Description

On offer is this scarce 1979 Australian LP on the Rudesound label (RUD-001), complete with lyric insert and in stunning condition.

Recorded on a Teac 4 track in Belgrave, Victoria ans pressed in very small quantities by Astor records in Clayton, Victoria.

Don't miss out on this hard-to-find artefact of the late 70s Australian lo-fi, post punk/garage scene.

Ron Rude was one of the first Australian indie musicians to self record and release their own material, which he did with the release of his first album 'The Borders of Disgrace' in 1979 and is considered to be a pioneer of DIY recording. Rude was also part of the post punk "little band scene" that flourished in Melbourne in the late 1970s - 1980s, and is probably best known (to the general public) for staging a hunger strike in the window of local record shop Missing Link and the demand that local radio station 3XY play his records, threatening to drown himself in a bucket of water if they did not.

Happy to combine postage on multiple purchases to save you some bucks.

All LP records have been kept in plastic covers since I've owned them and will be shipped with them on, in thick cardboard. Grading is done under a close fluro lamp and played to test for noise.

Grading system as follows;
M New (still sealed)
M- Very minimal marking if any.
EX Excellent condition, little wear.
VG+ Minor marking, quite acceptable.
VG Marking and signs of wear, maybe cover ring wear ?but still acceptable.
VG- Very marked and getting quite beat up at this stage.
G Very badly marked, lots of scratches and maybe a slight warp. Mainly label value only or a filler but still plays with a lot of noise. Will do until a better copy comes along.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WELCOME 

Happy Bidding!
