Description

Subway Sect - Ambition 7" single - Rough Trade - 1978 Second Pressing w/ orange printing - VG+
This was the second record by Vic Godard's Subway Sect, one of the UK's first punk bands (performing at the 100 Club Punk Festival in Sept 1976), issued by Rough Trade in 1978.
This second pressing features a thick paper picture sleeve with orange printing (changed from the yellow used in the first pressing to improve legibulity). Black vinyl, no inner sleeve. Can also be identified through matrix/runout info. Please feel free to verify features of various release versions on Discogs if you have any concerns.
Overall condition is VG+. Vinyl is VG+, moderate scuffing. Sleeve is VG+ with some storage creasing.
Side 1:
Ambition

Side 2: Different Story
Matrix / Runout (A side runout): RT 007-A
Matrix / Runout (B side runout): RT 007-AA

  • These two songs were remixed versions from what would have been the band's first album, which was never released (although some tracks eventually appeared on various Subway Sect compilations).
