X-Ray-Spex - Identity 7'' (1978)

And after getting a mention in the last posting,it seems appropriate to post some X-Ray-Spex. Probably the best band not yet on this blog (until now) Without doubt one of the most original bands to come out of the UK Punk scene and probably one of the most missed too.This one came on pink vinyl if you were one of the first 15,000 to buy it. I don't know where the other 14,999 are but I'm glad I still own this classic. The B side is great as well.


Tracks


1) Identity
2) Lets Submerge

Thanks for the comment Altcerf. If I were you I'd go it!

I just hope it's still there. It's $12 Canadian..Is that a reasonable price to pay for?

Longy said...

If its in pink vinyl then yes. If not check out the ebay prices as it will probably be cheaper on there if you keep checking.

It's pink vinyl..I'll get it for sure on Sat..Thanks for your help.

No worries mate. Theres actually a pink vinyl Identity and an Orange Vinyl The Day World Turned Day-Glo on ebay at the moment - starting price £6 - very cheap if it stays that way (which it probably won't)
