Description

Every Tuesday between 7:00 pm and 8:00 pm (European Time) I will offer old Punk and Powerpop records at www.eBay.de

Hyper-melodic punk classic from Northern Ireland. You are bidding on the original first edition of the first pressing. That means only one side of the fold-out sleeve is printed, the other side is still blank. As you know, later pressings were printed on both sides of the folder sleeve. The same sold on eBay, in April, for £62 (UK). Only the early original first pressing like this one was born with push-out centre labels. Here you get two extremely melodic punk classics, played in the finest tradition. Released on Belfast’s finest punk & powerpop label ‘Good Vibrations’. It’s also the first label release (catalogue number GOT ONE). Issued in several different colored ‘Karloff Mummy’ sleeves, way back in 1978. ‘Big Time’ on the A-side is crammed-full with sparkling melodies, topped with fantastic guitar riffs and superb vocals. The B-sider ‘Number One’ is, also, an extremely catchy melody punker. Your record collection is definitely not complete if you don’t have this super-classic. On the top, this dark yellow sleeve version rarely shows up for sale.
