Lewis - "Don't Let the Record Label Take You Out To Lunch" 4-song
single! Recently discovered! 200 copies of a 4-song Jeffrey Lewis 7-inch vinyl promo, pressed by Rough Trade America for US radio promotion back in 2003 and never distributed! Only 200 were made and it will never be re-pressed - the recordings are all from the album "It's the Ones Who've Cracked That the Light Shines Through": Don't Let the Record Label Take You Out to Lunch, Alphabet, No LSD Tonight, and Shoot The Head: Kill the Ghoul. The vinyl wasÊseemingly not masteredÊand thus the sound quality is crap - for anybody who just wants to HEAR these songs you're better off just buying the actual CD. This is purely a "collector's item" - however, Jeffrey has drawn an amazingÊ4-page comic book for the sleeve of this single, currently unavailable anywhere else, and all copies are personally signed and numbered by Jeffrey. |
