Description
OK, OK, after loads of people asking about it, I'm now selling off my last (for now) spare copy of this record. This is one of my absolute all-time favorite EPs, and now you have a chance to obtain a copy. The band was called Shadows As Tall As Trees from the SF Bay Area, and they pressed this 12" EP in very limited quantities on white vinyl on their own Still Life label in 1987. Not only is the artwork and presentation great, the music matches it perfectly. The songs are synth-based darkwave. All 4 tracks are absolutely perfect gloomy rainy-day songs with somber, deep vocals and great instrumentation. If you like the Epithet Records output, early 4AD or Factory Records, or bands like Die Unbekannten or Danse Society or Tears for Fears, this will fit in nicely with your collection. You don't see this very often, so be sure to grab it. You won't be disappointed.
You can read all about (and listen to) the album here:

The cover is NM with just a little bit of edge wear; it's hard to tell with white vinyl, but it looks NM (and plays perfectly). You won't find a better copy (or probably any copy at all, for that matter!)
The songs are: The Problem, Now Don't Cry, Care, The Problem (Depression Mix).
If you want to hear any clips from this record or anything else I'm offering, please contact me via eBay!
I have LOTS and LOTS more records to come! Buy now, buy next week, and the week after that, and after that, and then wait a week, and then buy more!!!
I can ship multiple items at once, of course (for just a little bit more per each additional item). And I can wait to ship items if there are more items you're interested in bidding on! If you win multiple items, please wait for me to send the invoice (so you don't pay too much for shipping).
All records are shipped in secure carboard packages, are well-padded, and ship with the records outside of the sleeves and stored in a plastic outer sleeve to ensure safe delivery in the same condition in which they leave my house.
