Description

The "My Geraniums Are Bulletproof" L.P. by The Deep Freeze Mice. (Their first album from 1979.)

Mole Embalming Records MOLE 1. This copy is one of the first pressing of 250 copies. It has hand-assembled covers with duplicated A4 sheets glued onto a plain white cover. It includes the original 2 A4 inserts. (The surname of the sound engineer was crossed out by hand on every copy after the band realised that it was incorrect - it should have read "Terry" not "Croft").

"The Deep Freeze Mice were an English New Wave band that were active between 1979 and 1989. They were based in Leicester, and consisted of the core members Alan Jenkins (guitars and singing), Sherree Lawrence (organ and other keyboards), and Mick Bunnage (bass guitar). The band had two different drummers over the years: Graham Summers and Pete Gregory. The band released 10 albums during their existence on their own Cordelia Records label. Their music was odd, often consisting of absurd and surreal lyrics delivered in Alan's deadpan voice accompanied by bouncy pop/progressive rock music. Favored lyrical concerns included animal rights, conformity, and science fiction. Alan Jenkins has played guitar with The Thurston Lava Tube since 2001."

The record is near mint. The cover has some discolouration and slight ring marks but is structurally sound.

Note: I try to make the remarks about the condition of the vinyl records in my auctions as accurate as possible, but I don't have time to play them all so they're mostly evaluated visually. If you feel that the description is innacurate I will give a refund on return of the disk in most cases.

The postage will cost £1.80 for the UK, £2.80 for Europe and £4.50 for everywhere else. If you buy multiple items I can work out the actual postage and packing cost for you, but the above prices are often lower than the actual cost anyway.

You can use a credit card via PayPal (use the email address cordelia@stayfree.co.uk), send a cheque (made out to "Cordelia Records" - not jimdpie - in UK currency from UK banks only) or cash (add an extra £2 if it isn't UK cash).
