Description

SUPERB! VERY RARE GENUINE 1ST UK PRESS VINYL 12" EP ON EMERGENCY BROADCAST SYSTEM RECORDS. (DESPITE THE '45RPM' LABEL TEXT THIS VINYL PLAYS AT 33RPM...AND JUST MY OPINION BUT SURELY THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE TITLED 'AREA 54' BUT SOMEHOW IT HAS BEEN TITLED AREA S4....?!...THATS HAWKWIND FOR YOU!). PURCHASED NEW BY MY FAMILY WHEN RELEASED 31 YEARS AGO IN 1995 IDENTIFIED BY THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS: EBS RECORDS LABELS WITH INCORRECT '45 RPM' TEXT / SLEEVE WITH '(P)&(C) THE EMERGENCY BROADCAST SYSTEM LIMITED 1995....ETC' TEXT ON THE REAR / 1ST UK PRESS MATRIXES / ORIGINAL CAT NUMBER AND BARCODE. ONLY GENUINE 1ST UK PRESSINGS HAVE ALL THESE CHARACTERISTICS...
THE VINYL IS BRIGHT AND GLOSSY AND IN NEAR MINT BARELY PLAYED CONDITION WITH NO SCRATCHES OR SCUFFS WHATSOEVER. THE VINYL LAYS FLAT WITH NO WARPS-I DOUBT YOU COULD FIND A SIMILAR COPY...IF YOU CAN FIND ONE!! THE LABELS ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH NO VISIBLE SPINDLE LINE. THE SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ONLY VERY LIGHT SHELF WEAR. THERE ARE NO EDGE SPLITS TO THE SLEEVE. THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS I RECKON....NOTHING MUCH TO SHOW FOR ITS 31 YEARS! THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS EBT 107 (SLEEVE AND LABELS) WITH 1ST UK PRESS MATRIX NUMBERS EBT 107 A1 AND EBT 107 B1. . LOW (BRAVE)! START PRICE AND NO RESERVE! SEE MY OTHER HAWKWIND VINYLS LISTED.
A RARE CHANCE TO BUY A GENUINE 1ST UK PRESS IN SUPERB CONDITION ! DUE TO THE WAR IN UKRAINE I WILL NOT SELL TO RUSSIA OR BELARUS.
