This is one of my treasured vinyls from when I grew up in New Zealand, in fact on of my favourites!
It's now time to find a new home for these records.
I am hoping this vinyl will find it's way to someone who also appreciates great New Zealand indie music.
This vinyl was last played about 30 years ago (until today)
My background is technical, particularly relating to the professional music/audio industry and because of this I give a LOT of detail about what I am offering.
Prior to advertising this vinyl, it has had a standard wet wash & vacuum and dry.
The vinyl is first visually inspected and then played ENTIRELY.

New plastic inner sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source, I can barely any scratches on Side A, however Side B has a couple of quite long light scratches which I thought may be a problem ...
I then played both sides entirely, and both sides play absolutely excellento....yeah....enjoy! These guys are REALLY DIFFERENT
