ANGELIC UPSTARTS - BOMBED OUT - GERMAN IMPORT REISSUE ALBUM.
Fantastic album from original Punk Legends the Angelic Upstarts, Inspired initially by The Clash, regular face around town Mensi just like Strummer felt he also had plenty to say, and formed the upstarts in South Shields, Tyneside in 1977.
By the following year they had self-released their debut single, "The Murder of Liddle Towers/Police Oppression and from then on they were simply unstoppable, Mensi was a man of the people and used his voice and influence to enlighten everyone who cared to listen, politics were high on the upstarts agenda and were often featured within Mensi's typically working class lyrics.
The band were never far from controversy or outrage but still managed to produce some of the greatest ever punk records, I was lucky enough to witness the great man himself looming large over many upstarts gigs I attended and Mensi always delivered a powerful performance on stage, I for one will miss his mighty presence - Mensi R.I.P.
This I acquired from a closed independent record shop who kindly sold me their small amount of left over punk related stock.
Sleeve is Mint with no wear it's in excellent condition, the vinyl is new and unplayed and also fantastic (see photos).
Serious collector's who buy from me on a regular basis will know the importance of having this upstarts album in their punk collection.
grab it while it's here, this has now been deleted.
Low start and no reserve.
