SLOW - Against the Glass EP ORIGINAL 1985 PRESSING NEAR MINT!
Original 1985 Zulu Records 45 RPM Pressing (ZULUEP 4)! I bought this groundbreaking EP used in mint condition in 1987 or 1988 from a punk record store in Victoria, BC - not far away from SLOW's Vancouver location. Only played it a few times as I taped all my vinyl to save wear on my record collection.
Formed in Vancouver in the mid 1980s this is the one and only original 12" release by one of the most influential punk rock bands in Canadian history and a forerunner of the nearby Seattle grunge scene. SLOW's impact on Canada's music history cannot be underestimated - a classic and sought after original pressing. Don't mistake this for the later 33rpm comps with the same front cover.
Condition NEAR MINT (-M) cover, NEAR MINT vinyl with original sleeve. No insert was originally released with this.
Packed securely in a strong record mailer for safe shipping.
Stored for the last 35 years in a plastic sleeve away from light in a non-smoking home.
I've been selling occasionally on eBay under the same account since 2001 - so almost a quarter century of experience.
