremely quickly) in one Sydney shop and one in Melbourne, I believe.  Here’s a limited chance to get a one owner copy which is in immaculate condition from an Oz Pixies junky who is willing to accept what another Pixies junky or collector is prepared to pay.

 

(record owned since new & played once on a quality direct drive turntable & stylist to say goodbye)

 

Cover & vinyl Near Mint (only because I played it) - always kept in a plastic sleeve.

I have an extensive personal collection of indie/alternative records which I will sell over the coming months/year.  Most purchased new since the 70’s so keep watching I may have something of interest.

I grade conservatively / impartially and use the UK Record Collector grades

(M) Mint: The record itself is in new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition. (EX) Excellent: The record shows slight signs of having been played but there is no lessening in sound quality and the cover and packaging are as new. (VG) Very Good: The record has obviously been played quite a few times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality. A slight amount of wear and tear on the cover and extra items is acceptable. (G) Good: The record still produces a reasonable, playable sound but has obviously been played a lot. Although showing wear and tear, neither the record or cover/extra items display major defects. (F) Fair: Sound quality has deteriorated markedly. The cover/extra items display folding, scuffing, marks etc.
