For auction is an extremely rare The Wake bundle issued by Captured Tracks for Record Store Day 2011. Supposedly only 100 of these bundles were released. The bundles consists of three 7'' records, along with a button in a handmade color screen envelope. The records are brand new and have not been played.
The three 7''s are as follows: On Our Honeymoon (CT103) (On Our Honeymoon/Give Up); Crush The Flowers (CT104) (Crush The Flowers/Carbrain); and Gruesome Flowers (A Tribute to The Wake) (CT105) (Beach Fossils "Plastics Flowers"/Wild Nothing "Gruesome Castle).
Here's what the Captured Tracks says about the sold out bundle:
"In celebration of record store day, we've released two classic, hard to find singles by highly influential Scottish post-punk band, The Wake. These two releases book-end the 80's for the band, as their privately released "On Our Honeymoon" 7" on Scan in 1982 was their first (and only) pre-Factory record, while "Crush the Flowers" is their final release in the 80's (1989) and their first post-Factory record for the illustrious Sarah label.

In conjunction with those two releases, we offer this tribute 7" featuring faithful and well-crafted Wake-approved covers of two classic songs by two C/T artists, Beach Fossils and Wild Nothing, available direct from this site or participating stores. The bundle of all three 7" records will come with repro buttons of The Wake."
