Description
The experience of buying records on Ebay is ruined if, when they arrive, you discover that they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging. They are also from a non-smoking and pet-free home.
I accept returns and offer a full refund if you are not happy with your purchase.
Morrissey - 'Suedehead' Double Vinyl LP - 1997
Catalogue no. EMC 3771 - EMI Records
This album is very difficult to find in this double vinyl LP format, and this one is offered for sale in extremely collectable condition. What makes this copy even more interesting is the inclusion of a promotional 2-sided glossy paper flyer issued for the French market which includes early proposed artwork and release details in French text. This flyer illustrates the 'evolution' of the plans for this album, which changed as the release date came closer. Subtle changes such as a difference in the track order, whereby tracks 2 and 3 are switched in position, and the slightly earlier proposed release date are evident. In addition the artwork was yet to be finalised, and an adaptation of the 'Vauxhall And I' artwork was used overlayed with the new album title in gold. Undoubtedly the most interesting difference, however, is the famously-abandoned plans for a second 'bonus' CD containing unreleased material. Even the tracklisting on this bonus CD was seen to change before it was finally scrapped altogether. Here the proposed bonus CD lists 'Trash', 'That's Entertainment', 'Oh Phoney' and 'Striptease With A Difference' as the additional tracks, but other promotional booklets have been seen elsewhere advertising different tracks on this extra CD. A very interesting piece of Morrissey solo-career history and a very rare double vinyl LP are offered here in superb condition (see below).The vinyl and labels for each of the two records are in near mint condition, having almost certainly never been played and having no visible marks on the vinyl or labels in either case. The terrific glossy gatefold sleeve is in strong excellent condition, having only some mild wear to the corners and in one or two small places on the spine. There is the small beginning of a split where the surface has just broken in the middle of the upper edge but a split has not fully formed and it does not spoil the appearance. There are no creases or other signs of wear and there is no writing and no sticker marks anywhere. The promotional flyer is in near mint condition with no creases or other significant signs of handling at all. Please see the accompanying photos for more detail; note that the 'Ebay ID' lettering is just on the pictures and not on the item itself.

I always take great care to package items well.See my other auctions for related rare items here.
