Description

Original Postcard 7” with flexi. Both 45 and flexi are in VG+ to EX condition. Printed sleeve mostly EX with small wrinkle on front, visible in photo. Plastic bag in pretty good condition for a 46 year old plastic bag!
It’s from the first and only pressing of the single, one of approximately 1000. 
I bought it in 1980 in Glasgow. I used to play guitar with a pal not a million miles away from West Princes Street. He asked if I had ‘heard of this new local band Orange Juice… listen to this’. It was such a refreshing sound at the time, none of the bands in Glasgow - in fact, in the UK - sounded like this. Their gigs were such fun! The music press labelled them ‘shambolic’ but I never heard this, they were always pretty tight and undeniably destined for greatness. And they achieved that… in their own way.
I decided it was time now to let Falling and Laughing go and let someone else enjoy it.
