This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.
Box VG, with lid corners broken at top.
Includes a roughly 12" double-sided insert:
"The Trojan Story triple
album (not to be confused with the sequel double album released in 1976
but since deleted) was originally released in 1972 and after a
successful but brief period was deleted. Following the recent spate of
ska-influenced records released by many of today's bands we felt it was
time to re-issue the set in a limited edition. This time instead of a
sleeve we have packaged them in a box for greater protection in view of
their ever increasing historical value. The track listing is identical
to the original, the music is the same (no re-mixes) and apart from some
minor editing the sleeve notes haven't been altered. When listening to
these records you soon realise that probably all of today's ska bands must have laid their hands on an original copy of the Trojan Story such is the influence of this compilation on today's music."
Ships carefully padded in new corrugated box.
