    The "cardboard" copies should've been labeled as another release (the real 1st press) i think...

      As it’s from Manchester, fair to say, it’s the bees knees. Great album. My copy has the misspelling on the spine but just a regular art printed inner. DNAP 😂🐝🐝

        Do the pictures really show the first pressing? My variant has just one pressing ring, but runouts A1 / B1 as stated.

          LC (Lotta Continua) was not an anarchist slogan but an italian extra parliament comunist movement very popular amongst young people during the 70's.

            I agree with mundayschild, this is a wonderful album which certainly rivals "The Return Of..." in of ethereal beauty and serenity. Seems to be a kind of "missing link" album in my mind between lots of different styles - the presence of vocals and the somewhat lo-fi production values give it a shoegaze/dreampop feel, while it is still certainly in the realm of Vini's trademark post-punk-jazzguitar-indie rock sound. Very good.

              It's a matter of opinion but some people really do have cloth ears. This LP contains the wonderfully melancholic 'Never Known' with it's gentle guitar picking and drum machine phasing. A timeless piece of music. Overall this is a pleasant and gentle LP.
