New Wave - The Cure A Single 2x 7" Vinyl 1982

Fantastic release from The Cure, my personal favourite is the live performances on Record 2, loads of phasing/reverb/echo on the guitar. If anything, the percussion audio is a bit "peaky" especially on the cymbals.

Gatefold cover is in very good condition, light vinyl ring wear is visible, a couple of light creases and light handling wear to the top edge but otherwise nice.

New inner plastic sleeves in addition to the original paper sleeves

Both vinyl are in excellent condition, inspected visually and then both records played - virtually no surface noise (only at the lead-in and lead-out) although in my opinion Record 2 has been played more and has a slightly higher level of surface noise on the quiet passages - damn fine listen though.

New outer protective sleeve
