Very rare and OOP, original 1982 Missing Link Records (Link 7), Australian import, The Birthday Party's amazing debut album. It was actually first released in 1980 while they were still called The Boys Next Door, then re-released a bit later with this cover and under the new name, Birthday Party. Has The Friend Catcher, Hair Shirt, Happy Birthday, Guilt Parade, and of course the amazing Mr Clarinet.
From my private collection, well taken care of, rarely ever played, vinyl in near mint condition, plays like new; excellent sound. The cover unfortunately has a small bit of defacement: a silly mustache and glasses drawn onto Phil Calvert's face, very small and barely noticeable at first (see picture #3). Its funny, but I bought it used this way and I thought it was actually a real part of the cover for years. Other than that strange little flaw, the cover in VG+ condition.
Packed and shipped with care. Shipping to Canada is $12.50, shipping to most of the rest of the world is $16.50. You can combine multiple records I am selling for a significant shipping discount. Thanks.
