This is a vinyl copy of Songs For Ships And Irons by Cardiacs. I bought this in 1991, not long after the record was released. I saw the band perform in 1989 at Keele University - they were a great live band! This is a compilation of The Big Ship mini album, and tracks from a couple of 12 inch singles. There is also the studio version of Everything Is Easy. In this early phase of the band, the NME refused to take them seriously, and would not feature them at all - but they are all superb musicians. The sleeve for this is in near perfect condition, with very minimal wear at the corners. The vinyl itself just has a couple of very superficial marks on it, and is in excellent condition. Postage is included in the price.
