THE SMITHS, There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (4:02 on both sides), Sire Records / Rough Trade 12-inch promotional single, PRO-A-2571, 1986.   Includes custom promotional jacket with an image of Morrissey on the front and a plain white back cover.


SUPER RARE, 12-INCH, PROMOTIONAL SINGLE WITH A COUPLE OF PROBLEMS. 




Vinyl is in VERY GOOD PLUS condition.   There are TWO cosmetic, yet significant, problems with the vinyl.


1)   There are numerous swirl-like blemishes that mar the visual appeal of the vinyl surface.   They are not deep, and do not affect the sound, but they aren't pretty.   Swirls on BOTH SIDES of the record AND in the dead wax which is really broad since this is a 12-inch single.    See photo.


2)  There is a tiny warp (maybe a bit more that 1 millimeter) on the edge of the disk.   This warp does NOT affect playback -- but it's there. 


No spindle tracks.  No writing on labels.     


FABULOUS  SOUND.   PLAY TESTED ALL THE WAY THROUGH ON BOTH SIDES.


The jacket is in EXCELLENT condition -- close to NEAR MINT.   There is ONE TINY crack in the middle of the spine.  See photo.    Super Jacket.   No writing.   No blemishes.   Super clean on both sides.


There is a light brown spot on the photos that is caused by dust on my camera sensor - it's not on the surface of the jacket. 


As you know THIS IS A SUPER RARE record with a couple of unfortunate problems.   It still remains a SOLID FIND.    IT DESERVES A HOME IN A PERMANENT COLLECTION.
