THE CURE - FRIDAY I'M IN LOVE
7" VINYL LIMITED TO 100 WITH DIFFERENT COVER ART FOR EACH ONE, SO THIS IS A UNIQUE ITEM!!!!!
EXCLUSIVE TO RECORD STORE DAY 2012 AS PART OF THE SECRET 7" PROJECT
THE RECORD HAS A UNIQUE EXCLUSIVE DESIGN BY CHET SLATER, WINNER OF THE SURREAL APPEAL CHALLENGE FOR HUGO BOSS. ONE OF HIS DESIGNS WILL ALSO FEATURE ON THE COVER OF THE SOON TO BE RELEASED 'SOUND OF THE CITIES' ALBUM.
SECRET 7" WAS A PROJECT WHICH AIMED TO REKINDLE SOME OF THE EXCITEMENT FOR SLEEVE ART IN THE DIGITAL ERA BY EXPLORING HOW A TRACK WOULD BE INTERPRETED BY AN ARRAY OF BRILLIANT ARTISTS. ALL THE COVERS WERE EXHIBITED IN THE IDEA GENERATION GALLERY IN SHOREDITCH, LONDON, UK.
SEVEN DIFFERENT BANDS PARTICIPATED (THE CURE, FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE, CSS, NOAH AND THE WHALE, BEN HOWARD, BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB AND DJ SHADOW), EACH ONE WITH A TRACK AND 700 DESIGNERS CREATED THE ARTWORK FOR 100 SLEEVES FOR EACH ARTIST. THIS WAY, THE CURE HAD 100 COPIES OF THIS EXCLUSIVE SINGLE, EACH ONE WITH A ONE OF A KIND COVER. (this was item 297 of 700)
ON RECORD STORE DAY 2012 THEY OPENED THE GALLERY FOR PEOPLE TO BUY THE RECORDS BY ITS COVER WITHOUT KNOWING THE RECORD / ARTIST THEY WOULD GET. THAT'S WHY IT WAS CALLED SECRET 7" AS YOU COULD ONLY TRY TO GUESS BY THE DESIGN WHAT BAND WOULD YOU GET ONLY TO FIND OUT ONCE YOU BOUGHT IT.
PROBABLY THIS MAKES THIS ITEM THE MOST EXCLUSIVE THE CURE SINGLE EVER AS I CANNOT THINK OF A MORE LIMITED EDITION ITEM THEY'VE EVER RELEASED. SO IT'S A MUST HAVE FOR ANY OBSESSIVE THE CURE COLLECTOR.
ANY QUESTIONS, JUST ASK
I WILL ONLY POST THIS RECORD BY SPECIAL DELIVERY (NEXT DAY DELIVERY BY 13.00 IN THE UK, AND INTERNATIONAL THEY AIM TO DELIVER WITHIN 4 DAYS)
GOOD LUCK!!!!
