Description
Siouxsie & The Banshees Live recording from Tuil 1981, Essen and Coventry 1981, Cologne and Paris 1980
Album title "Static Display".
I am selling off some of my beloved records to pay bills. This album was purchased some time between 1986 and 1988. I believe.
I don't know that I ever played this record even to test the quality because I generally had tapes of the shows I bought the albums to.I bought the album because I was drawn to the cover. The back cover photo of Siouxsie without her stage make up or attire I found captivating. My normal pattern was to buy an album and record it the first time I played it and then never play it again. My source at the time of purchase knew what I would buy and always went out of his way to find those records I didn't have. He picked this one up from his supplier thinking I would want because it had at the time older material of high quality while most of the albums at that time were from the "Tinderbox" tour and I already had them. He knew I saved all month for the monthly record show and the last thing he wanted was for me to leave his table empty handed. This album has many of my favorite songs still today plus my band used to cover "Paradise Place".
I tried to find out how many were pressed and all I came up with was "very low production" and "Extremely Rare". One site said it was made in 1981 and I don't believe that, another said '82 and another said 1984 which either seems more logical. Discogs says there were five pressings in Germany on Rentner Records. The cover photo does not match and on another page I found my cover and the same inner labels but no identification other than the song list and that it was pressed in Germany, but there is no company name on this one. It also shows and "official re-release" in 2009 and I know it isn't from there.
I was a devoted fan and collector so I bought anything and everything I could get and then stored it safely away. I just pulled it out of the paper sleeve and it looks as if it has never been played.
Please ask any questions before bidding. I do not allow returns on records, photographs, Cds, DVDs or anything that can be copied and then returned. I do stand behind everything I sell. I will ship this record worldwide. If bought domestically the shipping is free. Outside of the continental U.S. buyer will pay shipping.
Very Important! If you are the winning bidder wait for me to send an invoice before paying.
The quantity of this record is listed at 5oo but supposedly they are hand numbered and mine is not.
I have many more records I plan on selling that include live albums by Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Cure, Squeeze, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Blondie, The Kinks, The Who, Go-go's,Beatles and more. So if you are a collector as I was I suggest you save me as a seller or you may miss out. Obviously you should check out my other listings today.
If you do not live in the Continental United States then contact me before bidding for a shipping quote
The best way to handle non-domestic sales is to wait until I send you an invoice. This may save you a lot of money in postal fees. I do not always use Ebay's mailing service because sometimes it is far cheaper to mail it myself. In the case of a recent auction I placed a lot of insurance on the record. If it is damaged in transit it can not be replaced. I ship in a cardboard box specifically designed for mailing individual vinyl records. Domestically I ship 'media mail'. This is not available for non-domestic mail.
After this album sells I will put up another SATB live record.
