 original UK press from 1984



Depressing to think that the finest 12" single ever released in the history of recorded music happened so long ago, but that appears to be the case. We have the title track and the b-sides are "How Soon Is Now?" and "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want" and so obviously all three songs are great and to have them on one single is simply amazing.


Outer sleeve in good shape as seen in the pictures, I would characterize it as “light wear”. As far as I know it’s the original white paper inner that’s included. Record itself was played a few times over the years, it’s not beat up.

Listened to the whole thing, and side A sounds fine no pops clicks, crackling etc. sounds perfect. B1 has two separate instances of audible pops. Each instance is like 1 second, it’s not a chronic issue. B2 has one such instance of an audible pop. Beyond those flaws, it sounds great. Really had intended to keep this record, because as I said, it’s the finest 12” single ever. But times are tough and so it’s for sale.



I have lots of good feedback which you can look at, much of it is Morrissey vinyl
