THE SMITHS...UNRELEASED DEMOS & INSTRUMENTALS 2 X 12" LP BLUE VINYL ON BASEMENT TAPES & RECORDS LABEL CAT. NO. SBTR 1707 FROM 2010.

SUPERB TWO VINYL SET OF UNRELEASED OFFERINGS OF VARIOUS DEMOS AND SOME INSTRUMENTALS. THERE SEEMS TO BE A FEW DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THIS - 2 X TRANSLUCENT BLUE, 2 X MARBLE BLUE, 1 X GREEN WITH 1 X WHITE, BUT I CAN'T FIND THIS ONE LISTED. IT IS 1 X TRANSLUCENT BLUE AND 1 X OPAQUE BLUE, AS I BOUGHT IT. FANTASTIC PACKAGE IN A GREAT SLEEVE. THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB. I FIRST SAW THIS REVIEWED IN RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE AND IT WAS GIVEN A SUPERB REVIEW. IT IS REALLY IS A GREAT ADDITION FOR ANY SMITHS FAN.

THE VINYLS ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. BOUGHT NEW AND ONLY PLAYED ONCE AND JUST PRIOR TO LISTING. PLAYING IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT. I DID NOTICE THE ODD VERY FAINT LIGHT TICK ON THE ODD OCCASION, BUT THIS DOESN'T DETRACT FROM THE QUALITY. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN AND FREE OF MARKS.

THE SLEEVE IS IN MINT OR NEAR MINT CONDITION. IT IS BASICALLY AS NEW. STILL IN THE SHRINK WRAP FOR ADDED PROTECTION. THERE IS A BARCODE STICKER ON THE REAR.
