I wasn't even aware there was a picture sleeve myself!

It's a classic. I appreciate it even more now than I did back in the day.

Yes, it looks good.

Thanks. No unfortunately not Rich. It's a red vinyl bootleg from (according to Discogs) around 2003.

Have a great Sunday everyone.

Disappointing but a very good replacement.

Should be good. Electric Ballroom is a good venue. I've got a ticket for Bristol on 13/09.

I was going to ask you how much but then read your later post. You paid a reasonable price for it especially as it's in Vg condition.

09.08.2025 20:13 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Nice one. I have been tempted to buy it a few times myself.

Yes, it's new to me.

I'm not surprised you're pissed off I would be too. I don't buy vinyl online very often either because I've also received damaged goods but fortunately not as bad as yours.

Considered to be the starting point of Goth.

Exactly. Some of the vinyl (and books) are silly prices now.

05.08.2025 10:55 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Out of curiosity I just had a quick look myself it's a bit pricey but not quite as much I feared.
Some of the older Punk era books are very expensive now.

Yes, it's quite difficult to get hold of and quite expensive to replace now.

05.08.2025 08:20 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

I had this lent it to a mate who was in a band and never got it back😱

TMTCH are a very good band. I was lucky enough to pick up a couple of their later 12 inches in a local charity shop for 50p recently.
I was amazed to find them.

The album is still worth getting even without the poster. I think it's probably the best Anarcho punk album ever recorded.

03.08.2025 11:26 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

It's a great album. For some reason I always found it atmospheric. Did you get the poster with the album?

I didn't know 21 Guns either. They are a UK ska band.The single was released in 81 produced by Neville Staples. I took a chance on it and it's better than I expected.

Morning all,

I've been out and about a bit recently and these are four recent purchases that I picked up.

Have a good day everyone.

Cool. I can't recall seeing this before.The only Japanese Clash pressing that I'm very familiar with is Pearl Harbour '79. Always liked the sleeve to that.

The Japanese copy of Eton Rifles is potentially quite collectable. I can't find one with See Saw in the bottom right of the sleeve on Discogs. Maybe the photo though. I'm not very good at figuring that out πŸ˜‚

Yes, earlier today.

I really must learn to proofread what I type πŸ˜‚.
I bought the pink sleeved one back in the day. Never knew the original was withdrawn.

20.07.2025 11:58 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Either I Don't Wanna or Borstal Breakout for me.
Yes, it's the repress of Strength of your Crime. The original was in black sleeve I believe.

Enjoy what's left of the weekend.

If you are visiting the area I can recommend Rocket Records in Bournemouth.
