RAMONES Too Tough To Die LP Sire 1984 w/ Inner Sleeve PUNK ROCK

$

25

From July 1985 or so through late 1988 I collected a ton of underground punk and industrial records. Most of the bands I liked you couldn't get CDs of anyway, so with an eye towards archiving (both of my parents worked as preservationists & curators at museums in upstate NY) what I did instead was to listen to each new record I bought ONCE on a direct-drive turntable as I recorded it to a cassette, then file it in a heavy polyvinyl sleeve in a crate in my closet.

All of these records have therefore been in storage for 30+ years, and while I haven't examined any of them them closely under special vinyl inspection lamps and sure haven't played any of them again twice - I haven't even owned a turntable since 1993! -  can tell you that they are all in just about pristine condition, not counting some age-yellowing to the inner paper sleeves and bends to the corners of the stiff outer sleeves on a few of them which may or may not be visible in the pictures I took for this listing.

All records graded on an amateur best-endeavor basis, I've never worked in a record store and pretty much lost the fever for collecting as soon as I got a college girlfriend so please do examine all photographs carefully and consider any questions you may have before you buy, as there are no returns.

NOTE: bought this one used, punch out in the upper right corner, see pics
