Description

Probably my favourite wire lp - the cd version still gets played regularly. Purported to be wires favourite of the 3 harvest lps too.
Please study description carefully. You are not getting a brand new record but something 40+ years old which will show wear to sleeve and inner. Record visually appears vg but surface marks and finger marks are present. If in any doubt ask for more photos or pass on by as returns are a pain.
First pressing - lilac inner
