STOP! DON'T NOT READ THIS POST...


As all loyal and adoring Crivvies know, I am the most modest and humble of men.  Not for yours truly the brash, arrogant boasting and self-aggrandising pronouncements of a braggart, in conceited attempts to shout my talents from the rooftops.  Truly it can be said that humility is my middle name.  However, on this rare occasion, I feel it behooves me to shyly draw your attention to the above record which I received today, and softly point out, from the seller's photos, how it looked in his possession and its current state now that it belongs to me.

Oh, stuff all that!  Didn't I make a fecking brilliant job of making it look quite a bit better than it was?!  You're darn tootin' I did.  Now tell me how amazing I am!  It won't hurt and you'll feel good about yourselves for being able to recognise a gifted individual when you see one (you know what I mean).  Line up for the comment section - the 'praise-fest' starts now.  (My photo of the front cover looks slightly darker than the seller's, but that's because I dulled the flash to reduce the glare after a few attempts at taking it.)


And yes, you've seen the cover before on this blog, but it was a replica I made from someone else's original around 25 or more years ago.  I obtained a coverless record a few months back and united the two items, but the record had quite a few snaps, crackles and pops.  However, just a few days ago, I saw an original cover with record on ebay for an unbelievably low price (I'm surprised it wasn't snapped up by someone else), and I'm happy to report that the record plays virtually perfectly.
