Yellowjackets - The Spin - 1989 MCA / Japan Promo CD / 22P2 2905

My original US CD of The Spin was in a very nice ‘Long Box’ but sadly that was damaged on delivery - although the disc, case and booklet were fine. When I had the chance to pick up this Japanese promo for a good price I didn’t hesitate. The opener ‘Geraldine’ is a wonderful fan favorite and rightly so.

Alt-J - An Awesome Wave. Fabulous, inventive debut album from 2012. Give it a go, sounds great on vinyl.
