International Peace Benefit Compilation (Radical Records RRR1984)

Cover....Very very good, couple of scuffs, nothing too tragic.

Records......Excellent, pretty good for something 25 years old.

Double album of hardcore punky treats from around the world, including Crass, D.O.A, Subhumans, Conflict, Dead Kennedys, D.R.I, Reagan Youth........and many others ( 55 tracks by 55 bands). I remember reading that this compilation was put together in San Francisco by Maximum R&R fanzine & comes with a couple of paper inserts. Very hard to get hold of nowadays, especially in this condition.
