The Lewd: Self-Released EP 1978/1979
Original issue on Scratched Records (#101)
A: "Kill Yourself"
B: "Pay Or Die" / "Trash Can Baby"
This is an excellent copy of an extremely rare single and it's been carefully stored since its release: the disc was separated from its sleeve, put into a generic white sleeve and then bagged with a backing boards to prevent damage from being thumbed through in the box they were stored in. Care has been taken to avoid even transferring a fingerprint to the picture sleeve or disc. I've included high resolution images of the sleeve and disc labels for closer inspection. I am the original owner of this single.
There is some confusion about when this record was released - the disc itself says "1978" and the picture sleeve says "1979". I am guessing that the disc was pressed in late 1978 and the sleeve was printed in 1979 and the whole package was probably released in early 1979. It was produced by Marty Frazu (of the band the Frazz) and he might know but I don't know if he's still around.
I VERY rarely refer to records as "mint" even if they're unplayed. The sleeve of this looks like it's been handled although with care. There are no folds, rips or even record ring wear but I don't feel that it rises to the condition of Near Mint.
None of my records were ever mishandled. These records have been cared for by me and I've been a record collector since the 1960s. You would have to look long and hard to find copies of the records I'm selling in this condition. The majority of the handling they have received was either at the pressing plant or by the employees at the record shop which originally stocked them.
