Love
LP (Item 607643) Sire, 1985 — Condition: Sealed
The record that really pushed The Cult into the big time – and a set that helped merge mainstream UK styles with some of the darker currents of the underground – all at a level that forever paved the way for goth generations to come! And yes, the group maybe had their excesses in later years – but in this early moment, there are elements that aren't too far from the fuzzier side of the UK indie scene in hipper currents, even Creation Records – freer from cliche than later years, and nicely free of beats as well – on titles that include the classic "She Sells Sanctuary", plus "Rain", "Revolution", "Nirvana", "Big Neon Glitter", "Brother Wolf Sister Moon", "Love", and "Hollow Man". © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
Sealed
This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".
Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
